Active Energy Group overview with Michael Rowan CEO

The biomass market is predicted to grow based on an increased need for alternative energy sources. Although it is mainly Europe that has faced the energy crisis in the past year, the need to use biomass in the

Active Energy (AEG), an international biomass based renewable energy business, has announced Player Design, Inc. (PDI) has received the relevant permitting for the construction and operation of a CoalSwitch manufacturing facility at PDI’s site in Ashland, Maine. The

To reduce greenhouse gas emissions, biomass has been increasingly developed as a renewable and clean alternative to fossil fuels because of its carbon-neutral characteristics. It is a form of solar energy stored in biomass through plant photosynthesis. China has been

Biofuels are replacement fossil fuels, usually bioethanol, biodiesel, renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuels, made out of sustainable biogenic resources. Everything from wood offcuts, to agricultural by-products, used cooking oil or beef tallow and even algae can be turned

Renewable energy is energy derived from natural sources that are replenished at a higher rate than they are consumed. Sunlight and wind, for example, are such sources that are constantly being replenished. Renewable energy sources are plentiful and all around

The term “Biomass” sounds complicated, but it isn’t. It’s just material from animal and plant waste that we can convert into energy. Biomass has energy from the sun stored in it. Whereas plants get energy directly from the

Biomass is the material derived from plants that use sunlight to grow which include plant and animal material such as wood from forests, material left over from agricultural and forestry processes, and organic industrial, human and animal wastes.

When it comes to issues around sustainability and energy, there are few subjects less controversial than biomass. Often hailed as a lower carbon option for heating or generating electricity, biomass involves the burning of wood pellets, chips or

In a recent opinion piece (“We can’t burn our way out of the climate crisis,” Concord Monitor, 4/2) readers are warned that New Hampshire is facing a climate crisis and that we must move further away from fossil

The race is on to transition to low-carbon alternative fuels and biofuels are gaining momentum.But what are biofuels? They are gaseous or liquid fuels produced from biomass – organic matter of biological and non-fossil origin. Easily adaptable to existing

The increasing demand for renewable energy sources has led to the growth of the biomass power market. The global biomass power market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.73% from 2023 to

The production of energy in the EU is spread across a range of different energy sources: solid fuels, natural gas, crude oil, nuclear energy and renewable energy (such as biomass, hydro, wind and solar energy).  In 2021, the largest contributing source to primary energy production in the EU was renewable energy (41% of

The European Union reached a deal Thursday to almost double the share of renewables in the 27-nation bloc’s energy consumption by 2030 amid efforts to become carbon neutral and ditch Russian fossil fuels. The provisional political agreement, which

Sustainable structural timber offers a range of benefits related to reducing the environmental footprint of buildings and construction processes. PBC Today explore how sustainable structural timber (SST) can contribute towards achieving net zero. Structural timber is a sustainable

Exactly what is biomass? Biomass boilers are now being seriously considered by some homeowners, particularly those off-grid, looking for an alternative to gas and oil boilers. But how is biomass fuel made and is it really a ‘green’
