Abstract
Una de las reticencias sociales más extendidas acerca del uso de combustibles de biomasa son las
emisiones que producen. En el caso de la biomasa forestal, el recuento y la gestión del carbono absorbido, los
posibles daños a la biodiversidad y a la calidad de los aprovechamientos forestales, y el posible aumento de emisiones
son puntos conflictivos para el sector ambientalista. Por el contrario, el sector técnico apuesta por una gestión forestal
sostenible, mediante el uso de técnicas avanzadas que permitan conocer cómo funcionan los mecanismos de los
bosques como sumideros de carbono.
Los riesgos ambientales del uso energético de los biocombustibles pueden ser revertidos mediante el empleo de
parámetros técnicos. La normativa europea establece criterios de sostenibilidad para la biomasa con destino
energético, pero no fija parámetros acerca de la sostenibilidad del resto de fuentes renovables.
Este trabajo se basa en la necesaria imbricación entre la técnica normativa consagrada el programa europeo “Legislar
mejor para obtener mejores resultados - Un programa de la UE”1 y la ciencia, por una mayor sostenibilidad del uso de
fuentes de energía renovables.
One of the most widespread social reservations about the use of biomass fuels is the emissions they produce. In the case of forest biomass, the counting and management of the absorbed carbon, the potential harm to biodiversity and the quality of forest harvesting, and the probable rise in emissions are points of conflict for the environmental sector. On the other hand, the technical sector is committed to sustainable forest management, through the use of advanced techniques that allow us to understand how the mechanisms of forests work as carbon sinks. The environmental risks of the energy use of biofuels can be reversed through the use of technical parameters. European regulations establish sustainability criteria for biomass for energy purposes, but do not set parameters for the sustainability of other renewable sources. This work is based on the necessary imbrication between the regulatory technique enshrined in the European programme "Better Regulation for better results - An EU agenda" and science, for greater sustainability in the use of renewable energy sources.
