Abstract

The market for biomass power plants continues to boom. Between 2007 and 2011, more than 750 biomass power plants with a capacity of over 8,200 MWel went operational – more than ever before. This growth will even accelerate in the years to come. Approximately another 820 power plants with a capacity of 12,500 MWel will be commissioned by 2016.

The internationally increasing subsidisation of renewable energies is the main reason for this growth. Biomass has a special status among the renewable energies as generating energy from biomass follows the demand – contrary to the energetic use of sun, wind and water.

The third edition of our study analyses the worldwide market for electricity generation from solid biomass. We have elaborated it in cooperation with energy agencies, public authorities and associations as well as with operators and plant manufacturers from the segment of electricity generation from biomass.

The analyst version of the report “The World Market for Biomass Power Plants” includes:
  • A detailed analysis of all essential political, economic, managerial and technical trends in the construction and operation of biomass power plants.
  • A concrete differentiation of the current and future market volumes by country up to and including 2016, based on a transparent and comprehensible methodology.
  • An overview on projects, including more than 870 new construction projects, of which more
    • than 260 are currently under construction, more than 100 were approved and more than 500 are being planned or discussed.
  • A description and analysis of the most important operators and plant manufacturers of biomass power plants throughout the world.
