Biomass Carbon Estimator
Compare the lifecycle emissions of biomass supply chains against standard fossil fuel benchmarks.
CO2e Savings Estimator
Compare biomass supply chain emissions vs. fossil fuels
This model assumes standard supply chain emissions for pellets (processing & transport). Actual values range significantly based on sourcing distance.
Projected Annual Emissions
Equivalent to planting 175 trees annually.
Methodology Note: This calculator uses simplified emission factors for educational purposes. Combustion emissions for biomass are treated as biogenic (neutral) in this model, assuming sustainable forestry practices that re-sequester the carbon.
Supply chain emissions (process & transport) are factored in at ~50kg/MWh, but can vary widely (10-100+ kg/MWh) based on sourcing distance and pelletization efficiency.
