Is the 470 GJ/y (Gigajoule per year) correct as it seems very small amount of energy for the volume of biomass. The GCV of woodchip biomass 50%mc is approx 10GJ/t. So 470GJ would equate to 47 tonnes of biomass. Could it be PJ/y?

Maybe I’m missing something??

Regards

Lloyd

Dear Raphael
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. It is actually ‘million tons’ and not ‘metric tons’.

Best wishes
Salman

Good article! Wondering about your numbers though, when you say 150Mt my initial thought would be metric tons and not million tons. So if that’s the case is there a potential typo in the article above where ….”Indonesia produces 146.7 million tons of biomass per year, equivalent to about 470 GJ/y.”

Many thanks
Raphael
