Correct Answer: Biomass energy


Solution : The correct answer is (C) Biomass energy

Biomass energy is a non-conventional energy source that utilizes organic matter, such as agricultural residues, wood, or dedicated energy crops, to generate heat, electricity, or biofuels. Biomass can be burned directly or converted into biogas, bioethanol, or biodiesel through processes like combustion, gasification, or anaerobic digestion. Biomass energy is considered renewable as it comes from living or recently living organisms and can be replenished over time. It is a versatile and sustainable energy source that can help reduce reliance on fossil fuels and contribute to greenhouse gas emissions reduction.
