ABSTRACT
The preceding chapters have highlighted the variety of environmental, social and economic issues that help to frame our conceptualisations of bioenergy sustainability. Along the way, a range of examples have been provided showing how the development of energy crops can be guided (or misguided) through the use of public policy. This chapter seeks to systematically explore the most relevant policy options for promoting and guiding energy cropping, which are then evaluated for the two national case studies in Chapter 9.
