8th European Conference Biomass PowerON
October 7 - October 8
DETAILS
After last successful edition in Stockholm, with over 120 biomass specialists and nearly 30 excellent speakers, it is a pleasure to invite you to the 8th European Conference Biomass PowerON taking place on 7-8 October 2026. This year the event is coming back to Stockholm, Sweden.
Biomass is key to a low-carbon future, offering sustainable solutions for energy, fuels, and bio-based products while reducing reliance on fossil fuels. Negative-emission bioenergy technologies, like bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS), enhance energy system flexibility and integrate renewables.
The 8th Biomass PowerON programme explores biomass resources, sustainability, policies, and advanced conversion technologies. Key themes include biomass for heat and power, bioenergy’s role in decarbonisation, and the forest industry’s response to increasing wood biomass demand. Discussions will also focus on EU policy impacts on the bioenergy sector, spotlighting legislation’s influence on green solutions and biomass integration into a sustainable energy system.

The E.ON Högbytorp plant is a fully integrated recycling and energy recovery facility and a practical example of energy production in a circular economy. It produces 590 GWh of energy annually, enough to supply thousands of homes with electricity and district heating. Metals are recovered and hazardous substances removed, reducing landfill and supporting resource efficiency.
Site visit to the E.ON Högbytorp plant offers insight into modern energy and recycling systems. Participants will see how energy recovery and material reuse reduce environmental impact and support sustainable development.
