1 Biogas and biomethane related projects in H2020 Low Carbon Energy Emilio Font de Mora INEA - European Commission 02 September 2015, Brussels FABbiogas final conference

2 INEA in short > 1 January 2014 INEA replaced TEN-T EA (the Trans- European Transport Network Executive Agency) 33 billion: largest budget of all EAs for Solid experience in programme implementation and project management Rapid expansion from 100 staff in TEN-T EA to around 300 staff managing around projects by 2020 Currently 170 staff in a team of 26 EU nationalities 4parentCommission DGs: ENER, MOVE, RTD, CNECT 2

3 INEA's programmes - CEF Transport (incl. Cohesion Fund allocation) - CEF Energy - CEF Telecomms - H2020 Transport - H2020 Energy Marco Polo legacy from period (before managed by EACI now EASME) TEN-T legacy from period 3

4 Budget to be managed by INEA (Total: 33 billion) * Subject to final approval of the European Fund for Strategic Investments (in 2015) 4

5 Secure, clean and efficient energy Low Carbon Energy portfolio Research, Innovation, Demonstration, Market Uptake Typically 2-10 million projects 5

6 INEA's H2020 Bioenergy projects per type of project 6

7 INEA's H2020 Bioenergy projects per fuel 7

8 Biogas and biomethane H2020 projects managed by INEA 3 directly related projects 2 indirectly related ones Total budget: EUR 13.9 million More information: CORDIS, The primary information source for EU-funded projects since

9 LCE-14 Bioenergy Market Uptake Market uptake of existing and emerging sustainable bioenergy Coordination and Support Actions (CSA) TRL 7-9 Similar nature of IEE projects

10 Bin2Grid Turning unexploited food waste into biomethane supplied through local filling stations network (Jan Dec. 2017) Food waste valorisation to biomethane covering all the supply chain from waste collection to fuel distribution in Zagreb (HR), Skopje (MK), Malaga (ES) & Paris (FR) Main expected impacts: - Establishment of 4 food waste separate collection systems involving restaurants and municipal companies - Stimulation of business agreements for supply chain development Budget: EUR 0.7 million Coordinator: ZCH, Croatia Website:

11 BIOSURF BIOmethane as Sustainable and Renewable Fuel (Jan Dec. 2017) Development of a European common cross-border biomethane market by promoting collaboration of national mass-balance biomethane registries and expansion to IT, HU, SE and CZ Main expected impacts: - Multi-lateral (or bilateral) Letters of agreement among the 6 BIOSURF countries for mutual acceptance of Guarantees of Origin (GoO) - Technical-administrative proposal to the European Commission for declaring the European natural gas network as a single, closed massbalancing system Budget: EUR 1.9 million Coordinator: ISIS, Italy Website:

12 SECURECHAIN Securing furuteproof environmentally compatible bioenergy chains (Apr Mar. 2018) Promoting the implementation of Sustainable Supply Chain Management (SSCM) practices in 6 EU regions to better integrate local SMEs into biomass supply, processing and bioenergy production Main expected impacts: - Providing technical and financial advice to SMEs to set bioenergy supply chains - 50 business proposals matching potential investors per proposition - At least supply chains successfully started by the end of the project Budget: EUR 1.8 million Coordinator: IIWH, Germany Website:

13 Other LCE topics LCE-2 Developing the next generation technologies of renewable electricity and heating/cooling (RIA) LCE-20 The human factor in the energy system (CSA)

14 Bio-HyPP Biogas-fired Combined Hybrid Heat and Power Plant (Jun May 2019) Demonstration of the functional capability, characterisation and optimisation of the combination of a micro gas turbine (MGT) and a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) Main expected impacts: - An almost double efficiency for micro-scale CHP systems, compared to state-of-the-art - Increase grid stability of RES thanks to operational power flexibility Budget: EUR 5.8 million Coordinator: DLR, Germany Website: N.A. yet

15 BioEnergyTrain BioenergyTrain (May 2015 Apr. 2019) Creation of new post-graduate level curricula in key bioenergy disciplines covering the whole supply chain Main expected impacts: - Two European Master curricula created: Biorefinery engineer and Value chain manager - Provide the basis to graduate the projected biorefinery engineers and bioresource value chain managers by 2030 as necessary to implement the SET-Plan Budget: EUR 3.7 million Coordinator: ESEIA, Austria Website: N.A. yet
