Biomass Power Generation Market by Feedstock (Solid Biofuel, Liquid Biofuel, and Biogas), By Technology (Gasification, Anaerobic Digestion, and Combustion), By End-User (Household, Industrial Sector, Government Sector, Others) - Global Industry Share, Growth, Competitive Analysis and Forecast Period 2021-2027
The global biomass power generation market is expected to grow at a CAGR of around 8.5% during the forecast period (2021-2027). Biomass refers to biodegradable organic materials which are non-fossilized and originate from biological sources resulting from animals, plants, and micro-organisms. Biomass contains wastes, residues, and by-products from woods, agriculture industries as well as biodegradable organic fractions of municipal & industrial wastes. Biomass is used as a source of energy input for electricity generation, provision of heat, and as a fuel in the transportation sector.
Biomass power generation distinct from the other alternative sources and can also provide baseload power which is likely to foster additional growth in the biomass power generation market. It is the clean sources of renewable energy that form an important part of the solution to economic, environmental, climate, and security challenges stood by the effective utilization of fossil fuels. Biomass used for power generation with a low-carbon and sustainable alternative to fossil fuels, allows the local communities to use domestic biomass resources. The utilization of biomass resources for power and energy generation forms a significant part of the strategic advantages of various government institutions. These initiatives aim to re-organize the national energy economies and augment the share of renewable energy in the whole power generation mix.
