In 2022, the United States generated a total of 1,893 trillion British thermal units of electricity and thermal energy from biomass resources across the electricity generation, industrial, commercial, and residential sectors. The industrial sector accounted for the consumption of 77.3 million dry tons of biomass that year, primarily from wood and wood waste resources. This corresponded to approximately 981 trillion British thermal units of electricity and thermal energy.
