Biomass energy related news

Biomass is a renewable sustainable energy source re-growing over a relatively short period of time. The majority of scientists believe that a wide range of biomass resources are "beneficial" because their use will clearly reduce overall carbon emissions and provide other benefits.

Biomass is any biological material that can be used as fuel. Biomass fuel is burned or converted in systems that produce heat, electricity, or both heat and power. Woodchips, wood pellets, and other low-grade wood wastes are the major type of biomass fuel. Other common biomass fuel sources are agricultural crop residues and farm animal wastes.
