About Woody biomass power generation 2017 ②

Last year in 2017, I looked into the "1st International Biomass Power Generation exhibition" at Tokyo Big Sight.

If it becomes possible to introduce a large-scale equipment that only the priority of the thermal use than power generation is not recoverable cost high, and the equipment operation, to operate the business, the collection of the current woody biomass resources, and considering various circumstances such as efficient energy use, The sustainable power generation business is a difficult and unreasonable story even if the subsidy is used.　So, what should I do? The answer is one. First of all, the proper use of woody biomass based on the current situation is not the first form of power generation, and it seems that the priority of thermal use is high solid business profitability.

In United Kingdom, we removed woody biomass from FIT and started buying a fixed price instead of heat. The construction of a good cascade use system by the region for the time being, use the woody biomass readily available in the region as a heat source first, and consider the electric supply as the next step in the Japan. In some regions, it is advisable to introduce a cogeneration system (cogeneration systems) suitable for tall. In any case, the success of the use of woody biomass is essential to ensure the quality, the entrance to the stable of quantity, and the outlet of the heat (electricity) that is obtained from it. The entrance and the exit are secured, and it is orthodox to start planning the introduction of a proper equipment. I want to be careful because it is equipment for the production business of heat (electricity). By the way, it is no doubt that the utilization of woody biomass resources will be further increased from the viewpoint of reduction of greenhouse gases (CO2) adopted by the COP21 in France Paris and carbon neutrality. Based on fossil fuels, woody biomass power generation reduces CO2 emissions by 0.5 tons. On the other hand, it is said that it will reduce about 1 ton if heat production. From this, the policy and the system of the priority of the use of heat are developed than power generation?
