Are biomass power stations just another word for nuclear power stations?

No, nothing to do with nuclear. Biomass means vegetable matter grown for burning, and comes under Renewable Energy as it can be regrown every season.


What are the disadvantages of biomass power stations?

Some disadvantages of biomass power stations include emissions of greenhouse gases and air pollutants during the burning process, the potential competition with food crops for biomass sources, and the requirement for large land areas to grow biomass crops. Additionally, biomass power generation can sometimes be more expensive than fossil fuels or other renewable energy sources.

How Energy Efficient is biomass?

Biomass is considered to be a relatively energy-efficient source of fuel because plants used for biomass absorb CO2 during their growth, creating a closed carbon cycle. However, the energy efficiency of biomass can vary depending on factors such as the type of biomass, processing methods, and transportation distances. Overall, properly managed biomass resources can be a sustainable and energy-efficient source of renewable energy.
