This report is part of the Global Bioenergy Partnership (GBEP)’s ongoing efforts to monitor the status of bioenergy development in member countries and create a basis for future discussion of sustainability criteria and possible guidelines for sustainable bioenergy development. It was requested by the GBEP Steering Committee and provides an overview of current bioenergy policies, strategies and legislation in G8 +5 Countries which represents a basis for recommendations on the future programme of work of GBEP in order to promote sustainable development of bioenergy. The GBEP report finds that bioenergy is already available and can provide immediate solutions and further technological advances in a relatively short time.
