On Earth Day, from Bioplat we want to highlight the benefits of biomass as a renewable resource that takes advantage of everything that nature gives us. Biomass is the organic matter from agricultural, forestry, livestock, industrial and domestic activities from which bioenergy (heat, electricity and biofuels for transportation) and bioproducts (such as bioplastics, animal feed or biofabrics among many others) can be generated, but its...

The European Union had never used as much solid biomass for energy production as in 2021, when production exceeded the 100 Mtoe threshold for the first time (100.5 Mtoe, 7.5% more than in 2020), supported by a year-on-year increase in consumption of 8.1% to 104.2 Mtoe, according to preliminary data collected by a EurObserv’ER report. This trend extends to all its forms, from roundwood, pellets,...
