Fortunately, there are solutions out there – they are called biosolutions.   Biosolutions use nature’s own toolbox by utilising processes like fermentation and using tools such as bacteria and enzymes. They are simply put, the combination of biology and technology to create a climate solution.   The potential of biosolutions is vast. According to Copenhagen Economics, existing biosolutions could reduce CO₂ emissions by 4,300 million tonnes by 2030 – the equivalent of eight percent of today’s global emissions.   With rising demand for sustainable alternatives, the global biosolutions market is projected to grow from EUR 240 billion today to EUR 640 billion by 2030. This growth promises not only climate benefits but also the creation of high-skilled jobs and a strengthened position in the fast-growing green economy.   The term ‘biosolutions’ originated in Denmark just a few years ago, as part of an effort to define and unite a new sector and ecosystem. Rooted in Denmark’s strong legacy in biotechnology and HealthTech, the sector builds on advanced technologies such as fermentation and biorefining – both fundamental to biosolutions – which are already deeply embedded in the Danish industrial landscape. This integration enables continuous innovation, production, and industry growth.   The Danish biosolutions sector is supported by a range of organisations working to create optimal conditions for innovation and commercialisation. This involves creating an ecosystem consisting of universities, authorities, industry associations and business support organisations.   To guide readers into the era of biosolutions, State of Green are publishing a new publication: Biosolutions – Creating climate impact with nature’s own toolbox. The publication offers an introduction to biosolutions and showcases Denmark’s innovative biosolution cluster, featuring 16 cases spanning colours, construction and cosmetology.
