Power from Plants
by Walter C. Patterson, etc., Roger Booth, and Philip Elliot
Published 30 April 1994
The gasification of biomass (trees and plants) offers an important potential source of renewable energy. The global implications of this new source are potentially enormous for the energy industries, as well as for agriculture and land use. This report explains how existing technology and fuels enable biomass to generate electricity in a reliable and efficient manner. It critically analyzes the prospects for biomass development, policy strategies which must be implemented, and the long-term implications of power from plants.
