7 Development of Worldwide Energy Consumption MBDOE ( Million Barrels / Day of Oil Equivalent Required Investment in Energy $20.2 Trillion (in $ 2005) Years 25 Years Energy consumption will approx. increase by 50% between 2005 and 2030 In 25 years, renewable energy will be equivalent to the amount of energy from fossil fuels today Source: Shell

8 Escape the Oil Trap Biomass is the only carbon containing renewable resource Ø Biomass used for chemical production prior to energy generation Syngas and Methanol are the key to synthetic products Ø Broad and flexible product range for energy and chemistry Adoption of proven technologies and existing infrastructure Structural redirection in agriculture and forestry ØNew income source and employment for agriculture 8 Quelle: FZK

26 Economics Cost of BTL Plants a wide spread * Sources: EIA Energy Outlook 2006 * ECN Report No

27 Summery The Development of Routes to Chemicals based on Biomass is the Winning Option in Future Biomass can cover 30%+ of the primary energy demand, but should primarily be used as Carbon Source Biomass is the Key Alternative for Oil and Gas Chemicals based on Biomass Need : - Basic research - Regional Demonstration - Industry Building embedded in Long Term Programs >10 years - Sustainable Support by Legislation 27
