COSCO SHIPPING Europe’s Post

The use of biomass for energy (bioenergy) provides a fundamentally different least cost approach to achieving a low carbon economy compared to all other renewable energy forms. Biomass use and bioenergy can: - substitute for all fossil fuel uses for any energy application and is carbon neutral, - contribute to carbon storage (remove GHG from the atmosphere) - provides significant opportunities to address environmental issues arising from optimisation of land use (eg pastoral intensification and landfilling) - Provide many opportunities for regional economic growth and employment based on our under-utilsed land resource. Also, it contributes widely to the New Zealand economy. #ANZBIG #anzbc21 #biochar #bioenergy #carbondrawdown #circulareconomy #environment #sustainability #organicfarming #agriculture #organicagriculture #regenerativeagriculture #animalhealth #farmingtechnology #climatechange #renewableenergy

"K" line (Kawasaki Kisen Kaisha, Ltd)has signed a marine #biofuel supply contract with World Fuel Services, facilitating the use of B100 biofuel, a 100% #biodiesel, for the car carrier Apollon Highway. The ship was supplied with the biofuel at #Zeebrugge, Belgium, on March 31st and began its test voyage on April 1st, completing it on April 30th. The biofuel used this time was made from renewable organic resources such as biomass, avoiding the use of raw materials that compete with food and feed.

📢Calling all researchers! We're hosting a special topic on "Biomass Use and its Health and Environmental Effects". Biomass is a promising renewable resource, but its utilization can have unintended consequences. This topic delves into the positive and negative impacts of using biomass for energy, materials, and more. ♻️ ☘️We welcome submissions on various aspects of biomass use, including: ▪️ Different utilization methods (residential fuel, biochar, etc.) ▪️ Air and indoor air pollution ▪️ Health impacts ▪️ Environmental considerations ⏰Submit your abstract by 30 July 2025! 🕔Manuscript submission deadline : 30 September 2025 🔗Learn more and submit here: https://brnw.ch/21wLsGh #biomass #renewableenergy #sustainability #climatechange #publichealth #environment

[Alternative energy - B100 ♻] B100 is a 100% plant-based biofuel made from French rapeseed. 3 characteristics to know about B100: ▶ Greehouse Gas: up to 60% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions compared with diesel fuel ▶ Air quality: up to 80% reduction in NOx and fine particle emissions ▶ Production: co-product of feed oil and non-GMO oilcake for livestock in France. French rapeseed does not involve deforestation or land reallocation under the European Commission's RED II renewable energy directive. Our network of B100 tanks enables us to offer you a decarbonization solution that is compatible with the requirements of the LEZs, since this fuel is Crit'Air 1 approved. Our aim: to help you reduce your carbon footprint. Would you like to find out more about B100? 📲 Contact Mathieu Hussenot, our alternative energies specialist, [email protected]   #Biofuels #CO2 #GHG

#FoodWaste is Garbage or Renewable Hydrogen Treasure? If just 5 #garbage trucks of separately collected #organic #waste “waste to value conversion” can reduce #CO2 emissions by 4,750 MT, imagine the emissions reduction if 20 million tons /year of unused biomass from Turkey’s #municipal solid waste were converted to #renewablehydrogen or #sustainableaviationfuel. Thanks to Raven SR for the leading developments and approaches to create #circular ecosystems via Renewable #Hydrogen.

We are at the North American Biochar Conference with BioMass Energy Techniques Inc! Come have a conversation about Biochar production and Sustainable waste-to-energy #SW2E systems with Jason Holtz, Henry Giesbrecht, and Derrick Giesbrecht. Today's waste, tomorrow's energy. #SW2E #biochar2024 #environment #environmentalsustainability

👀 Our new CONCITO brief on BioCCS in the EU is out now 👀 🏭 BioCCS will be needed to a limited extent to contribute to EU climate targets (e.g. for some biogenic emissions from waste incineration, biogas upgrading, and cement). 🌍 Creating incentives for BioCCS should be approached in full consideration of the associated risks for climate (potential negative impact on land carbon sinks) and the environment (possible pressures on biodiversity and food production). 🌳 Prioritisation and stronger regulation of the rising and competing use of biomass is needed in parallel with incentivizing the deployment of BioCCS to avoid lock-in of high biomass use for purposes that could be served by other means, e.g. electrification. 🎯 Additional EU policies need to be considered to ensure a sustainable deployment including 1) creating appropriate financial incentives, 2) putting in place a pricing mechanism to reflect possible losses in the land sector, and 3) improving monitoring and reporting of BioCCS and biomass use. 🗣 Reach out to Hanne Vermeulen and I if you want to exchange views on the topic.

We've published a new CONCITO brief on how to ensure a sustainable deployment of BioCCS in the EU! If you would like to discuss this topic, don't hesistate to reach out to me and my good colleague Martin Birk Rasmussen
