Passionate about developing viable solutions in the fields of renewable energies and circular economy.

My organisation

BEST - Bioenergy and Sustainable Technologies GmbH is a K1 Competence Centre in the Austrian COMET programme and closes the gap between academic research and industrial technology development by undertaking industry-driven applied research and development in the fields of bioenergy, the sustainable bio-based economy, and future-proof energy systems. BEST is working on the scientific and technological basis for processes which use biomass, residues and waste to produce heat, electricity, gaseous and liquid energy carriers, and basic materials for the chemical industry. The company also carries out research on the joint use of bioenergy and other renewable energy supply technologies as a means of providing efficient, sustainable and economic solutions for the energy system of the future.
