Summary
As the demand for clean energy escalates, so does the significance of biomass in shaping Asia's sustainable energy mix. With its vast biomass resources and growing commitment to renewable energy, the region offers a compelling environment for bioenergy deployment.
From the forests to agricultural residues and organic waste streams, the diverse biomass resources available hold the promise of driving a sustainable energy transition. Harnessing biomass for energy offers a unique opportunity for Asian countries to reduce their reliance on coal power, mitigate greenhouse gas emissions, stimulate job creation, and attract investments leading to economic development.
In this endeavour, the World Bioenergy Association (WBA) together with Bioenergy International, is organizing the webinar “Opportunities for Biomass Deployment in Asia”.
The panel of experts will share their insights into the advancements made in biomass deployment, shedding light on the economic, environmental, and social benefits that come with harnessing this renewable resource. By understanding the opportunities and challenges involved, we aim to foster discussions that can accelerate the adoption of bioenergy solutions throughout Asia.
