Title Triggering The Creation Of Biomass Logistic Centres By The Agro-Industry
Year 2015
Published
Abstract SUCELLOG project aims to widespread the participation of the agrarian sector in the sustainable supply of solid biomass in Europe. The project focuses on the implementation of logistic centres in the agro-industries as a complement to their usual activity in France, Italy, Spain and Austria. Some industries are equipped with pelletisers, drying systems etc. and work in most cases under seasonal regime. These facilities can be utilised in the idle periods to handle and pre-treat biomass feedstock obtained from different agrarian residues existing in the area to produce quality solid biomass. This paper presents the major activities and outcomes of the project. The project offers technical support to 4 selected European agro-industries aiming to start new agro-industry logistic centres in their facilities by providing an evaluation of their boundary conditions, a complete business model for the company and monitoring the operation during their first production season. A start-up diagnosis and an auditing service will be provided to another 80 agro-industries who are interested in the project concept. Furthermore, the project will create capacity building in regional and national agrarian associations which in turn will provide support services to their associates also in other regions and countries.
