    Goals / Remit

    The Sustainable Biomass Partnership (SBP) is a European industry-led initiative with a vision to enable an economically, environmentally and socially sustainable solid biomass supply chain that contributes to a low carbon economy.

    It aims to achieve its visions by: providing an effective mechanism that enables producers and users of solid biomass for energy production to demonstrate compliance with European and national regulatory requirements and to align with existing widely accepted sustainability standards; promoting enhanced sustainable forest management and greater uptake of existing efficient and internationally recognised, third party verified forest certification schemes in key forest source areas or wood baskets; contributing to a strengthened scientific evidence base and a greater understanding of the issues associated with the use of solid biomass for energy production; and delivering increased transparency of supply chain performance and data.
