Biomass energy has great potential to achieve carbon peak and carbon neutrality in China

Three steps are proposed for the high quality and low carbon development of coal power: further eliminate the backward production capacity of coal power; Upgrading of non-state-of-the-art units themselves that still need to remain in service; The development and utilization of biomass coupled cogeneration and CCUS technology for large and efficient coal power units. Among them, the first is the upgrading of in-service units to further reduce coal consumption and carbon dioxide emission; The second is to make the coal-power biomass coupled mixed combustion power generation play a role of connecting the past and the next, and further reduce its carbon emissions on the basis of the innovation and transformation of coal-power itself into a high-efficiency and low-coal consumption flexible unit. This would create a window of time for the adoption of technologies such as CCUS to eventually achieve zero carbon emissions from coal power. The key to promoting the development of coal and biomass coupled mixed combustion power generation in China is to "improve the green low-carbon policy and market system", "formulate and implement the corresponding support and incentive biomass mixed combustion policy" and "establish and develop the supply and demand market system of biomass fuel to achieve the double cycle of domestic and international biomass pellet fuel markets".
