Abstract
A workshop entitled ‘Greenhouse gas credits trade versus biomass trade – weighing
the benefits’, jointly organised by IEA Bioenergy Tasks 38 (GHG Balances of
Biomass and Bioenergy Systems) and 40 (Sustainable International Bioenergy Trade:
Securing Supply and Demand), and ENOVA, took place in Trondheim, Norway in
April 2006.
Trade in biomass fuels, electricity from renewable resources, renewable certificates
and CO2 credits provide options for business and policy makers to use biomass
available in other parts of the globe to reduce GHG emissions, increase renewable
energy and meet increasing energy demands.
