What is the Bioenergy Association?
The Bioenergy Association represents its members based in New Zealand and Australia. We provide assistance and a wealth of bioenergy information to support members' business and promote their expertise and capabilities for undertaking activities in New Zealand, Australian and the South Pacific with regards to bioenergy and biofuels related solutions.

Our members include land and forestry owners, wood processors, feedstock suppliers, fuel and energy suppliers, equipment supplies, manufacturers, consultants, contractors, energy researchers, educators, regulators and investors. We advocate to Government on bioenergy related policy, develop best practice Technical Guides for New Zealand and Australia, host workshops and webinars and assist potential investors in bioenergy based solutions to assess technologies, market opportunities and market risks.
