This document, titled "BBTs Assessment Tool - v1," outlines the initial version of the Bio-Based Technologies (BBTs) Assessment Tool, detailing its features and the 'Reference' Scenarios for each Represented Region (RR). It describes the tool's integration with project tasks such as the BBioNets knowledge inventory, regional dynamics studies, and workshops for identifying and validating regional needs and BBTs.

The primary objective of the tool is to prioritize the most suitable BBTs for each RR based on user-provided data, enhancing accuracy with more detailed input. The methodology section elucidates the tool's operation, interrelationships of information, and accuracy improvement. A data model created with Power Pivot is explained, showcasing its design and functionality.

The report covers various applications of the tool, results interpretation through a 2-D cost-effectiveness plot and presents 'Reference' Scenarios from each region. An annex provides guidelines for partners on using the tool to develop 'Reference' Scenarios.
