We estimate the potential biomass demand from the existing power plants, and we match our estimates …This paper analyses the potential of biomass-based electricity in the EU-27 countries, and interactions with climate … with the potential biomass supply in Europe. Furthermore, we compute the CO2 abatement associated with the co …

The UK has legally binding renewable energy and greenhouse gas targets. Energy from biomass is anticipated to make … major contributions to these. However there are concerns about the availability and sustainability of biomass for the … bioenergy sector. A Biomass Resource Model has been developed that reflects the key biomass supply-chain dynamics and …

current US NG reserves to about 60 years. Beyond this period, compressed methane derived from biomass can replace CNG, and … utilize the would-be developed CNG infrastructure. The LDV biomass requirement depends on the biomass to methane carbon … conversion and battery storage capacity of CNG PHEVs. Converting biomass to methane using solar heat/H2 leads to ~65% lower LDV …

utilizing renewable energy sources. The availability of various biomass resources has made it an appealing source of renewable … energy. Given the variability of supply and sources of biomass, supply chains play an important role in the efficient … provisioning of biomass resources for energy production. This paper provides a comprehensive review and classification of the …

The results showed that the largest GHG mitigation potential can be found at … energy; (ii) furthering the use of decentralized renewable energy options; (iii) commercializing biomass energy via biomass …

Sector Model, our paper aims to assess the impacts of three policy options to stimulate fuelwood consumption: a consumer … subsidy, a producer subsidy and a fixed-demand contract policy. We explored their impacts in terms of five groups of criteria … balance; (4) budgetary costs; and (5) variations in agent surpluses. We show that no policy option is more desirable than …
