Biomass energy comes from growing vegetation and then burning it to produce energy. This can be done quickly and locally and many organic materials can be used, often the residue from sugar cane or the offcuts from sustainable timber. This is why it is cheap. It is also carbon neutral so it does not affect global warming.
they have some cetain amount of biomass
Wood burning in a fireplace would be an example of energy from a biomass.
A NON-example would be anything that isn't biomass ... grammar, for example.
When you build houses and roads over where the biomass grew. When the biomass takes longer than a human lifetime to regenerate. When the biomass culture destroys the ecosystem. ================= Thus in terms of fuel to power humanity it is clear that biomass in NOT a renewable resource.
