Sectors such as agri-food, chemicals, paper, and wood demonstrate that bioenergy is a technically and economically viable option, as is also the case in areas such as district heating networks, which in our country already serve hundreds of thousands of homes and service buildings and have eliminated thousands of heating systems that used fossil fuels. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span><span>In the future, and even more so if we add the injection of biomethane into fossil gas distribution networks, we will be able to eliminate hundreds of thousands of tons of harmful emissions from populations and continue to advance in the fight against climate change.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><span><span>For our part, we continue to support the growth of bioenergy with the celebration of the fourth edition of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salondelgasrenovable.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">RENEWABLE GAS HALL<\/a> and from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.congresobioenergia.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">17th INTERNATIONAL BIOENERGY CONGRESS<\/a> October 1st and 2nd of this year, and the fair <a href=\"https:\/\/www.expobiomasa.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">EXPOBIOMASA<\/a>, By May 2025, the number of companies showcasing innovative biomass-based technologies continues to grow, and thanks to them we will be able to meet our goals for 2030 and 2050.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/tinyurl.com\/BN10-sep24-avebiom\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Access Biomass News magazine no. 10 <\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>La electrificaci\u00f3n de la econom\u00eda resuena en los o\u00eddos de los ciudadanos de la UE como la soluci\u00f3n preferida por nuestros responsables pol\u00edticos para que podamos cumplir los objetivos clim\u00e1ticos y de rebaja de las emisiones comprometidos para 2030 y en \u00faltima instancia en 2050.
