The Prospect of Biomass Energy Resources in Bangladesh: A Study to Achieve the National Power Demand

This paper presents a brief overview of recent electricity generation status, energy scenarios, biomass energy resources in Bangladesh, and technologies related to the use of biomass resources. The energy demand in Bangladesh has been increasing at a significantly high rate. The primary energy sources are coal, natural gas, oil, etc. but this kind of source will run out. Now the second most important energy source is renewable energy. Since biomass is a potential renewable energy source, it can be one of the best options. This work discusses overexploited biomass resources such as forest biomass and underexploited biomass resources such as municipal solid wastes and animal manures.
