Greenhouse Gas Calculation in RED
E = eec + el + ep + etd + eu – esca – eccs – eccr – eee [g CO2-eq/MJbiofuel] *)
E = (Efossil – Ebiofuel) / Efossil [%] > 35% (50%, 60%) E = total emissions from the use of the biofuel;
eec = emissions from the extraction or cultivation of raw materials;
el = annualized emissions from carbon stock changes caused by land-use change;
ep = emissions from processing;
etd = emissions from transport and distribution;
eu = emissions from the fuel in use;
esca = emission saving from soil carbon accumulation via improved agricult. management;
eccs = emission saving from carbon capture and geological storage;
eccr = emission saving from carbon capture and replacement; and
eee = emission saving from excess electricity from cogeneration.
Emissions from the manufacture of machinery and equipment shall not be taken into account *) values calculated in terms of g CO2-eq/MJ may be adjusted to take into account
differences between fuels in useful work done, expressed in terms of km/MJ.

Green Bioethanol for Green Styria in a Pulp and Paper Biorefinery
„Feasibility analysis for the production of bioethanol
in the Styrian paper and pulp industry”
Integrated production of biofuels from wood in pulp&paper
industry many technical, economic&infrastructural advantages
Bioethanol from Sulfite Spent liquor commercial possible of about
0.6 €/lgasoline-eq., but amounts are limited 10,000 – 20,000 t/a
Bioethanol from wood still precommercial, bioethanol costs about
1 €/lgasoline-eq, demonstration plant next step
Greenhouse gas reduction 60-80%$
Funded by: Projectpartners:
Land Use Issues Could reduce soil organic carbon during first 20 years
Limited number of studies
Dependant on:
Reference use of crop residues;
Amount of crop residues removed
Crop yields;
Existing stable soil carbon content;
Climate; and
Clay content
Can be mitigated by (for example):
Increasing yield (fertilization);
Change of tillage practices; and
Returning ash to land

Algae - A Future Renewable Austrian Energy Source?
Optimal&efficient algae use: bio-refinery for bioenergy&biomaterials
Photobioreactors most promissing technology due to Austrian climate
Obstacles in Austria: climate: sunshine duration, temperature
area demand: no non-arable land in Austria, especially in the surroundings of CO2 sources
Contribution of algae energy in Austrian energy system
probably low medium term (“piloting”)
possible in a long term
R&D demand: cultivation
algae production with waste water treatment
harvesting
hydrothermal processes

Direct (dLUC) and indirect Land Use Change (iLUC)
Direct Land Use Change (dLUC):
If for cultivation of energy crops a direct land use change takes place,
e.g. from pasture agricultural land. Direct effects can be calculated, e.g.
change of carbon storage pools.
Indirect Land Use Change (iLUC):
if existing agricultural land is now used for energy crops, which was
used for other product before. The demand for these products remain
and additional land is used causing land use change on global scale,
e.g. conversion of natural forests into agricultural land. Indirect effects
can be calculated after localisation, which is difficult on global level.

Based on own estimations: October 2012
Higher biofuel blending necessary:
introduction E10&B10 (or higher) or dedicated fleets with high blending
Market introduction of biofuels from wood&straw
Conclusions
Austrian biofuels reduce greenhouse gas intensity of
road fuels already by 3.1%
21 PJ biofuels are 6.3% of the 330 PJ Austrian road
transportation fuels
Austria has already 7.7% renewable fuels on the market: renewable
electricity for rail transport and biofuels for road transport
EU targets 2020: 10% renewable fuels transport
sector + 6% reduction GHG intensity road fuels
Biofuels are reality in Austria and their
importance will further grow
Further increase of biofuel production in
Austria possible, mainly from wood&straw
