Several CHP plants are already built in Sweden for production of energy from wood, municipal waste, and forest biomass.
Biofuels produced from non-food lignocellulosic biomass, such as agricultural and forest residues, municipal solid wastes and energy crops are believed to be an important sustainable solution for the future transport energy deficit and the green house gas emission problem [ 1].

The two pipelines would cross more than 1,000 water bodies and 245 miles of pristine forest, potentially endangering municipal water supplies and ecologically sensitive habitats.
National assessments of potential bioenergy resources in Australia including agricultural crops and residues, native grasses, forestry (plantations, short-rotation tree crops and native forests) and organic municipal solid wastes based on statistics published by Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics (ABARE) (Farine et al. 2012; Crawford et al. 2016; AREMI 2017).
