Reforestation used for biomass energy is becoming a major driver to combat climate change and desertification. Brazil and US annouced a new agreement for 12 million ha
Regeneration through biomass and wildfire reduction models
Regeneration is a new word people use when moving from just “sustained models” to a positive impact in our environment.This post shows how active fire management tools used by an enhanced bioeconomy and new advanced technologies in bioenergy can pay the bill we need to preserve and increase our forest masses.
Biomass power: Feedstock cost is the key
Biomass power costs recently published by IRENA showed how critical could be to obtain reductions in feedstock costs and footprint at power station gate. We suggest ways for success.
Agave: from ‘fuel or food’ to ‘fuel and more food
Researchers confirmed potential for new plantations in drylands under constraint environmental conditions.
Improving logistics in Napiergrass during harvest operations
Napiergrass is one of highest yielding crops in tropical countries that can be used for pulp and bioenergy. A logistic system optimization is required in several environments. Its tall stalks and low leaves/stalk ratios (below 40%) allow high process efficiency for both pulp and energy uses and also a low biomass production cost.
Biomass power in Brazil grows (and it won’t stop!)
Biomass power in Brazil continues to increase and several sources report increments in biomass installed capacity from bagasse and other raw materials.
Biomass in Argentina: The giant feels greener
Biomass power station announced with PPA 120 U$D/MWh. Government explains support and next steps.
Forests, Trees and Landscapes for Food Security and Nutrition
Forests could save the planet, we all know that. But a new United Nations-backed report on the link between forests and food production and nutrition says that woodlands could be the key to ending hunger
Carbon negative in USA: bioenergy is critical new study found
Carbon negative options have been studied for years. However, today biomass plantations and biochar can easily be a part of any project aiming to mitigate climate change.
Biomass stoves reduced deforestation in Tanzania
Biomass stoves recently implemented in some districts in Tanzania, has revealed that successful use of the constructed 13,301 units can reduce firewood consumption.
