Biomass To Energy — Current Report
| August 27, 2010 | Posted by Craig Shields under Biomass |
I just got a call from a gentleman from Montgomery Street Research who asked a very good question: Is there a single, current document that lays out the state of the art in biomass-to-energy? There are so many wrinkles to this, but principally, I suppose, these two:
* Dozens of different technologies – any one of which could be appropriate to a certain kind of site and feedstock.
* Different levels of commercial viability depending (obviously) on the cost of feedstock and the price of take-off — but also on government incentives that would tend to make a project this more attractive – or less so.
Occasionally I come across something that looks perfect, only to glance down and see that it’s ancient. Anything more than a year old, I would suggest, is probably out of date.
If anyone can point us in the right direction, that would be terrific.
