Bioenergy in Sweden is booming. Indeed, bioenergy accounts for 32% of final energy use, while oil provides 30%. Since the 1970s, Sweden has developed and invested in building a bioenergy industry that today is leading the world on bioenergy for heat, electricity and biofuels for transport. Originally from Australia, I have worked in Sweden and Europe for some 10 years in the field of bioenergy, focusing on governance and policy. I have been engaged in a variety of European and Swedish projects, networks and associations. I will speak about the development of the bioenergy industry in Sweden and Europe generally, and then concentrate specifically on biofuels for transport in Sweden and the commitment to break dependence on oil in the transport sector by 2030. I will present the activities of the Swedish Knowledge Centre for Renewable Transportation Fuels and the Swedish Bioenergy Association. Interestingly, a recent survey in Australia for a bioenergy communication and extension strategy highlights two key concerns of respondents: first, public awareness, acceptance and knowledge of bioenergy, and second, government coordination, legislation and leadership on bioenergy. I will speak to these two issues, and suggest practical actions to help build the bioenergy industry in Australia.
