2. Accelerating zero and low emission technologies in hard-to-abate sectors
Biological industrial green solutions, or BioSolutions, are goods and services that leverage nature’s tools such as enzymes, microorganisms, bacteria, yeast, and fermentation to create sustainable alternatives to fossil-based products.They are used across agriculture, industry, transport & waste sectors, enabling circular bioeconomy transitions.
How this solution relates to the action agenda
Axis: Transitioning Energy, Industry, Transport
Key Objective: 2. Accelerating zero and low emission technologies in hard-to-abate sectors
Bio Solutions are enabling technologies and include alternative proteins, bio plastics, bio fuels and agricultural inputs.
They support hard-to-abate sector decarbonization, reduce land/water use vs traditional methods, create circular value chains, and reproduce biological materials.

Brazilian Pulp Mill Cuts Emissions with Biomass Modernization
A pulp mill in Brazil replaced its coal-fired boiler with a biomass system, cutting 325,000 tonnes of CO₂ emissions per year and reducing water use, waste, noise, and pollution while increasing production.
Reduce emissions in pulp & paper with biomass gasification
Suzano implemented biomass gasification in Brazil to replace fossil fuels in lime kilns, cutting CO₂ emissions by up to 97%, increasing pulp capacity by 20%, and improving energy efficiency in operations.
