The Green Valleys project is a Swedish-Danish research collaboration with the aim of establishing a development platform for green biorefining. The project is funded by the EU Interreg Öresund-Kattegat-Skagerrak and Region Västra Götaland. The project partners are Agroväst, which is leading the project, Chalmers University of Technology, the Department of Natural Resources at Region Västra Götaland, SLU, Hushållningssällskapet Sjuhärad, Aarhus University and Skive Municipality.

Two demonstration plants have been built: a larger research-based plant in Denmark at Aarhus University, AU Viborg (Foulum research unit), and a smaller farm-based pilot plant in Sweden at Naturbruksskolan Sötåsen.

A 7.5 kW wood pellet press and a 4 kW hammer mill have been successfully used in the project.
