DEFINING SUCCESSFUL CRITERIA FOR REGIONAL BIOECONOMIES DEVELOPMENT

Summary/Abstract: The paper is devoted to defining successful criteria for regional bioeconomies development. It is defined that the domestic production of biomass can result in a cheaper supply of biomass than would otherwise be available, however practical experience of the regional partners. A successful bioeconomy is one that maximises both the supply-side and demand-side of the market to ensure both that it is able to produce, and sell, bioeconomy products and services. Bioeconomy can be split into three distinct market segments; the sectors that supply biomass, those that convert biomass into intermediate products and those that bring biobased end-products to market. It is given such successful regional bioeconomies criteria: environmental, economic and social. Each criterion is matched with a bioeconomy model characteristic and a market model driver, agents that help the corresponding models function.
