Recognizing the many economic and operational advances of converting wood waste into renewable sources of energy, Cleantech Transit Inc. has selected to invest in Phoenix Energy (www.phoenixenergy.net).

Many years ago wood was our main source of fuel, now this form of biomass energy is becoming a long lost energy source that is seldom used. Wood does still give us some of our energy but only on a very small scale.
In some parts of the world sugar cane is grown and can be fermented to make alcohol. Alcohol can be burned in order to generate energy in much the same way as coal. It is also possible to crush the sugar cane pulp or "bagasse" and burn it to produce steam to power turbines which can run generators. This is a form of biomass energy.

Plants are the most common source of biomass. They have been used in the form of wood, peat and straw for thousands of years. Today the western world is far less reliant on this high energy fuel. This is because of the general acceptance that coal, oil and electricity are cleaner, more efficient and more in keeping with modernization and technology. However this is not really the right impression. Plants can either be specially grown for energy production, or they can be harvested from the natural environment. Plantations tend to use breeds of plants that produce a lot of biomass quickly in a sustainable fashion. These could be trees (e.g. willows or Eucalyptus) or other high growth rate plants (such as sugar cane or maize or soybean).
