Deliverables

Template for case studies

As a starting point for all case studies, BTG will lead the work on developing a template for the case studies (D3.1). The template will cover the sections project description, supply chain and market assessment, environmental and techno-economical assessment, following the methodology of feasibility studies. Participating partners: BTG, BE2020, VTT, CERTH, ESS, EPBiH, CIEMAT, DBFZ, TFMC Relation to the task: 3.1

Report on drivers and barriers for retrofitting

in Task 42 a more general survey will be implemented with the whole industry which has not yet implemented retrofitting measures A summary of the drivers and barriers for retrofitting will be compiled as a deliverable D42 Participating partners DBFZ WRRelation to the task 42

Summary paper on retrofitting options

Options for retrofitting the energy industry with bioenergy in Europe will be presented in a summary paper for policy makers. The summary paper will show technical and non-technical information from the previous tasks, as well as highlight the opportunities, barriers and challenges in retrofitting. Participating partners: all partners Relation to tasks: 2.6, 2.1-2.5

"Handbook for non-technicians on ""Technical options for retrofitting energy industries with bioenergy"""

A handbook on Technical options for retrofitting energy industries with bioenergy will be elaborated in order to present the technical opportunities of retrofittingThe size of the handbook will be 50 100 pages and it will be provided in electronic format and as hardcopy only final version It will be elaborated in English and translated by BTG VTT CIEMAT CERTH B2020 ESS and EPBiH to the target country languages to broadly disseminate it among several EU countries The first edition will be available M12 the final version on M41Participating partners WIP BE2020 BTG VTT CERTH CIEMAT ESS EPBiHRelation to task 24

Public acceptance: recommendations for stakeholder consultation

We aim to ask a group of 3200 citizens in 4 Member States where retrofitting has been implemented about how they perceive the company and their retrofitting activitiesThe final outcome will include recommendations for integrating critical factors for social acceptance within the retrofit casesParticipating partners All partnersRelation to the task 52

Announcement of the composition of the Industrial Advisory Board

The Industrial Advisory Board (IAB) will be created at the beginning of the project in order to provide feedback to the methodology, recommendations, policy paper, surveys, etc. The IAB will be set-up with representatives of case study examples, but also from industries that will not be represented in BIOFIT by a case study. Participating partners: all partners Relation to the task: 4.1

Recommendations and lessons learned from the case studies

The project partners will discuss the lessons learned from all case studies derive recommendations from these and summarize the findings in a publishable document D36Participating partners BE2020 VTT BTG CERTH ESS EPBiH CIEMAT DBFZ TFMC BCyL SB HELPERelation to the task 37
