Negative emissions technologies (NETs) in general and bioenergy with CO2 capture and
storage (BECCS) in particular are commonly regarded as vital yet controversial to meeting …

Background The soil represents a reservoir that contains at least twice as much carbon as
does the atmosphere, yet (apart from 'root crops') mainly just the above-ground plant …

Planting the perennial biomass crop Miscanthus in the UK could offset 2–13 Mt oil eq. yr− 1,
contributing up to 10% of current energy use. Policymakers need assurance that upscaling …

Modern agriculture is heavily dependent on fossil resources. Both direct energy use for crop
management and indirect energy use for fertilizers, pesticides and machinery production …

This review addresses the main issues concerning anticipated demands for the use of land
for food and for bioenergy. It should be possible to meet increasing demands for food using …

Sorghum is emerging as an excellent genetic model for the design of C4 grass bioenergy
crops. Annual energy Sorghum hybrids also serve as a source of biomass for bioenergy …

In the context of the energy crisis, biomass energy has been widely used owing to its wide
distribution, astonishing storage capacity, and carbon neutrality. Pelletization is an …

The Paris Agreement, ratified by 181 countries, agrees to limit global warming to “well
below” 2 C. To fulfil this pledge, total global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions post-2010 must …
