Thanks to Bioenergy Europe for hosting a fantastic #EBF2024 conference last week! Our very own Vice President, Global Policy Andrew Georgiou participated in an insightful panel discussion about biomass supply in the European Policy Landscape. Sustainable biomass is a limited resource, but it is not particularly scarce at the moment. Policy should support its continued growth and reflect its vital?importance in achieving 2040 energy and climate targets. We’re honored to have been part of this important dialogue. ?? #SustainableEnergy #BiomassSolutions #ClimateAction #USIPA #RenewableEnergy #BioenergyEurope #Success
