Biomass is renewable organic material that comes from plants and animals. Biomass contains stored chemical energy from the sun that is produced by plants through photosynthesis. The use of biomass energy has the potential to greatly reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Burning biomass releases about the same amount of carbon dioxide as burning fossil fuels.
1. Renewable Biomass energy is a renewable form of energy. As we use biomass materials, the supply of organic matter is diminishing. However, biomass can be regenerated quickly. The fact that the biomass supply can be regenerated within a human lifetime is what makes biomass renewable.
2.Waste reduction One reason why biomass is so widely available is because the planet produces a lot of waste. Much of the waste we make is biodegradable, like food and plant waste. Instead of letting it become garbage, we could instead turn it into electricity! Biomass energy takes waste that would otherwise sit in a landfill and makes it useful. This reduces the amount of waste that goes into landfills, which is better for the environment. Plus, with less waste, we would need fewer and smaller landfills. This opens up more land that can be used by communities.
3. Abundant One of the biggest pros of biomass energy is that biomass is abundant. There is a growing amount of organic material being produced every day; you can find biomass nearly everywhere on the planet. This means that biomass won’t have the issue of limited availability, like fossil fuels do. However, biomass does need to be responsibly managed in order to keep its abundant supply well-stocked. If we overuse the biomass that is available, we could run into availability issues while we wait to replenish the supply.
