Biomass Power in India
As in the rest of the world, biomass is one of the prominent sources of renewable energy in India as well, for both power and heat.
While biomass is used far less frequently for power production than for heat, there are distinct trends where biomass is being increasingly used for power as well. This trend is being accelerated owing to the increasing scarcity of fossil resources such as coal and natural gas, and also owing to concerns over global warming and climate change. This section at EAI provides detailed inputs on the status and trends for biomass based power production in India.
