Advancing Biobased Technologies in the Bioeconomy
Thursday, 9 October, 2025
This episode looks at the concept of the bioeconomy and its potential to contribute to climate change mitigation and adaptationIt examines the progress being made in scaling up the availability and use of these technologies, highlighting both global trends and region-specific developments. Biobased technologies include processes, products and systems derived from renewable biological resources such as biomass, agricultural residues and algae that can be sustainably replenished over time. Accelerating technological innovation and policy momentum is driving growth in biomass utilization and biogenic carbon solutions, sustainable land use and advanced biobased materials. The global bioeconomy is valued at an estimated $4–5 trillion, with the potential to grow to $30 trillion by 2050, positioning it as a cornerstone of the transition to a low-carbon, climate-resilient, and sustainable future. Realizing this potential will require targeted action across technology, finance, and effective governance and policy.Join Daya Pandey, Francis X Johnson, Alex Godoy-Faundez and Debora Ley, lead authors of the 2025 Climate Technology Progress Report in a broad discussion of the bioeconomy.
