Biomass Electricity Market Definition

The biomass electricity market consists of sales of biomass power by entities (organizations, sole traders and partnerships) that convert biomass into electrical energy. The biomass electric power generation industry includes establishments that operate biomass electric power generation facilities which produce electricity generated from renewable organic waste that comes from plants and animals. These facilities use biomass, such as wood, waste, and alcohol fuels to produce electrical energy. In biomass power plants, wood waste or other is processed to make electricity, or to provide heat to industries and homes. The electrical energy generated is then supplied to electric power transmission systems, which are used to move large quantities of power from generating facilities to substations, and to distribution systems, which are used for short distances to transport electricity to customers locally. Biomass refers to a wide range of materials, including agricultural byproducts such as corn husks, wood chips, lumber and timber yard wastes, construction and demolition debris, and treated sewage sludge. There are a number of industries that produce biomass waste such as municipalities, colleges and universities, water treatment facilities, hotels, resorts and sports stadiums, hospitals, food processing facilities, wood primary or secondary product manufacturers and correctional facilities.
