Frbiz.com, a leading B2B search platform in China, has reported that the bio-energy industry in China is currently entering into a golden era. Resources of biomass include materials such as cotton stalks, rice husks, rice straw, straw and other forestry resources like shell, sawdust, wood chips, branches as well as other forest products.
These are stable raw material sources and give a solid foundation towards biomass energy development. Currently, biomass energy includes fuel ethanol, diesel, straw power generation and biogas. Biomass energy is held in high esteem by the Chinese government. It is the most promising alternative energy to oil.
In terms of the development prospects of biomass energy, the forestry biomass energy in China has a great potential. In agriculture, China encourages the usage of straw, sugar cane and other raw materials of the non-food variety for producing fuel ethanol. The competitive advantage also presents great significance; since most of the biomass power plants are bound to achieve profits as their cost is much less when compared to the cost of photovoltaic electricity, thus making biomass energy indispensable.
