Generally speaking, the use of bioenergy has many benefits including: the reduction of greenhouse gases, the reduction of landfill waste, protection of groundwater supplies, reduction in waste management costs, cost-effectiveness energy supply and reduced carbon footprint, just to name a few. These reasons are few of the many that support the idea of investing in this source of energy in the near future.

According to a report produced in collaboration with the UK Energy Research Centre, a key reason why there is controversy regarding the use of bioenergy in a prominent manner, is due to the social and environmental risks involved. These mainly include concerns regarding land use, sustainable production of crops and the need for agricultural intensification. This report, however, sheds light on the potential that bioenergy has as a global energy source, using technical calculations and ethical assumptions.

One key fact that this report ...
