The deliverable D3.8 “Best practice sheet in the EIP-AGRI format”, is aimed to present the results achieved in the collection of the first 20 practices for the ENABLING project.
While being a relevant outcome for the upcoming project activities, the Document aims to be a useful and inspirational source of information for practitioners and potential stakeholders of the bioeconomy sector
This Deliverable is a matrix, with its associated instructions for compilation, provided to partners involved in T2.1 (Characterisation of biomass resources) and T2.2 (Identification of industrial processes) for the collection of information and data on biomass resources availability in the participating territories and on industrial processes and demand.
The Biomass Matrix Tool for BBPs has been developed as an Excel workbook file with a Cover Page, Maps Tool, Biomass Calculation Sheet and Industrial Processes Identification Sheet. It has been developed in conjunction with all ENABLING Project Partners involved in WP2. It is intended to be a “Living Document” that can be updated during the life of the ENABLING Project as new technologies and additional information on biomass resources become available.
For the duration of the project we collect useful information about technologies, innovation and processes. We share it with you to help improve and expand your practices

The Enabling Coaching Activities, available through an online simple questionnaire provided via the website, will support biomass producers or the BBP industry for the uptake of emerging best practices and help the applicants figure out more details about the bio-economy and its component. The applicant can ask about biomass, bio-based products, innovation & technologies, scientific papers, EU and national laws, and much more.
In ENABLING we collect best BBP (Bio based Products and Processes) practices, from inside and outside Europe, that are wholly or partly transferable to other regions, or serve as an inspiration for partners in the value chain. An interactive web based tool will provide easy to find information on the best practices identified.

ENABLING is the initiative of 16 partners in 13 EU and associated (IL, NO) countries. The main goal is to support the spreading of best practices and innovation in the provision (production, pre-processing) of biomass for the BBI (Bio-Based Industry).
In particular, ENABLING aims at creating appropriate conditions for the development of efficient biomass to BBPs (Bio-Based Products and Processes) value chains.
The consortium’s vision is that Europe bears a huge potential for optimising the supply of biomass into innovative bio-based processes and products.
Upscaling biomass production and pre-processing, and combining streams towards the BBPs with those of more traditional bioenergy chains would enhance at least three interlinked types of impact. a) biomass production gains scale to meet higher demand in both sectors (bioenergy and the BBI); b) the reinforcement of biomass supply for the BBI benefits smaller BBI players, helping them diversify and consolidate biomass input sources; c) reinforcing the biomass and BBPs linkages may contribute to job-creation, due to the increased need for specialised workers.
To realise such potential, ENABLING also anticipates its longer term exploitation pathways. In the intention of the consortium, the project should aggregate and engage partners for the establishment of a permanent innovation brokerage platform, likely to become in the future, one of the main marketplaces and innovation transfer accelerators at European level.
In this sense, the project organises its work around two building blocks: one relates to animating the stakeholders (on the farming and BBPs sides), identifying best practices, turning them into easy to access content (in the EIP format) for their potential users and providing stakeholders with coaching and guidance on innovation. The other one looks at future developments, with the consolidation, in a self-sustainable way, of the innovation brokerage platforms after the end of the EU funded initiative.
