Abstract
Biomass is plant matter and animal waste that can be harvested to create bioenergy in the form of electricity, heat, steam and fuels. Biomass has great potential to contribute considerably more to the renewable energy sector. It has potential to generate power to the extent of more than 50% of the country’s requirements. These sources are pollution free and hence clean energy apart from being unlimited /inexhaustible. Biomass can be converted to other usable forms of energy like methane gas or transportation fuels like ethanol and Biodiesel.
