As the tempo hastens in discovering ways to wean ourselves off fossil fuels, bioenergy emerges as a viable contender. Already used widely—and successfully—in Scandinavian countries, bioenergy harnesses low-grade forestry materials and byproducts—biomass—to create a unique heat and power solution. And, unlike other means of power generation, bioenergy can also aid in reducing Canada’s carbon footprint through the permanent capture and storage of CO2 in its processes—presenting a sustainable solution while the need to adopt a viable answer to energy crises and climate change accelerates. On our site, read more about the untapped potential of bioenergy, and how Canada can—and must—work towards adopting these innovative, green solutions to best meet Canadian demands. |
