RISE Piteå Advisory Bord Meeting sepember 2025Irina Iakovleva

Bio4Energy Advisory Board Meeting in Piteå

20 October, 2025/in News/by Irina Iakovleva

On 8–9 September, Bio4Energy’s Advisory Board gathered at the RISE facilities in Piteå for two days of exchange, reflection, and inspiration, this year with a focus on pyrolysis and gasification.

Following the traditional lunch-to-lunch format, the meeting opened with a series of presentations from participants, who shared recent progress and results from their respective fields of research and development.

In the afternoon, attention turned to practice. Linda Sandström and Fredrik Weiland from RISE gave presentations introducing the work at the facilities and then guided participants through the pilot units. The visit offered a close look at how biomass conversion technologies are developed and tested, and at the practical challenges of scaling them up for industrial use.

The first day ended on a warm note with dinner at Stadshotellet, where conversations continued in a relaxed setting. The following morning featured additional presentations and visits, including insights from Fredrik Granberg on RISE’s ongoing research.

Bio4Energy extends its warm thanks to the RISE Piteå team for hosting the meeting and for their generous support throughout the visit. As the meeting concluded, participants left Piteå with new insights and reflections to bring into future discussions.
