Abstract The future provision of heat from biomass is strongly influenced by Germany’s climate policy goals, such as the target of an 80 - 95 % reduction in GHG emissions by 2050. But how might the differences in how these goals are emphasised shape the bioenergy and heating sector? The aim of this paper is to analyse long-term model results, with a special focus on their possible influence on the bioenergy sector.
The findings show that a 95 % cut in GHG emissions in Germany would lead to a system that is almost completely based on renewables with a significant proportion of fluctuating energies. In this case, the role of bioenergy will shift away from being efficient base-load generation, towards being an effective “stabiliser” of the energy system. The study shows comparative results of scenario parameters and analyses the consequences for bioenergy in the heating sector. It concludes with the need for research and for policy adjustment.
