Renewable biomass energy is a heavily criticised field of renewable energy generation. Deforestation to make wood pellets and converting arable land into a biomass resource raises concerns about the process’ long-term feasibility. However, sourcing biomass from annuals or fast-to-grow-plant. provides a different carbon profile for the prospective field of energy generation.
Advantage of Biomass is a clean, renewable energy source. Its initial energy comes from the sun, and plants or algae biomass can regrow in a relatively short amount of time. Trees, crops, and municipal solid waste are consistently available and can be managed sustainably another advantage is if crops are maintained sustainably, they can help offset carbon emissions by absorbing carbon dioxide. Many feedstocks can be harvested on marginal land or pasture, where they do not compete with food crops.

Example : Wood is still the largest biomass energy resource today. Other sources include food crops, grassy and woody plants, residues from agriculture or forestry, oil-rich algae, and the organic component of municipal and industrial wastes.
If it has advantage, it also has disadvantage such as high electricity and heat consumption appears as one of the arguments against biomass-fired power plants. The production process itself is time-consuming and requires the use of expensive technology and equipment, which creates significant costs and a burden on the environment.
