Why Biomass Energy Production is Crucial for Tackling Climate Change in Pakistan

Air pollution and smog in cities like Faisalabad and beyond are significantly fuelled by the burning of crop residues and emissions from factories. The shortage of natural gas and the rising cost of wood and coal have further exacerbated the issue, as industries resort to low-quality fuels, intensifying environmental degradation.

To address these challenges, Pakistan has introduced biomass-based electricity and gas production technology for the first time. This innovation promises multiple benefits, including reduction in carbon and greenhouse gas emissions and affordable electricity and gas, lowering production costs for industries. By adopting biomass energy solutions, Pakistan can take a significant step toward combating climate change while improving industrial efficiency and sustainability.
