BIOMASS:
Harnessing biomass is an extremely common form of heating and it's a fast-growing way to generate
electricity.

Traditionally, energy from biomass is translated to heat by burning organic materials. This is usually
done with wood stoves and, recently, wood pellet or grain-burning stoves.

For more information about wood and pellet heating, visit the
Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy
site from the U.S. Department of Energy.

Also, there is a growing movement toward capturing landfill gas as a form of electrical power generation.
This technology is not likely to be suitable for a homeowner or small business application, but may be
applicable for community-based waste management projects.

To learn more about the Landfill Methane Outreach Program, visit the
U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency site.
