In 2022, the majority of thermal energy generated from biomass resources in the United States was derived from wood and wood waste. This resource accounted for an output of 1,242 trillion British thermal units of electricity and thermal energy. That same year, the total biomass-derived thermal energy produced within the the united states amounted to 1,302 trillion British thermal units.
