Enhancing the Transition Capability of Danish Biomass Technology By Applying a Futures Study Backcasting Methodology on the Biogas Sector.

Abstract

This paper discusses how the Danish biogas sector can achieve the political goals set outby the Danish government, in order to turn around the currently weak implementation ofthe technology. Biogas technology provides many environmental and energy relatedbenefits, but the transition capability of the technology has so far not been supported by astable policy pushing the sector in the right direction. The paper argues that a moreholistic and consistent support for the biogas sector must be developed, enhancing itsindependence from shifting Danish policy regimes. This could be achieved by applying abackcasting methodology in combination with future research activities which areidentified by means of energy chain analysis. The paper stresses that future Danish biogasresearch should be applied all along the sector’s energy chain, and not just in parts of it,looking at enhancement of the transition capability within ‘Resources’,‘Technology/Conversion’ and ‘Distribution/End-use’. The future research activities,proposed in this paper are interconnected and thought backwards with the goal ofcreating reachable aims for achieving the political targets set forth before the year 2020and 2050.

“…Pound (2000) applied the futures analysis tools to study the future of the state's future legislature in the USA. Lybaek et al (2013) used it to study on how the Danish biogas sector can achieve the political goals set out by the Danish government, in order to turn around the currently weak implementation of the technology in such sector. Finally, Ithnin et al (2018) had led a group of researchers to study the desired possible scenarios in its educational structure in different Malaysian higher institutions.…”

“…Increasing collective action could also be a solution to environmental problems. Lybaek, Christensen and Kjaer (2013) refers to the development of new biogas corporate with the participation of farmers and other stakeholders could reduce the difficulties and accelerate the development of biogas.…”
