This paper aims at outline a framework for the analysis methods that can be used in planning processes. The topic of the work is the evaluation of methodological approaches for the characterization and quantification of sustainable bioenergy. First of all, the agroenergy planning regulations present at the national level, were described. Then, some environmental and socio-economic modelisation techniques for agro-forestry biomass evaluation were examined. Further future potential improvement and additional lines of research were finally reported, in order to encourage the use of modeling tools as Decision Support Systems.

Keywords: Agroenergy planning; Modelling; Agro-forestry biomass; Complex systems; Multicriteria evaluation; Spatial analysis.
