Call for proposals under the 2016 work plan of the Bio-based Industries Public-Private Partnership H2020-BBI-JTI-2016 Closed!
Objectives
The expected impact for the projects funded under this call for proposals is:
- Increased forest wood biomass productivity per hectare by 20% or more.
- Stabilisation of supply for woody raw material, hence helping retain the competitiveness of the European forest-based sector, while achieving higher income for forest owners due to increased wood productivity and improved mobilisation.
- The result of projects under this topic should result in the demonstration of 1 new building block based on biomass of European origin validated at demonstration scale (KPI 4) and/or at least 1 new bio-based material (KPI 5).
- Contribution to other BBI JU Key Performance Indicators (KPI), specifically:
- Creation of at least 1 new cross-sectorial interconnection in bio-based economy clusters (KPI 1).
