The CEM Biofuture Platform Initiative is developing activities to tackle some of the key barriers to the development of a sustainable bioeconomy.
Current activities include
Biofuture Action Plan 2025-2027
The current Biofuture Action Plan (June 2025 – May 2027), that is the result of an extensive consultation process among its members, comprises four key Actions
- Support G7/G20 and COPs on Strategies Developing Sustainable Fuels
- Advance Standards for Carbon Intensity of Sustainable Feedstocks for Fuels and Chemicals
- Promote Bio-based Chemicals and Materials
- Institutional Outreach and Cooperation
Support is currently being sought for an additional Action on Global Sustainable Biomass Supplies.
Biofuture Industry Council
The Biofuture Council serves as a vehicle for collaborating with Industry to showcase ways that bio-based Fuels, Chemicals, and Materials (FCM) can contribute to the Energy Transition and to a Net-Zero, Circular Economy.
The Council enables: joint work between Governments and Industry regarding feedstock availability and sustainability governance; convergence of sustainability governance between various governmental jurisdictions and international agencies; and rigorous approaches to carbon accounting for overcoming the policy and regulatory challenges associated with encouraging the substitution of bio-based product for their fossil equivalent.
