Abstract

The sustainable management of renewable resources is one of the crucial pillars in the encouraged transition from a fossil-based economy towards a sustainable bioeconomy in Germany. In order to support the current strategic actions, endorsed by the National Bioeconomy Strategy (2020), a broad range of information about the bioeconomy must be generated in terms of available biomass sources and their uses. This study presents a contribution towards bioeconomy knowledge, with the calculations and depiction of the biomass flows of production and use in the German bioeconomy. First, the system boundaries for this study were established. The system includes agriculture, forest and biogenic residues and waste as biomass producing and generating sectors, and food, feed, material, and energy as biomass use sectors. Further, the net trade of biomass was considered. An extensive collection and processing of available official data and its harmonisation was carried out and validated with experts. Core of the study was the construction of a biomass flow Sankey diagram for the year 2015. Our results showed, that the most important consumer of the agricultural biomass was the food and feed sector with about 95 million tons of dry matter. The total amount of biomass from biogenic residues and waste summed up to 32 million tons of dry matter, of which 22 million tons of dry matter were used by the energy sector. The forest sector produced around 33 million tons of dry matter of woody biomass, of which around 20 million tons of dry matter forest biomass was used as solid fuel.

Abstract

Der Bioökonomie wird ein erhebliches Potenzial in einer weitreichenden Umgestaltung zu einer nachhaltigerenWirtschaft zugesprochen. Diese Umgestaltung bedeutet weg von der Abhängigkeit von endlichen fossilenRohstoffen hin zu einer Ökonomie, die erneuerbare bio-basierte Rohstoffe zur Grundlage hat. Die Bioökonomie hat bereits jetzt in verschiedenen Wirtschaftsbereichen eine hohe Relevanz (Efken et al., 2012; Junker et al., 2014; Iost et al., 2019). Dennoch ist der Gedanke eines nachhaltigen bioökonomischen Wirtschaftens in großen Teilen der Ökonomie noch nicht weit verbreitet. Die Grundlage einer Umorientierung zu einer bio-basierten Wirtschaft bilden zahlreiche und zukunftsweisende Innovationen im Bereich der bio-basierten Produkt- und Verfahrensentwicklung.

Abstract

Bioenergy is an important renewable energy carrier with uncertainties in future development due to sustainability issues. Its further development requires a robust bioenergy strategy on a national level. To provide these strategy elements, we developed a dedicated approach, which includes a new modeling framework, an impact assessment and stakeholder involvement. Demonstrating the approach on the example of Germany, four bioenergy utilization scenarios for a period up to 2050 have been assessed using seven indicators that cover aspects from local infrastructure to global food security. The devised strategy elements address the national and international feedstock supply, promising fields of utilization and appropriate frame conditions. The results coherently address a wide range of policy fields, something which has not been possible in the past.

14. Model collaboration for the improved assessment of biomass supply, demand and impacts

Abstract

Existing assessments of biomass supply and demand and their impacts face various types of limitations and uncertainties, partly due to the type of tools and methods applied (e.g. partial representation of sectors, lack of geographical details, aggregated representation of technologies involved). Improved collaboration between existing modeling approaches may provide new, more comprehensive insights, especially into issues that involve multiple economic sectors, different temporal and spatial scales or various impact categories. Model collaboration consists of aligning and harmonizing input data and scenarios, model comparison and/or model linkage. Improved collaboration between existing modeling approaches can help assess (i) the causes of differences and similarities in model output, which is important for interpreting the results for policy-making, and (ii) the linkages, feedbacks and trade-offs between different systems and impacts (e.g. economic and natural), which is key to a more comprehensive understanding of the impacts of biomass supply and demand. But, full consistency or integration in assumptions, structure, solution algorithm, dynamics and feedbacks can be difficult to achieve. And, if it is done, it frequently implies a tradeoff in terms of resolution (spatial, temporal, structural) and/or computation. Three key research areas are selected to illustrate how model collaboration can provide additional ways for tackling some of the shortcomings and uncertainties in the assessment of biomass supply and demand and their impacts. These research areas are livestock production, agricultural residues and greenhouse gas emissions from land use change. Describing how model collaboration might look like in these examples, we show how improved model collaboration can strengthen our ability to project biomass supply, demand and impacts. This in turn can aid in improving the information for policy-makers and in taking better-informed decisions.

19. Will improved access to capital dampen the need for more agricultural land? A CGE analysis of agricultural capital markets and world-wide biofuel policies

Abstract

This paper analyses the consequences of enhanced biofuel production in regions and countries of the world that have announced plans to implement or expand on biofuel policies. The analysis considers biofuel policies implemented as binding blending targets for transportation fuels. The chosen quantitative modelling approach is two-fold: it combines the analysis of biofuel policies in a multi-sectoral economic model (MAGNET) with systematic variation of the functioning of capital and labour markets.This paper adds to existing research by considering biofuel policies in the EU, the US and various other countries with considerable agricultural production and trade, such as Brazil, India and China. Moreover, the application multi-sectoral modelling system with different assumptions on the mobility of factor markets allows for the observation of changes in economic indicators under different conditions of how factor markets work.Systematic variation of factor mobility indicates that the ‘burden’ of global biofuel policies is not equally distributed across different factors within agricultural production. Agricultural land, as the pre-dominant and sector-specific factor, is, regardless of different degrees of inter-sectoral or intra-sectoral factor mobility, the most important factor limiting the expansion of agricultural production. More capital and higher employment in agriculture will ease the pressure on additional land use – but only partly. To expand agricultural production at global scale requires both land and mobile factors adapted to increase total factor productivity in agriculture in the most efficient way.

Abstract

How to feed the growing world populations and fulfil and reduce climate change impact at the same time is one of the key challenges in the world. This enormous challenge implies an increasing complexity and interconnectivity of for example the agricultural, land and energy using sectors and disciplines. The issues become so complex that modelling teams have to work together to contribute to this challenge. The philosophy of MAGNET (Modular Applied GeNeral Equilibrium Tool) is in line with the GTAP philosophy to lower entry barriers for CGE analyses and it aims to facilitate working in (cross-institutional) modelling teams for more complex models. MAGNET is a modular global CGE model that covers the whole economy and has been used extensively in agricultural, environmental and trade policy analysis. MAGNET builds on the global general equilibrium Global Trade Analysis Project (GTAP) model and is the successor of LEITAP (Meijl, et al. 2006, Banse et al. 2008). MAGNET adopts a modular approach, whereby the standard GTAP-based core can be augmented with modules depending on the purpose of the study. Therefore MAGNET contains some institutional innovations and is supported by various tools. It supports more users, more developers, larger flexibility, greater reliability and more attractive (tools). Currently the system is used at LEI-WUR, JRC-IPTS and vTI.

Abstract

The increased use and potential growth of biomass for energy has triggered a heated debate on the sustainability of those developments as biomass production is now also associated with increased competition with food and feed production, loss of forest cover and the like. Besides such competition, also the net reduction in greenhouse gas emissions is questioned in case land-use for biomass is associated with clearing forest, with conversion of peat land, as well as with high fossil energy inputs for machinery, fertilisers and other agrochemicals. Although available studies give a reasonable insight in the importance of various parameters, the integration between different arenas is still limited. This causes confusion in public as well as scientific debate, with conflicting views on the possibilities for sustainable use of biomass as a result. This study aims to tackle this problem by providing a more comprehensive assessment of the current knowledge with respect to biomass resource potentials.
