Cogeneration of Heat and Power (CHP), using biofuels, is a challenging subject combining the benefits of the conventional and alternative technologies with very high overall efficiency. Several actions have been taken to promote the widespread development of CHP in Europe and worldwide. The EU and the member states have funded several RTD projects in order to imply, develop and promote CHP technologies. The use of biomass as a fuel is attractive, due to the environmental benefits and to the barriers that are evoked.The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare current CHP biomass fired technologies, in order to conclude to a clear state-of –the-art of the current technological status. The study focuses on the European status and on the benefits of biomass used as a fuel. A detailed analysis was conducted providing technical economic and environmental data and trends. Through specific indicators, key issues in the implementation of biomass CHP in Europe were compared, aiming to facilitate the goal of 26 Mtoe biomass CHP installations to be reached by 2010.
