                            - A lack of quantification of risk has been cited as having a major negative impact on climate change related investment and on energy policy. This paper addresses this by providing probability and risk information for investors and policy makers on a set of promising BTL concepts.
The outputs of this research led to BBSRC Networks in Industrial Biotechnology and Bioenergy proof-of-concept funding on two separate occasions (“Optimizing Low Cost C1/C2 Compound Production and Fermentation from Biomass Solid Waste” 2015-16, value £47,042 and “Hemp By-Product Valorisation Using Cannabinoid Extraction Followed by Ethanol Fermentation” 2016-17, value GBP 37,148).
