Helle Osmer Clausen, program director at the CIP Foundation presents main drivers for the market as well as market impediments for biochar in Denmark. The project covers market perspectives ranging from the availability of relevant feedstock to potential climate effects, scaling of technology, carbon markets and the business case behind biochar as well as the evolving regulatory framework and socio-economic effects of biochar. The webinar also touches upon the latest developments, global production of biochar and potential future drivers.
