Formerly called
European Biomass Association (AEBIOM)

Bioenergy Europe (formerly known as AEBIOM) is a European trade association open to national biomass associations and bioenergy companies active in Europe. It was founded in 1990 under the leadership of French senator Michel Souplet with the aim to promote energy generation from biomass in all its forms: biopower, bioheat, or biofuels for transport.

Bioenergy Europe is the umbrella organisation of the European Pellet Council (EPC),[1] and the International Biomass Torrefaction Council (IBTC).[2]

Bioenergy Europe owns two international certifications for wood fuels. ENplus, certifying wood pellets quality[3] and GoodChips, aiming at guaranteeing wood chips and hog fuel quality.[4]
