[edit] Introduction and general considerations
Biomass potentials list the annual potentials (e.g. in dry mass or heat value) for different feedstocks in different regions. They may also associate costs with different potentials.
Feedstocks include, for example, primary forestry products, forestry residues, energy fuel crops, agricultural residues, manure, waste, etc.
Sustainability concerns have been raised about some feedstocks, focusing on emissions from land use change, competition with food crops, competition with other uses (straw for animal feed/bedding, wood for building/furniture) and loss of biodiversity. As a result estimates of sustainable potentials can vary widely depending on assumptions and the methodology used.
There are also many different pathways for the use of biomass in the energy system, such as direct combustion for dry, solid feedstocks, anaerobic digestion to produce biogas for wet feedstocks, and gasification for some dry feedstocks.

Categorises potentials and costs for EU28 and neighbouring countries (Iceland, Switzerland, Norway and the Western Balkans countries). Has different scenarios for sustainability. "The High, Medium and Low bioenergy availability scenarios differ in assumptions related to land use, agricultural practices, and protected areas." Data only available as tables in the PDF report.
