Large-scale bioenergy deployment key to achieving climate goals, study finds.
The study looked at how using bioenergy can help reduce CO2 emissions and combat climate change. Different models showed that bioenergy can be a flexible and effective way to cut emissions, especially when combined with carbon capture technology. The availability of bioenergy technologies and biomass supply greatly influences how much bioenergy can be used in different sectors and regions. Even if there are constraints on biomass supply, using bioenergy can still help reduce carbon emissions. The study found that the timing of bioenergy technology readiness is more important than the cost in achieving emission reduction goals.
