🌫 ⬇ The potential of bioenergy to make a flexible contribution to the energy system is key for the achievement of global emission reduction ambitions and the functioning of the low-carbon energy system and economy.
Opportunities to provide flexibility from biobased value chains go beyond the power sector and short-term flexibility, as typically suggested in the literature. Flexible bioenergy has a unique supply-chain character as it can provide flexibility in different dimensions: in inputs as feedstock and intermediates flexibility; in outputs as flexibility through bioenergy carriers and products; and operational flexibility in terms of time and space.
