Bio+ launches new call for projects!

Do you want to build new knowledge or have solutions that can accelerate and promote the transition to a sustainable and bio-based society?

A resilient and competitive bioeconomy in Sweden requires significant amounts of biomass and more efficient use and reuse of residual streams that can contribute to increased supply security. A fundamental principle is that the biomass should be used resource-efficiently and be based on sustainable value chains, economically, ecologically, and socially.

Apply for support

In the newly opened Bio+ call, it is possible to apply for support for research and innovation projects that:

• Increase the understanding of the role of biomass in a broader industrial and energy system perspective
• Build knowledge on how policy instruments, regulations, and behaviors affect the bioeconomy, the complex interactions in the energy system, and adjacent industries or sectors
• Promote the energy and climate transition through industrial renewal, new solutions, or value chains linked to the bioeconomy.

Prioritized project areas

This call welcomes projects in the following areas:

• Biomass and bio-based solutions (including projects based on the blue bioeconomy)
• Sustainability, societal perspective, and system analysis (projects addressing complex system issues and system solutions in the area)
• Market and commercialization (business-driven projects in industrial research, experimental development, and feasibility studies)
• International cooperation

Scope

The call encompasses approximately 70 Million SEK.
