Biomastec

Biomass alone covers 70 % of the energy production when all other renewable energy sources are put together. 90 % of heat is produced by biomass from the combustion of wood. Although wind energy still plays a crucial role in the production of electricity, the potential of biomass in this regard is not to be underestimated. In the field of fuels, biomass remains the only renewable source.The regional and worldwide available biomass should not only be used energetically but also materially so that platform molecules, bio-based materials et cetera with a high-added value could be produced. This is the vision of biomastec. The cluster sees itself as a strategic marketing and information platform to deliver innovative and efficient solutions for the efficient use of available biomass to enhance and encourage a bio-based economy not only in Germany and Europe but to the entire world.
