Achieving a thorough
development of bioenergy
in most regions of the European Union is a challenge.
MAKE-IT-BE is a contribution to meet this challenge.

MAKE-IT-BE is a new EC-DG TREN (Transport and Energy) project, which is co-financed by the Intelligent Energy - Europe programme, managed by the Executive Agency for Competitiveness & Innovation (EACI). The project focuses on decision-making and implementation tools for local and regional bioenergy chains.

The MAKE-IT-BE project is aimed at delivering agendas for bio-energy promotion in 4 EU Regions (Austria, Italy, Slovenia and UK) by developing and applying decision-making tools that assist in extensively identifying, evaluating and initiating bio-energy chains.

MAKE-IT-BE is working on methods for mapping biomass supply and demand at a local level, using and developing adaptable tools. The overall project objective is to convert the general targets of bioenergy promotion of 4 EU Regions into concrete agendas for delivery of bio-energy chains. A long term results of the project will be the increased share of bio-energy throughout Europe by means of Regional Biomass Action Plans.
