Miscanthus
Miscanthus is a perennial grass, research in the UK and Europe investigated the criteria for the ideal energy crop for combustion to generate heat and electricity. The criteria for the ideal energy crop are high dry matter yield, perennial growth, and efficient use of nitrogen, water, other resources, and pest and disease resistance. Miscanthus satisfies these criteria, and the result is a crop that is both profitable and environmentally friendly. |
