Biomass is a renewable source of energy derived from organic matter, such as plants, animals, and waste. It can be used to generate electricity, heat, and transportation fuels, as well as to produce chemicals, materials, and other products. Biomass is a promising alternative to fossil fuels, as it can reduce emissions of carbon dioxide and other pollutants while providing a reliable source of energy. There are a number of different types of biomass, including wood and woody biomass, agricultural residues, animal waste, and organic municipal waste. Read on to learn more about biomass and its potential to reduce emissions and provide a sustainable source of energy.
While welcomed by several energy trade associations, Downing Street is now being called upon to urgently enable effective bioenergy carbon capture and storage. Meanwhile, critics argue policy will lead to more destruction of critical forests. Running to 204 pages, the expansive document outlines the short and mid-term future…

Researchers have investigated how the behavior of an individual wheat plant under limiting light conditions influences the performance of the whole community. They assessed morphological and biomass phenotypes of single plants grown in mixtures under sunlight and a simulated canopy shade, and the relevance of these phenotypes for the monoculture community in the field.
There has not been a successful demonstration of a renewable plus storage grid, even with generation support from fossil, nuclear, geothermal and biomass generators. Previous commentaries (here, here and here) have described a conceptual demonstration of a renewable plus storage grid without support from fossil generation, its documentation and reporting. However, this
Making 100% sustainable aviation fuel seems a long way away. Aircraft need energy-dense power, as delivered by fossil fuels, and sustainable alternatives are being developed. But a big challenge is that 10% – 25% of the fuel must be “aromatic” which neither thickens nor freezes at cold altitudes. Also, aromatics get absorbed by the plastic […]
