Work Programme – The Activities of Task 42

For this 2025-2027 triennium, the focus of the activities will be on:

provision of quantitative, scientifically sound, and understandable data on the technical, economic and environmental added-value of biorefining to co-produce bioenergy and chemicals and bio-products in a sustainable way.

  • This will be done by TEE Biorefinery Assessment methodology, Biorefinery Fact Sheets, Report on the techno-economic assessment of the integration between biorefinery processes and green hydrogen, Report on possibilities on green biorefineries in combination with biogas, Report on building materials made out of biorefinery outputs, Synthesis report on biorefineries based on lignocellulosic waste and side streams and their potential contribution to a circular economy);
  • Description of global implementation status, major deployment barriers and market data (Biorefinery database and portal, Biorefinery Country Reports updates and summary at end of Triennium, Report on Green Biorefinery Status);
  • Utilization of this international platform to actively stimulate cooperation and information exchange (Task42 website, lectures, webinars, broad stakeholder workshop, national stakeholder events).

The Work programme 2025-2027 consists of:

  • WP1 – Techno Economic Environmental (TEE) assessment of biorefineries
  • WP2 – Update and maintenance of the Global Biorefineries Atlas portal
  • WP3 – Current status of biorefinery deployment per country
  • WP4 – BioRefinery and Green-Hydrogen Integration Methodology (BRGHYM) – Optimization of the integration between biorefineries and green hydrogen
  • WP5 – Green biorefineries in combination with biogas production
  • WP6 – Building materials from biorefineries
  • WP7 – Systems perspective on biorefineries based on lignocellulosic waste and side streams in a circular economy
