Creation of regional added value by regional bioenergy resources

Abstract

In debates about the positive effects of renewable and bioenergy projects the aspect of generating regional added value is discussed widely. But the real effects, generated by this regional added value stayed up to now on a non-measurable level. In order to expedite the calculation of these important figures, the author presents a field tested method for confidently arriving at useful values. This methodology takes into consideration the ecological, economical and social impact of a given biomass project's implementation. The model enables a comparison between the different renewable energy plants as well as between them and plants and technology of competing alternatives. Regional authorities are hereby enabled to count on a tool for confidently measuring the possible results of various bioenergy utilization technologies. With this knowledge at hand, they could then take qualified decisions towards positive effects for their region. The developed tool allows the definition of adjustable parameters, and therefore it is able to influence the regional framework regarding a more sustainable development.
