General information on using this digital library is presented in this part.
North Sea Bio Energy
This digital library is developed in the framework of the North Sea Bio Energy (NSBE) project. This is an international partnership between five partners in Europe. The project tries to increase the use of biomass for energy production. Bioenergy will be taken from:
- Pig and cow manure
- Wood (producing and burning of pellets and chips)
- energy crops e.g. sunflowers, rapeseed, and energy maize
In the NSBE project we’re working together with farmers, investors, consultants, researchers, experts, civil servants and politicians from the five partner countries.
