The Bioenergy Network of Excellence (NoE) is a pan-European group of
eight leading research institutes in bioenergy. The NoE moves beyond
traditional networks and international collaborations to substantially
integrate the activities and expertise of eight leading bioenergy
institutes into a Virtual Bioenergy R&D Centre. By merging the
expertise, facilities and resources of the partners, the NoE will
identify barriers and conduct integrated research that can move
bioenergy into the European marketplace. For more information on the
NoE's research, partners and objectives please visit the website.
