China is rich in biomass resources. The biomass resources mainly used for power generation include agricultural and forestry waste, municipal solid waste, and biogas. According to statistics from the National Energy Administration, in 2020, biomass power generation will add 5.43 million kilowatts of installed capacity, and the cumulative installed capacity will reach 29.52 million kilowatts, an increase of 22.6% year-on-year; of which, the newly installed capacity of waste incineration power generation in 2020 will be 3.11 million kilowatts, and the cumulative installed capacity will be It is 15.33 million kilowatts, accounting for 51.9%; the new installed capacity of agricultural and forestry biomass power generation is 2.17 million kilowatts, and the cumulative installed capacity has reached 13.3 million kilowatts, accounting for 45.1% of the installed capacity; the newly installed biogas power generation is 140,000 kilowatts, the cumulative installed capacity It reached 890,000 kilowatts, accounting for only 3.0%.

China's biomass power generation has maintained a steady growth trend. In 2020, China's biomass power generation will be 132.6 billion kilowatt-hours, an increase of 19.4% year-on-year, and continue to maintain a steady growth momentum.

According to the "Market Operation Situation and Investment Prospect Evaluation Report of China's Biomass Power Generation Industry for 2021-2027", from the perspective of power generation structure, waste incineration power generation equipment has the highest utilization rate. In 2020, China's waste incineration power generation will be 77.8 billion kWh. The proportion is 58.7%; the power generation from agricultural and forestry biomass in 2020 is 51 billion kWh, accounting for 38.5%; the power generation from biogas in 2020 is 3.78 billion kWh, accounting for 2.9%.

The top five provinces with cumulative installed capacity of biomass power generation in China in 2020 are Shandong, Guangdong, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Anhui. Shandong’s cumulative installed capacity of biomass power generation is 3.655 million kilowatts, accounting for 12.4%; Guangdong’s cumulative installed capacity of biomass power generation is 2.824 million kilowatts, accounting for 9.6%; Jiangsu’s cumulative installed capacity of biomass power generation is 2.420 million kilowatts, accounting for 12.4% Is 8.2%.

The top five provinces in China for biomass power generation in 2020 are Guangdong, Shandong, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Anhui. Guangdong’s biomass power generation is 16.64 billion kWh, accounting for 12.5%; Shandong’s biomass power generation is 15.89 billion kWh, accounting for 12.0%; Jiangsu’s biomass power generation is 15.89 billion kWh, accounting for 9.5% .

From the perspective of the development of biomass power generation in 2020, the cumulative installed capacity of agricultural and forestry biomass power generation has basically caught up with the installed capacity of household waste incineration power generation. In addition, the newly installed capacity of biogas power generation is also increasing steadily. As the only zero-carbon renewable energy, biomass energy is benefiting mankind! Editor/Sang Xiaomei
