NABIS in Germany Aims to Ensure the Sustainable Use of Biomass from the Waste Management, Agriculture, and Forestry Industries | CBCGDF Media Reports

 Germany's biomass policy aims to achieve climate protection, biodiversity conservation, and a sustainable use of resources. The National Biomass Strategy (NABIS) in Germany released in October 6th, 2022, aims to ensure the sustainable use of biomass from the waste management, agriculture, and forestry industries.  

The sustainable production and use of biomass can contribute to the necessary transformation of Germany’s economic system and make a long-term contribution towards achieving climate and biodiversity goals as well as the energy transition. Biomass is already used for materials and energy applications across different sectors, but there are no superordinate governance mechanisms steering this finite resource.

The strategy's key points include: 

lClimate change mitigation: The strategy aims to help Germany transition to greenhouse gas neutrality. 

lBiodiversity protection: The strategy aims to protect biodiversity. 

lFood security: The strategy aims to secure the supply of food and energy. 

lSustainable use: The strategy aims to ensure the sustainable production and use of biomass. 

lResource efficiency: The strategy aims to ensure the resource-efficient production and use of biomass. 

lPrinciples: The strategy is based on the principles of preserving natural ecosystems, the food first principle, and the use of sustainably available biomass potential. 

lPathways: The strategy identifies pathways for 2030 and 2045. 

In this new strategy for biomass use, Germany plans to focus on recycling, efficient decarbonisation solutions, and using it as a material rather than a fuel for energy. The strategy covers the biomass approach until 2030, is being devised to ensure sustainable biomass production and use in Germany,  according to the government. The plan will consider the potential of sustainably available biomass, the conservation of natural ecosystems, and the food-first principle.
