Although there is great potential for development, the characteristics of "minority" are difficult to change

At present, China's biomass resources for energy utilization is about 461 million tons, and the total carbon emission reduction is about 218 million tons.

If China can use 40% of its biomass energy, it can replace 400 million tons of standard coal every year and reduce carbon dioxide emissions by more than 1 billion tons.

From the perspective of resource enrichment degree and access methods, the resource enrichment degree and fuel access methods of fossil energy such as coal, oil and natural gas are relatively simple, while biomass resources are relatively dispersed, and the collection, processing, transportation methods and channels are diversified.

At present, because China's biomass production, harvest and post-natal treatment has not formed a complete industrial chain, but has not achieved industrial scale, there are many difficulties in raw materials (such as straw) collection, storage, transportation and other aspects, and the cost is relatively high.

If China can make large-scale and mature use of biomass energy, it will not only alleviate the problem of insufficient energy supply capacity, but also have a very important positive impact on tackling climate change and accelerating energy transition.

The realization of the "dual carbon" goal is an important driving force for the development of China's biomass energy industry, and if combined with bioenergy and carbon capture and storage (BECCS) technology, biomass energy will create a negative carbon emission effect, which will contribute to China's response to climate change.
