CENBIO - Enabling sustainable and cost-efficient bioenergy in Norway

Partners

CenBio constitutes the national team for stationary bioenergy use, and coordinates and integrates expertise from diverse scientific fields.

Partners

The consortium consists of leading research groups and key bioenergy companies in Norway – both large and medium sized – as well as trade organisations for bioenergy. Together, these companies cover the whole breadth of the biomass value chains based on forest products or organic waste materials, from raw materials to the end-users of energy.
