  BIOMASS IN BRIEF...  

Biomass has some clear advantages over other fuel types. Here we’ve outlined a few of them

  • Renewable Energy: Renewable energy sources, like wood and plant life, can be replenished after use, potentially outlasting traditional fossil fuels. However, unlike solar or hydropower, continual replenishment through practices like re-planting is necessary to mitigate issues like deforestation.

  • Carbon Neutrality: Biomass fuel, integral to the carbon cycle, releases only absorbed carbon into the atmosphere, promoting carbon neutrality. As plants are replenished, they reabsorb carbon, maintaining balance.

  • Conservation of Fossil Fuels: Increased use of biomass energy reduces dependence on fossil fuels, addressing climate change and environmental concerns. Biomass materials' abundance surpasses fossil fuels, offering a more sustainable fuel source and allowing non-renewable resources to be allocated elsewhere.

  • Accessibility: Biomass fuels, widely available globally, mitigate issues of fuel scarcity associated with fossil fuels. However, responsible management is vital to sustain this availability within the planet's natural lifecycle.

  • Domestic Production: Biomass fuel empowers individuals to produce energy independently, reducing reliance on large corporations. Domestic utilization, like wood burning for heating, offers cost savings and environmental benefits, fostering greater energy independence.
