Wshop191112: Evidence for delivering liquid biofuels to NZ

We would like to thank our event sponsors:

EECA Business, Scania Australia, Miscanthus New Zealand, Solray Systems, and Blended Fuels Solutions

    

The Interim Climate Change Committee (ICCC) has been looking at ways to incorporate stakeholder evidence and information to support development of New Zealand’s first three emissions budgets out to 2035.  The ICCC has called for evidence on options available to reduce greenhouse gas emissions over the period 2022 to 2035.  Other government agencies are also considering the opportunities from using biomass and waste to produce liquid biofuels to reduce transport and process heat greenhouse gas emissions. This workshop shared evidence from current and proposed liquid biofuels projects, identify those aspects which make projects successful, and identify barriers where new policies or assistance would assist get more projects committed.  

Background reading

• GHG emissions reduction from transport biofuels, Information Sheet 33
• Green Freight Project, Ministry of Transport
• Call for evidence, Interim Climate Change Committee - Evidence is to be provided to the ICCC by 15 November.  If you are making a submission please could you also provide a copy to executive@bioenergy.org.nz so that your points can be incorporated into the submission being prepared by the Bioenergy Association.
