Annex 3. Survey of bioeconomy business entities

Survey objective – to provide with a business environment assessment, business development

forecast, to identify business needs and patterns of efficient cooperation with science and governmen-

tal institutions in bioeconomy, to indentify bioeconomy areas for Lithuanian business cooperation

with Norwegian businesss and to analyze bioeconomy business attitude on a role of a national bioeco-

nomy strategy.

Survey was conducted on April 17 – June 12 in 2017. There were 112 responses from over

the 600 business entities included into survey. The questionnaire was disdtributed electronically after

the confirmation by phone call that the subject agreed to take part in the survey. Ten questionnaires

were filled inadequately and rejected. Thus assessment is based on 102 responses from the infor-

mants. The sample size meets the requirement of 90% confidence level (with p < α = 0.1), having in

mind that there is aroung 177 thousand organizations in agriculture or other bioeconomy activities in

Lithuania (Annex 1 table 5 based on 2013 data). The structure of the surveyed business enterprises

and entities according the bioeconomy activity, annual turnover and emploee number is presented in

Survey questionnaire for bioeconomy business entities

Aleksandras Stulginskis University is working on „Lithuanian Bioeconomy Development Feasibility Study“ based on the contract

(No. 8-49, 2017-03-24) with the Ministry of Economy. Accoridng the technical description of the contract, the survey of the business

entities is required. The survey will help to assess possible impact of factors from external environment on bioeconomy business, its

development tendencies, the needs and patterns of business effective cooperation with science and governmental institutions in bioeco-

nomy activities, the area and potential of bilateral Lithuanian-Norwegiant business cooperation, the need for National bioeconomy

strategy in Lithuania.

In order to cope with an increasing global population, rapid depletion of many resources, increasing environmental pressures and

climate change, Europe needs to radically change its approach to production, consumption, processing, storage, recycling and disposal

of biological resources. The Europe 2020 Strategy calls for a bioeconomy as a key element for smart and green growth in Europe1.

According to the European Commission Communication „Innovating for Sustainable Growth: A Bioeconomy for Europe“ (2012) the

bioeconomy encompasses the production of renewable biological resources and the conversion of these resources and waste streams

into value added products, such as food, feed, bio-based products and bioenergy. The bioeconomy includes the sectors of agriculture,

forestry, fisheries, food and pulp and paper production, as well as parts of chemical, biotechnological and energy industries.

We kindly ask Your association to take part in the survey and express Your opinion on the questions of the questionnaire. Please, send filled questionnaire via e-mail [email protected] until the 18th of may in 2017.

We inform You, only aggregated data will be used in the study. Individual enterprise data will not be publicized.

We are very thankful for Your participation in the survey.

Survey of scientific institutions having scientific researches in bioeconomy or biotechnology

Aleksandras Stulginskis University is working on „Lithuanian Bioeconomy Development Feasibility Study“ based on the contract

(No. 8-49, 2017-03-24) with the Ministry of Economy. Accoridng the technical description of the contract, the survey of the science

institutions is required. The survey will help to assess the needs and patterns of science institutions effective cooperation with business

and governmental institutions in bioeconomy activities.

In order to cope with an increasing global population, rapid depletion of many resources, increasing environmental pressures and

climate change, Europe needs to radically change its approach to production, consumption, processing, storage, recycling and disposal

of biological resources. The Europe 2020 Strategy calls for a bioeconomy as a key element for smart and green growth in Europe4.

According to the European Commission Communication „Innovating for Sustainable Growth: A Bioeconomy for Europe“ (2012) the

bioeconomy encompasses the production of renewable biological resources and the conversion of these resources and waste streams

into value added products, such as food, feed, bio-based products and bioenergy. The bioeconomy includes the sectors of agriculture,

forestry, fisheries, food and pulp and paper production, as well as parts of chemical, biotechnological and energy industries.

We kindly ask Your science institution to take part in the survey and express Your opinion on the questions of the questionnaire, which can be found at http://www.manoapklausa.lt/apklausa/915204603/1/ (Password: Bioekonomika). Also questionnaire can be filled in

downloaded template (MsWord) and sent via e-mail [email protected] until the 18th of may in 2017.

We inform You, only aggregated data will be used in the study. Individual science institution data will not be publicized.

establish legal preconditions for the management of forests of all ownership forms in accordance with the uniform principles of sustainable and balanced forestry, ensuring rational use of forest resources and providing the country with the grea-test social and economic benefits in order to supply raw materials to the country's industry, ensuring conservation of biodiversity, increasing forest productivity, landscape stability and the quality of the environment, the ability to carry out eco-logical, economic and social functions without harm to other ecosystems now and

in the future.

3. National Progress Strategy “Lithua-nia’s Progress Strategy Lithuania 2030” approved by Resolution No XI-2015 of the Seimas of the Repub-

lic of Lithuania of 15 May 2012

This strategic document outlines the country's development direction - increasing incentives for businesses to invest in green technologies, goods and services; the deployment of innovative, resource-efficient and environmental and climate-re-duction technologies and products in the industrial, energy and transport sectors;

ensuring ecosystem stability and safeguarding biodiversity through the sustainable development of forestry and sustainable agriculture and fisheries.

4. Resolution of the Seimas of the Re-public of Lithuania “On the Approval of the National Strategy for Climate

Change Management Policy” No XI-2375 of 6 November 2012, Vilnius

One of the goals set out in the strategy is to increase the forestness by reaping unused and less suitable land for agriculture, implementing a sustainable forestry policy, expanding the scope of harvesting forest fuels for biofuel production. The

program provides annual harvesting increase of logging waste for biofuel pro-duction up to 7 times - from 70 thousand. m3 up to 500 thous. m3. It is planned to launch four European projects that will encourage the introduction of smart grids and ensure the production of sustainable biofuels. The Smart Cities Program will be launched, which will identify the leading cities according to the priorities.

By 2020 share of transport sector RES in total final energy consumption should reach 10%. The strategy poses the challenge of increasing the share of biofuels in

a mixture with fossil fuels by 20%. It is foreseen to use alternative fuels (biofuels, biogas, electricity, hydrogen, etc.), to establish a sustainability system for biofuels and bioliquids, mixing biofuels in fuels made from mineral fuels, to promote the production of biofuels for sustainable production 2nd and 3rd generation and / use.

5. Resolution of the Seimas of the Re-

public of Lithuania “On the Approval of the Lithuanian Innovation Devel-opment Programme 2014-2020” No. 1281 of 18 December 2013, Vilnius

public of Lithuania “On the Approval of the Programme on the Implemen-tation of the Priority Areas of Re-search and Experimental (Socio-cul-tural) Development and Innovation (Smart Specialization)” No 411 of 30 April 2014, Vilnius

Long-term factors and trends related to health care will affect the social and eco-

nomic development of Lithuania. Increasing costs of healthcare and medicine pur-chase, increasing life expectancy, and therefore health technologies and biotech-nology will become a priority. The lack of resources will act as a catalyst for the breakthrough of science-based radical technological innovations, including bio-technology. The document promotes R&D&I activities leading to a sustainable food chain, the sustainable use of biological resources in the agricultural and food sector, the production of safe and high-quality food, the efficient development and use of food raw materials. Among the priority directions of R&D is the production

of energy and fuel from biomass or waste, waste treatment, storage and disposal.

Program. Promoting R&D and innovation development, one of the foreseen prio-rity directions of action is the implementation of joint research programs in Bio-

medicine and Biotechnology, Materials Science, Physical and Chemical Techno-logy, Engineering and Information Technologies, Natural Resources and Agricul-ture.

The following support measures are currently being used to increase the consump-tion of renewable energy sources: a discount on connection to a network with li-mited transmission capacity, priority for renewable energy sources, biofuel tax exemptions, feed-in tariffs, reductions for electricity and heat balancing e-

lectricity. The national objective of Lithuania is to increase the share of renewable energy in relation to total final energy consumption by 23% in 2020. One of the components of the indicator is the commitment that renewable energy used for all modes of transport would account for 10% of final energy consumption in the transport sector. It is also planned to limit greenhouse gas emissions and promote the use of biogas and other forms of energy produced from waste.

8. Resolution of the Government of the Republic of Lithuania “On the Ap-proval of the National Progress Pro-gramme 2014–2020” No 1482 of 28 November 2012, Vilnius

The document highlights the "favorable environment for economic growth" as a priority. It is necessary to reconcile the interests of the environment, economic and social development in order to ensure sustainable and negative environmental impacts. One of the objectives of the Progress Program is to promote the sustai-nable use of resources and ensure ecosystem stability. A link between infrast-ructure development and sustainable development is essential for the development of a smart economy, ensuring that economic development and modernization do

not have a negative impact on the environment and human health. It is also im-portant to ensure the good quality of natural resources and the preservation of the landscape and biodiversity. By 2020, the share of renewable resources in relation to total energy consumption, increase to 23% increase the share of biofuels to 60%, increase the share of electricity produced from renewable energy sources in comparison with total electricity consumption to 21%. It is also emphasized that biodiversity is important.

In order to build a knowledge-based economy, go along a sustainable development path, develop and develop a modern, dynamic and competitive eco-nomy of the country, much attention must be paid to the development of studies and R & D. The strategic goal of the program is to promote sustainable develop-ment of people and society, strengthening the competitiveness of the country and

creating conditions for innovation, development of studies and R & D.

10. Resolution of the Government of the Republic of Lithuania “On the Ap-proval and Implementation of the National Sustainable Development

Strategy” No 1160 of 11 September 2003, Vilnius.

The strategic document states that the following priorities of the EU Sustainable Development Strategy are important for Lithuania: reduction of human health risks, mitigation of global climate change and its consequences, protection of bio-diversity, reduction of unemployment, poverty and social exclusion.

Among the options for sustainable development identified in the document is the wider use of renewable energy resources (wind, solar, water, biomass, land sub-surface energy), the development of low-power cogeneration plants, wider use of biofuels and biofuels in energy and transport will make it possible to reduce the use of fossil fuels and the air pollution directly linked to it, will also reduce gre-enhouse gases. The further implementation of eco-innovative technologies, the application of sustainable consumption principles, environmental auditing, corpo-

rate social responsibility, and the implementation of the principles of green procu-rement will help to reduce air pollution.

The document also focuses on the preservation of landscape and biodiversity.

The short-term objectives of the strategy are as follows: to create a system of landscape and biodiversity, protection of cultural heritage, which is in line with

EU requirements, which is in line with EU requirements; to create conditions for the development of a modern municipal waste management infrastructure, a system for the management of hazardous waste and to expand the provision of public municipal waste management services, to educate the population about the waste management culture and raise the public's ecological awareness. The pur-pose of the latter is to ensure the efficient management of biodegradable waste taking into account the possibilities of joint management of production and other economic activities as well as municipal biodegradable waste. In agriculture, the

long-term challenge is to promote the development of biofuels efficiently. In order to improve the quality of the environment, it is desirable by economic means to promote the use of biofuels and to produce electricity and heat in CHP plants and to set emission standards for biofuel and equipment using biofuels.

proval of the National Forestry De-velopment Programme 2012–2020”

No 569 of 23 May 2012, Vilnius

Another goal is to ensure rational use of Lithuanian forest resources and increase the productivity of stands. This objective is being pursued because it is necessary

to increase and rational use of forest resources in order for the forest to meet the harmonious needs of the society. Areas such as promoting investment in forests and forestry, in particular innovation, and preserving and enhancing the sustaina-bility of forest ecosystems, taking into account their ecological and social role, and the impact of climate change. Finally, the aim is to harmonize the volume of forest ecological, sanitary and basic logging, and increase the use of small-scale non-liquid wood and forestry waste for biofuel production.

12. Resolution of the Government of the Republic of Lithuania “On the Ap-proval of the National Waste Man-agement Plan 2014–2020” No 519 of 13 April 2002, Vilnius

The document identifies the strategic goals and tasks for waste management up to 2020: to develop municipal waste biodegradable waste management capabilities and to ensure that municipal biodegradable waste eliminated by landfills by 2020. would not be more than 35% of year 2000 level.

The directions of the development of the waste management system and the state

tasks according to separate waste streams are as follows: to ensure that municipal waste biodegradable in the landfills is eliminated by 2020 would not be more than 35% of year 2000 level.

In order to reduce waste disposal in landfills and to prioritize priorities for waste prevention and management, it is necessary to create the necessary infrastructure for municipal waste management - from sorting waste collection facilities to me-

chanical and mechanical biological treatment of waste, separate collection of bio-degradable waste anaerobic treatment and after-sorting of remaining and non-recoverable waste to receive equipment for energy.

In order to reduce the disposal of municipal biodegradable waste in landfills, it is planned to promote the creation and development of a biodegradable waste col-lection and handling infrastructure, educate and inform the public about the im-portance of biodegradable waste sorting and management.

It is planned to improve and expand the control over the generation and manage-ment of biodegradable waste products, including catering waste and other food preparation waste, sorting systems. When developing a biodegradable waste ma-nagement system, it is planned to prepare the requirements for quality and use recommendations for compost, yeast derived from biodegradable waste.

13. Resolution of the Government of the Republic of Lithuania “On the Ap-proval of the Programme for Promot-ing Investment and Industrial Devel-opment 2014–2020” No. 986 of 17 September 2014, Vilnius

It is argued that under an annual growth of the Lithuanian economy by 3%, pol-lution can increase if additional emission reduction measures are not implemen-ted. This will require EU support to increase energy efficiency, the use of re-newable energy sources, and thus limit GHG emissions, within the limits of al-lowable pollution rates.

Much attention should be given to sustainable development, the transition to more

sustainable use of resources and measures such as eco-design or the use of the European eco-label. It should be made easier for industrial enterprises to receive adequate financing through the introduction of efficient raw materials and energy-saving, as well as waste recycling technologies.

In order to reduce the dependence on suppliers and producers of foreign raw ma-terials and related risks and to increase the competitiveness of Lithuanian industry,

it is expedient to: create the means by which many enterprises would be trained to determine the efficiency of raw materials use, compare it with the efficiency of the use of competitors' raw materials, continuously implement efficiency impro-vement measures innovation; supporting companies, especially small and me-dium-sized businesses, and advising them on how to continually improve the effi-ciency and sustainability of raw materials; to teach companies to apply the prin-ciples and methods of eco-design, resource-saving and cleaner production; pro-mote sustainable consumption and green procurement; to promote and support budget research for the efficient use of key raw materials; to encourage enterprises

to jointly implement the principles of industrial symbiosis in the region, allowing them to save on raw materials and reduce their waste.

14. Resolution of the Seimas of the Re-public of Lithuania “On the Pro-gramme of Government of the Re-

public of Lithuania” No. XIII-82 of 13 December 2016, Vilnius

The program includes the following priority measures:

to promote investment in the modern wood and biotechnology industry and biomass energy in Lithuanian, contributing to the development of the cyclical (circular) economy;

for the Direction “Health Technolo-gies and Biotechnology” of Re-search, Experimental (Socio-cul-tural) Development and Innovation (Smart Specialization)” No V-422/4-293 of 30 April 2015,Vilnius

The document says Lithuania in the short term could and should use the unique competitive advantages of the existing industry in the fields of biotechnology and biopharmaceuticals that the neighboring countries do not have, by promoting and encouraging development of this dynamic business sector. Possible collaboration and synergy between biotechnology, biopharmaceuticals and bioinformatics com-

panies is emphasized.

16. Law on Heat Sector of the Republic

of Lithuania No IX-1565 of 20 May 2003, Vilnius

State (municipalities) promotes the purchase of biofuels, renewable energy sour-

ces, incineration of waste, as well as the purchase of heat from geothermal energy into heat supply systems as a service of public interest.

The National Heat Utility Development Program provides measures and technical solutions for the development and modernization of the heat farm; an optimal mo-del for the use of energy or fuel for the production of heat or electricity, and the

need for and the potential of the installation of heat generating units in separate municipalities.

17. Resolution of the Government of the Republic of Lithuania “On the Ap-proval of the National Heat Sector

Development Programme 2015–2021” No. 284 of 18 March 2015, Vilnius

The document identifies the strategic objective of Lithuanian heat sector - to incre-ase the heat production, transmission and consumption efficiency, to replace im-ported natural gas used for heat production with sustainable local and renewable

energy resources, thus reducing heat prices.

Financial support is foreseen to develop local electricity generation.

In the National Energy Independence Strategy, energy independence is highlighted as a top priority by 2020.

The EC Communication (COM (2010) 639) "Energy 2020. A strategy for compe-titive, sustainable and secure energy“ states that EU Member States will have to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 20%, increase the share of renewable energy used by 20% and increase energy efficiency by 20%.

18. Programme for the Development of

Renewable Energy Sources in Dis-trict Heating Systems of Lithuania, June 2010, Vilnius

Rrelatively high investment is one of the major problems hindering the develop-

ment of bio-cogeneration as technology can hardly compete with fossil fuels.

As for development of biofuel cogeneration plants and municipal waste incinera-tion plants for 2020 it is planned to install another 240 MW of power plant biofuel cogeneration plants without considering municipal waste incineration plants addi-tionally to the existing 22 MW power plant biofuel cogeneration plants. The expe-diency of the development of biofuel cogeneration should be justified not only for the financial purposes of the company, but also its expediency in the context of

the social economy. The use of local biofuels for the efficient production of heat and electricity would increase the country's energy independence and help create jobs. The use of biofuels instead of fossil fuels is the most effective means of reducing CO2 emissions.

19. Law on Fisheries of the Republic of

Lithuania No VIII-1756 of 27 June 2000, Vilnius
