Aim of the joint call The BESTF joint call will support bioenergy projects in which credible processes and technologies for the production of bioenergy demonstrated. Projects may also take a multi-product or biorefinery approach, but the major focus must be energy production. The energy produced can be for electricity, direct heating, or transport fuels. The call will support the European Industrial Bioenergy Initiative (EIBI) implementation plan which links to demonstration projects. Specifically, the partners of BESTF will make sure that the joint call leads to: - Assessment and funding of bioenergy demonstration projects, in accordance with the EIBI priorities. Funding is provided by the participating national or regional funding organisations, by the EC and by industry. - Monitoring the projects. - Dissemination of non-confidential project results.
