Bioenergy is valuable for a secure, sustainable, fossil-free and competitive future.
To quickly achieve fossil freedom while meeting society’s growing demand for energy, the pace of the energy transition must increase.
Bioenergy is a key component of the transition. It is a flexible, versatile, dispatchable, and storable energy source that contributes to a secure energy supply, strengthened Swedish competitiveness, an effective climate transition, and reduced import dependency.
Bioenergy is valuable in an energy landscape with increasing shares of weather-dependent production and self-sufficiency.



About Bio+
Bio+ aims to strengthen and increase the understanding of the role of bioenergy in a sustainable, resilient, and robust energy system. The program will contribute to the energy, climate, research, and industrial policy objectives, as well as to the three fundamental pillars of energy policy: security of supply, competitiveness, and environmental sustainability.

The Bio+ program runs between 2021 and 2030.
Since 2021, Bio+ has funded
over 100 projects
…with timeschedules from
three months to five years
The total budget for Bio+ is
