Blue-Green Bio Lab

Blue-Green Bio Lab

“Blue-Green Bio Lab” is a small project of Interreg Baltic Sea Region. The main objective is to create a toolkit to help the municipalities develop bioindustrial symbioses. The symbioses to be created have a dual role – to create additional business opportunities in the region and to contribute to environmental and climate policy objectives. The toolkit will thus include descriptions of biomass types, suggestions for local discussions and opportunities for building symbiosis.

LIAE is the only academic partner of the project. The tasks of LIAE include preparing descriptions of the types of biomass from terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems that can be used in the project partner regions to create bioindustrial symbioses. A study is planned for Zemgale Planning Region, looking at available biomass types – reeds and grasses.
