Abstract This is the shorter PowerPoint version of the final report from the RELB Project. This D10 presentation highlights the findings from the RELB work packages:
  • Review of existing studies – a review of past estimates in the literature of land availability for new perennial energy crops and new Short Rotation Forestry production in the UK and Europe;
  • Desk and Field studies – report of and findings from the validation exercises carried out;
  • Mini case studies – individual reports on the three 50x50 km cells assessed in the field study;
  • Opportunities and barriers – report of desk study undertaken to understand why bioenergy crop production does not currently utilise the ‘available’ land and to identify opportunities to increase planting;
  • Final summary and conclusions
For the detailed version of this report, thereader should see deliverable D9 which is provided in Microsoft Word format.
