Abstract:
Biomass energy represents one of the oldest and most versatile renewable energy sources available to humanity. As global energy demands increase and concerns about climate change intensify, biomass has emerged as a promising alternative to fossil fuels. This paper examines the fundamental principles of biomass energy, conversion technologies, environmental impacts, economic viability, current applications, and future prospects. Through comprehensive analysis of pre-2019 literature, this study demonstrates that biomass energy can play a significant role in the global transition toward sustainable energy systems, provided that sustainability concerns related to land use, emissions, and resource management are adequately addressed.
