N2 - Greenhouse gas reduction occurs as a result of substitution of woody biomass for coal. Coal
is the worst amongst all the fossil fuels in terms of greenhouse gas emission per unit of
electricity generated. Recent concerns related to the environmental impact of greenhouse
gases from using fossil based feedstock, like coal, for the generation of power, specifically
electricity have driven the need to identify alternative bio-based energy technologies in the
USA, UK and Germany.
