Course details
Renewable Energy Sources: This unit covers the different types of renewable energy sources, including biomass, solar, wind, and hydro power, and their role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and mitigating climate change. •
Biomass Energy Conversion Technologies: This unit explores the various technologies used to convert biomass into energy, such as anaerobic digestion, gasification, and pyrolysis, and their applications in power generation and heat production. •
Biomass Feedstock Management: This unit focuses on the management of biomass feedstocks, including crop selection, harvesting, and storage, and the importance of sustainable feedstock management in ensuring a reliable and renewable energy supply. •
Biomass Energy Market Opportunities: This unit examines the market opportunities for biomass energy, including the demand for renewable energy, policy and regulatory frameworks, and the role of biomass in meeting energy security and sustainability goals. •
Sustainability Assessment of Biomass Energy Systems: This unit covers the assessment of the sustainability of biomass energy systems, including life cycle assessment, carbon footprint analysis, and social and environmental impact evaluation. •
Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS): This unit explores the concept of BECCS, which involves capturing CO2 emissions from biomass power plants and storing them underground, and its potential to remove more CO2 from the atmosphere than it emits. •
Policy and Regulation for Biomass Energy: This unit discusses the policy and regulatory frameworks that support the development and deployment of biomass energy, including tax incentives, subsidies, and renewable portfolio standards. •
Biomass Energy and Food Security: This unit examines the relationship between biomass energy and food security, including the potential impacts of biomass production on food crops and the need for sustainable and efficient biomass production systems. •
Biomass Energy and Climate Change Mitigation: This unit covers the role of biomass energy in climate change mitigation, including its potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and contribute to global efforts to limit warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels. •
Sustainable Biomass Production and Supply Chain Management: This unit focuses on the sustainable production and supply chain management of biomass, including the use of sustainable feedstocks, efficient production systems, and responsible supply chain management practices.
