Biomass
- In the first section of this paper we provide details of our investigations of the use of biomass to produce heat and power using conventional cogeneration processes in two Australian hospitals, and to provide heat to one German hospital. For the Australian applications municipal solid waste was considered as the primary source of energy while for the German installation we have studied the use of wood chip which can be produced from biomass cultivated and harvested on site, or from waste biomass purchased from external sources. In the second section we show that farmers are now able to use abundantly available renewable energy sources at an affordable cost. To demonstrate this concept, with reference to specific applications, we discuss the use of biogas in a dairy farm in Australia and the use of biomass in a farm in Southern Germany.
