Webinar | Biomass Availability & Sector Competition

This webinar and report are the output from a small project running in 2021 between the shipping company Maersk A/S,
the research foundation Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller Center for Zero Carbon Shipping, and University of
Southern Denmark.

Aims of the project

  • Provide an overview of recent scientific consensus on future potentials of biomass that are
    estimated to be sustainably available for non-food/feed purposes, i.e. as feedstock for energy, fuels and materials/chemicals

  • Provide an overview of potential demands for carbon-based fuels and feedstock from all key
    sectors and some insight into the green transition strategies pursued by the sector.

  • Get some understanding of the proportions between potential biomass supply and demand in
    order to understand future competition for biomass feedstock

  • Provide an understanding of alternatives to bioenergy, i.e. electrification, hydrogen, ammonia, and
    electrofuels made from CO2 and hydrogen, and if possible provide an understanding of price/cost developments of biofuels and electrofuels
