The Bioenergy Association of Ukraine within the AgroBioHeat project together with the project “Ukraine Agri-Food Value Chain TA Project (UAFATA)” invites you to visit an online seminar with a virtual site visit to Ukrainian and Danish heat production facilities on agrobiomass.
The purpose of the virtual Ukrainian-Danish Site Visit to Agrobiomass Heat Production Facilities is to acquaint Ukrainian stakeholders with the successful experience of straw energy production in Denmark and to demonstrate modern technologies and equipment for agrobiomass energy conversion.
Danish experts and leading domestic manufacturers of boiler equipment will share their best practices and practical experience in implementing projects for the production of thermal energy from agrobiomass with the Ukrainian audience for the sustainable implementation of modern bioenergy systems and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.

About AgroBioHeat
Project AgroBioHeat “Promoting the penetration of agrobiomass heating solutions in European rural areas” aims to produce a mass deployment of improved and market-ready agrobiomass heating solutions in Europe. Agrobiomass is a large, underexploited, and indigenous resource, which can support the achievement of the European Energy and Climate targets while promoting rural development and circular economy.
Denmark is a world leader in the production of energy from straw through the implementation of a targeted energy policy. In addition, today Denmark is a demonstration site, where the leading manufacturers of equipment operating on agrobiomass are concentrated, as well as a large number of facilities with a variety of technological solutions and parameters.
