Study Report on Novel Bioenergy Crop Potential in the ECOWAS Region
The project "Regional potential assessment of novel bio energy crops in fifteen ECOWAS countries" was started by the different project partners (ECREEE, UNIDO, IIBN and QUINVITA) based on the need to make an overall assessment of a series of novel potential bio energy crops which can or could be grown and processed in the future in the 15 ECOWAS countries. This project fits in a broader strategic analysis of alternative energy needs and production, the key mandate of the main funding partner in the project, ECREEE.
