Collaborative project: Innovative concepts and business models for bioenergy villages – climate friendly, democratic, and proximate to the people (Energiedorf)

Project


Project code: 22405817
Contract period: 01.02.2019 - 31.01.2022
Budget: 446,703 Euro
Purpose of research: Inventory & Assessment
Keywords: bioenergy villages, conception, ressource management, recycling, renewable ressources

The main goal of the project is to prepare the German bioenergy villages for the time period when the earnings based on the Renewable Energy Act will end after 20 years of a guaranteed feed in tariff. In an interdisciplinary project team, processes which can be transferred to existing bioenergy villages will be developed as a kind of blue print and thus offer opportunities for a continuation of their business operations. The core area of the project is a catalogue of measures that are prepared in theory first and afterwards are evaluated in real world laboratories. Main focus of the measures is put on the use of residual materials, ecologically optimized crop growing, the implementation of regional green electricity marketing, the connection to regional markets for flexibilities as well as the use of additional energy technologies.
