Biofuel

Focus area 8: Bio-based materials

Biofuels are very much in the spotlight, it is difficult to make a correct judgement on them.

Questions

  1. What is biomass and where does it come from
  2. Why is it not used locally
  3. Transport costs from "door" to "door" (+CO2)
  4. Is there enough biomass available for all our plans (and for other countries?)
  5. Is biomass burnt or is it first made into biogas
  6. Is the CO2 uptake balanced with the CO2 released during combustion.
