The assessment of the sustainability of the cultivation of energy crops includes the input and recycling of nutrients, the application of pesticides, the water-use efficiency, the consumption of fossil fuels and the balance of soil carbon. The aim is to recycle the nutrients, which is simple in the case of anaerobic digestion by applying the digestate to the field. If crops are combusted many of the minerals can be returned via the ash. In the case of liquid biofuels, exported nutrients are lost and have to be replaced. The application of pesticides, mainly herbicides, can often be reduced in comparison to food production, but the energy yield per hectare might be reduced if the share of weeds exceeds certain thresholds. Water use efficiency,... [Pg.109]

Sustainability of energy crops is, in general, dependent on the crop species and the system boundaries considered. But the type of conversion and the use of byproducts have also considerable effect on its sustainability. Nevertheless, it can be concluded that the utilisation of energy crops considerably increase sustainability of energy provision in the EU. [Pg.110]
