Biomass Supply Availability Continued

The maps from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) on page 4 of the reading are not very clear. Here is a link to the maps for a more crisp view.

Biomass resources of the United States:

Forest residue

Crop residues

Total Resources by County

Figure 2.3. Distribution of forest residues for potential use in bioenergy production. (NREL.)
Figure 2.4. Distribution of crop residues potentially used in bioenergy production. (NREL.)

Figure 2.5. Generalized distribution of perennial feedstock sources in the U.S. (ORNL.)
Figure 2.6. Total biomass resources available within the U.S. (NREL.)
