本論文は、EUの再生可能エネルギー指令（RED III）におけるバイオマスのカスケード利用原則の法的枠組みを分析する。木材のエネルギー利用増大が持続可能性の懸念を引き起こす中、RED IIIは材料利用を優先するが、解釈の余地が残る。著者らは、加盟国にはカスケード利用の完全実施義務があり、例外は厳格に限定されると主張する。
English
This paper analyzes the legal framework for the cascading use of biomass in the EU's revised Renewable Energy Directive (RED III). It argues that RED III obliges Member States to implement cascading use in law and practice, with strictly limited derogations, addressing sustainability concerns of woody biomass use.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
日本では、木質バイオマス発電の持続可能性基準が議論されており、EUのカスケード利用原則は政策設計の参考になる。ただし、日本のFIT制度とは異なる文脈であり、直接的な示唆は限定的。
In the global GX context
This paper contributes to global policy scholarship on sustainable bioenergy, offering legal interpretation of cascading use that could inform other jurisdictions' biomass policies, though it is EU-specific.
👥 読者別の含意
🔬研究者:Provides legal analysis of RED III's cascading use principle, useful for comparative policy research.
🏛政策担当者:Highlights implementation requirements and limits of derogations for biomass use, relevant for EU policymakers.
📄 Abstract（原文）
Peer-reviewed paper 8-107-26 Decarbonising heating in buildings is a key requirement for achieving the European Union’s climate targets and the objectives of the Paris Agreement. Biomass currently represents the largest renewable energy source for heating in the EU. The growing energetic use of especially woody biomass raises significant sustainability concerns. Large-scale bioenergy deployment may intensify land-use conflicts, affect biodiversity and reduce forest carbon sink capacities, thereby potentially undermining climate mitigation objectives. To address these challenges, the revised Renewable Energy Directive (RED III) introduces new rules governing the use of biomass. Central among them is the principle of cascading use of biomass, which prioritises the material use especially of wood in durable products before reuse, recycling and, ultimately, energy generation. But the directive raises several questions regarding the interpretation and implementation of this principle, particularly concerning the meaning of ‘highest economic and environmental added value’, the scope of permissible derogations, and the role of ‘national specificities’, that are yet to be answered. This paper argues that RED III contains an obligation for the Member States to ensure the cascading use of biomass both in law and in practice. It outlines the directive’s legal framework for the principle of the cascading use of biomass and offers interpretations for the meaning of important terminology. It concludes that RED III requires full implementation of the cascading use of biomass in the Member States and options for derogation from it are strictly limited.
