In today’s op-ed on Euractiv, Bioenergy Europe’s Secretary General Jean-Marc Jossart makes the case for giving Member States and regions the flexibility to use their own renewable resources, including sustainable bioenergy.
The priority, he argues, should remain clear: phase out fossil fuels while protecting affordability, energy security and public trust. Find out more in the article, and share it today.
