The main goal of this network is: to provide technical and economic data and deal with the key issues in the implementation of biomass CHP in Europe.

The aim of BioCogen is to contribute to the specific goals for increased market penetration and cost reduction of bioenergy plus have wider benefits in many scientific / technological and socio - economic areas.
