Bioenergy & Europe : new report



This report, EEA Report No 7/2006, published by the European Environment Agency, examines the potential increase in the amount of energy generated from biomass before it starts placing additional pressures on the environment (e.g. on water and soil resources, biodiversity, and farmland). The report assesses the environmentally-compatible bioenergy potential from the sectors of agriculture, forestry and waste in European Union for the years 2010, 2020 and 2030. The report is available to download as a PDF file at http://www.eea.europa.eu/publications/eea_report_2006_7
