FLEXBY continues to reinforce its role within the European research and innovation landscape through new strategic partnerships with two Horizon Europe projects: BeBOP and TEAPOTS.
These collaborations represent an important step in FLEXBY’s clustering and networking strategy, fostering cross-project synergies that support sustainable fuel production, renewable energy generation, and circular resource use.
The partnership with BeBOP brings together complementary expertise in advanced thermochemical conversion and renewable methanol production. BeBOP is developing a process-intensified, digital biomass power-to-methanol system, including a TRL6 pilot plant that integrates a Solid Oxide Electrolysis Cell (SOEC) and a 3D-printed methanol reactor into an existing biomass gasification facility. With a target of achieving over 90% carbon efficiency, the project aims to deliver a scalable and cost-competitive renewable methanol pathway for Europe’s biomass-based chemical industry. Through this collaboration, FLEXBY contributes to knowledge exchange and coordinated dissemination activities that will help accelerate industrial uptake and support the decarbonisation of the chemical sector.
In parallel, FLEXBY has joined forces with TEAPOTS, a project focused on agricultural waste pyrolysis and thermocomposting for renewable energy in the agri-food sector. TEAPOTS is developing an integrated and modular solution to convert lignocellulosic and hard-to-treat agricultural residues into renewable heat, electricity, and cooling, while also producing valuable by-products such as biochar and compost. Combining advanced conversion technologies with digital optimisation tools, the project aims to strengthen local energy resilience, improve waste logistics, and promote sustainable farming practices across Europe.
Through both partnerships, FLEXBY will actively co-organise joint communication and dissemination actions, promote cross-project learning, and explore technical synergies in areas such as biomass valorisation, thermochemical processing, and sustainable fuel production. These collaborative efforts enhance the visibility and impact of all participating initiatives while contributing to Europe’s broader objectives in renewable energy, industrial decarbonisation, and circular economy development.
