This event was a joint open workshop between two complementary projects – AMBITION and Bio4Fuels. The workshop provided an opportunity to exchange views, learn from each other and promote alignment in pursuit of high quality output from both projects.
Topics included future ambitions for liquid transport fuels, hydrogen as part of the future transport energy system, gasification beyond the state of the art and new approaches to process design.
