Description
Summary:The regenerative nature of biomass energy and its ability to minimize greenhouse gas emissions have increased its profile as a viable sustainable alternative energy source. This study examines the energy, environmental, and financial viability of biomass energy to provide a comprehensive assessment of its potential. The research takes a quantitative tack, using regression and ANOVA analysis to zero in on the most important factors influencing the growth of the biomass energy industry and its consequences for the environment and the economy. The results show that biomass energy may have a big influence, but that it also depends on a lot of other things, such the type of biomass feedstock used, the conversion technology used, and the policies. Policymakers, energy producers, and academics may all benefit from knowing which biomass sources have the most potential, which conversion technologies have the least impact, and which policy initiatives are most likely to lead to sustainable biomass energy production according to this study's findings. Future research directions in the area of biomass energy are also highlighted in the paper. These include a more in-depth consideration of the influence on the environment and the creation of more efficient and sustainable biomass conversion technology. The full potential of this renewable energy source may be realised and a more sustainable energy future achieved via prudent management of the environmental and economic consequences of biomass energy production.
