title = "Introduction to biomass supply chains",
abstract = "Biomass resources from terrestrial areas such as woodchips (wood pellets, straw), biopellets, animal manure, farm by-products, and biomass from new cropping systems as well as marine biomass (algaes of any kind) are integrated into society's needs. The mindset for shifting from fossil fuel-based economies to sustainable energy economies already exists. Bioenergy utilization systems have, for many years, been forming the basis for the change together with wind and solar energy and other renewables. These resources have great potential for energy supply chains in increasing areas of Europe and the world. Biomass sustainability issues can be solved by developing international sustainability criteria. The sustainability criteria, if agreed to internationally, could become a tool to secure the positive impacts of bioenergy and to foster international cooperation.",
