The assembled consortium consists of leading research groups and key bioenergy companies in Norway – both large and medium sized – as well as trade organisations for bioenergy and two large foreign firms. Together, these companies cover the whole breadth of the biomass value chains based on forest products or organic waste materials, from raw materials to the end-users of energy.
