Some scientists back bioenergy as a far cleaner means of power than coal or gas, while many argue it is impossible to guarantee the emissions are reabsorbed, or negate the other pollution.
But it threw its support behind plans to make biomass carbon negative by capturing and burying the emissions under the North Sea in depleted oil or gas fields.BECCS will play an"important role" in meeting climate targets because it can remove CO2 from the atmosphere while also generating electricity, the CCC said.
"These companies should not be using billpayer money to burn wood from other countries' forests," she told Sky News.Will bioenergy with carbon capture work? Its spokesperson said the CCC identifies"the crucial role that carbon removals, and particularly bioenergy with carbon capture and storage , will play in delivering a reliable and resilient decarbonised power system".
A government spokesperson said the UK is"decarbonising faster than any other G7 country, while low-carbon sources like renewables and nuclear provide half of our total UK energy generation".
Stop subsidising energy companies with our money while we shiver & they stuff their pockets with record profits every quarter.
Burn coal instead
😑 beggars belief that they get top ups whilst still paying shareholders.
