| Description | Organic Waste to Resources Research and Pilot Project Report. Biomass energy, or bioenergy, is not a new source of energy. Organic matter, like wood, has been burned to generate heat ever since humans learned how to make fire. Today, new technologies allow us to harness the energy in animal and plant biomass to generate electricity and fuel vehicles. When the biomass resources, such as wood, are grown and harvested sustainably, the energy derived from them is considered renewable. Typically biomass energy production is divided into the categories of biopower (for electricity generation) and biofuels (for petroleum substitutes). |
