“…B. Cavicchi, J. Bryden and M. Vittuari look at the experience of using biomass in Norway (Cavicchi et al, 2014). In Sweden the issue is investigated by C. Waldenström, R. Ferguson, C. Sundberg et al (Waldenström et al, 2016). In the UK we can find a similar research in the works of P. Sinclair, B. Cohen, Y. Hansen et al (Sinclair et al, 2015).…”

“…The reasons for such differentiation may be broadly understood as natural conditions and economic profitability [25][26][27]. Despite these differences, the very fact of the growing role of renewable energy is beyond doubt, for example, in the context of the development of rural areas, the development of the local energy value chain [28][29][30][31][32], as well as mitigating climate change and greater care for the environment [33]. Recent studies also highlight the important role of RES in the context of COVID-19 impacts [34].…”

The article presents an analysis of geographical-settlement and legal-planning conditions for the development of Poland’s distributed generation. The choice of this country is important and interesting due to the highly dispersed settlement, which may be a factor stimulating the development of this type of energy systems. For this reason, the analysis can be a model for other countries and regions, indicating ways to analyze and evaluate settlement and planning conditions for the development of renewable and distributed energy. At the same time, Poland is struggling with a severe crisis of spatial planning. By analysing these opportunities and threats, empirical analyses try to indicate regularities in this respect in Poland’s regions in a detailed approach to communes and detailed legal and planning conditions. The conclusions emphasise the usefulness of distributed generation development for peripheral and sparsely populated areas of Europe and other parts of the world and appropriate directions of changes in spatial development law.

“…Currently, agricultural residues are also used for bioenergy generation, as well as biofuel production. The bioenergy production from agricultural biomass is estimated at 6 to 8 TWh by 2020, comprising about 1% of total energy supply (Waldenström et al 2016). The potential for agricultural residues in the bioenergy system is due to the versatility of bioenergy, compared to other renewable sources.…”

“…There are several studies on Swedish bioenergy production focused on raw materials including energy crops (Nordborg et al 2018a, b), agricultural residues (Waldenström et al 2016;Bentsen et al 2018), forest biomass (Bryngemark 2019), stump harvesting (Persson and Egnell 2018), and marine biomass (Hackl et al 2018;Wollak et al 2018). Some studies have addressed certain developments in the bioenergy sectors concerning district heating (Amiri and Weinberger 2018;Sernhed et al 2018;Brinkley 2018), biofuels for transport (Ouraich et al 2018;Mutter 2019), energy policies (Börjesson et al 2015;Hansen and Berlina 2018), and climate impacts of bioenergy production and consumption (Ortiz et al 2016;Hammar et al 2019;Schmidt et al 2019).…”

In the continual desire to reduce the environmental footprints of human activities, research efforts to provide cleaner energy is increasingly becoming vital. The effect of climate change on present and future existence, sustainable processes, and utilizations of renewable resources have been active topics within international discourse. In order to reduce the greenhouse gases emissions from traditional materials and processes, there has been a shift to more environmental friendly alternatives. The conversion of biomass to bioenergy, including biofuels has been considered to contribute to the future of climate change mitigation, although there are concerns about carbon balance from forest utilization. Bioenergy accounts for more than one-third of all energy used in Sweden and biomass has provided about 60% of the fuel for district heating. Apart from heat and electricity supply, the transport sector, with about 30% of global energy use, has a significant role in a sustainable bioenergy system. This review presents the state of the art in the Swedish bioenergy sector based on literature and Swedish Energy Agency’s current statistics. The review also discusses the overall bioenergy production and utilization in different sectors in Sweden. The current potential, challenges, and environmental considerations of bioenergy production are also discussed.
