Conclusion• Cellulosic Ethanol is no longer a far-away dream, it's <strong>here</strong>, ready forcommercializ<strong>at</strong>ion• New sustainable technologies are rarely competitive with <strong>the</strong> lesssustainable technologies <strong>the</strong>y replace, ex windpower, biopower• Deployment of cellulosic ethanol requires long-term incentives• The bio-based economy provides an enormous potential for Europe tocre<strong>at</strong>e development, jobs, growth and competitiveness• With appropri<strong>at</strong>e policies and R&D programmes <strong>the</strong> EU can reap <strong>the</strong> fullbenefits of <strong>the</strong> bio-based economyMIPER@dongenergy.dkwww.dongenergy.comwww.inbicon.comThank You
