FUELPHORIA is an EU-funded Innovation Action project that aims to establish sustainable, competitive and secure value chains from advanced biofuels and renewable fuels of non-biological origin. It will be holding a webinar to provide an overview of ongoing activities across the project's four demonstration sites in Belgium, Spain and Greece.
Biodegradable plastics are often perceived as environmentally friendly, but how true is this in practice, especially in the cold climatic conditions of Northern Europe and in anaerobic biowaste treatment?
This timely webinar explores the realities of plastic biodegradation in biowaste recycling facilities as well as soil and aquatic environments in northern climatic conditions.
In addition to fruitful discussions, this event will feature a series of interactive workshops fostering dialogue between policymakers, researchers and industry representatives. The three workshops will explore key governance challenges surrounding DPP data management, data models, interoperability and policy compliance, along with DPP policies that affect the economics of green solutions.
The workshop will bring together EU policymakers, researchers and construction stakeholders to explore how innovative materials, digital technologies and reuse strategies can together advance circularity in Europe’s built environment.
It aims to mirror the circular lifecycle of materials, from innovation and data acquisition to reuse and regeneration, and show how circular economy principles can be embedded into the construction sector.

This event will inform policy discussions taking place within several key European Parliament committees and shine a light on the multiple benefits of the bioeconomy for sustainability. It will look at the role and potential of the forest-based bioeconomy which offers renewable and circular solutions for packaging, hygiene, construction, energy and more.
On 7 November, the Commission granted over EUR 358 million to 132 new projects across Europe under the LIFE Programme for environment and climate action. Read about a few of the projects selected to promote the circular economy!
The University of Copenhagen and the Danish Ministry for Green Transition, on behalf of the European Commission, are hosting a conference which aims to advance the EU’s green transition through bioeconomy, food systems and biodiversity.
The event will explore how to boost and mainstream the bioeconomy through science, innovation and governance, using and reusing all parts of biomass.
Scaling up bio-based industries can strengthen the EU’s strategic autonomy and competitiveness, foster innovation and create growth and jobs.
The study focuses on three product classes within the bio-based industry that demonstrate significant potential for scaling up: (i) bio-based materials and chemicals, (ii) innovative food and feed ingredients and (iii) bio-based soil nutrients and enhancers.
Key recommendations include leveraging Circular Bio-based Europe Joint Undertaking flagship grant applications to build a pipeline of promising projects, expanding the European Circular Bioeconomy Fund model to enable high-risk investment in early-stage bio-based ventures, and creating an eligibility checker for bioeconomy and circular economy projects.
