EBRI combines expertise in thermochemical, biological and catalytic conversion of biomass to develop sustainable energy systems that can deliver solutions for energy and bioproducts from sustainable resources in a regional and global context.

EBRI’s goal is to use sustainable resources to deliver an affordable, resilient and low-carbon energy future. We will do this by pursuing 3 cross-cutting and 1 integrative objective applied to our core experimental capabilities in thermochemical, catalytic and biological conversion of biomass and waste. These are:

• 1. Characterise feedstocks and products
• 2. Measure conversion/technology performance
• 3. Model process energetic, economic and environmental performance
• 4. Integrate expertise in supply chains, markets, policy and regulation to develop sustainable systems
