Biomass Production from Crops Residues: Ranking of Agro-Energy Regions

Abstract: Abstract:The aim of the paper is to rank the agro-energy regions according to their potentials of biomass production in the Region of Central Macedonia (RCM). For this reason, a model of Multi-Criteria Analysis (MCDA) is developed with the ELimination and Et Choix Traduisant la REalite (ELECTRE) III method, with the construction of outranking relations. The aim is to compare in a comprehensive way each pair of action, in our case the agro-energy regions of the RCM, in order to satisfy the main goal which is to… Show more

“…Among the various feedstocks, solid biomass are the most efficient material from which energy can be recovered, is the most effective in conversion technology, and is the least expensive to produce [7,8]. Solid biomasses include wood, wood wastes, such as sawdust and woodchips, pellets, straw, stalks, and animal manure, and they are composed of several organic components that can be broken down for energy production [9][10][11][12]. The only limit to bioenergy generation is biomass availability.…”

“…Agriculture is one of the most significant sectors, which is characterized by the greatest potential for sustainable economic development [5,7,9,16,[28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39]. Specifically, renewable sources represent good alternatives to fossil resources in the primary sector, which are inadequate in quantity and are prone to exhaustion [31,38,[40][41][42][43].…”

“…Examining one of the recent notions of 'sustainability', energy can be assumed as the fourth dimension of sustainability. With the four sustainable dimensions (energy, economy, society and environment), rural districts can provide greater maintainable growth, also focusing on a sustainable (energy) future, which in literature is perceived by the "agro-energy districts" [32][33][34][35][36]. However, very often such innovative realities present their intrinsic limits.…”
