P. 1 Biomass - Program 188 Program Overview Program Description Power produced from Biomass offers a renewable, low-carbon-emitting option for dispatchable energy. Additionally, biopower can provide local economic support, coproduct opportunities, and environmental benefits, including restoration. Despite the abundant benefits of Biomass -based power, overall development has been somewhat hindered by two critical issues: developing a reliable, sustainable supply chain, and producing cost-effective power with high efficiency. These two issues are the fulcrum of EPRI s research Program , providing context to a set of very complicated, interrelated issues. Participation in this Program also includes results of Biomass engineering and economic evaluations as described under the Renewable Energy Economics and technology Status Program ( Program 84).
