Wood and wood waste was the primary source of biomass-derived electrical energy in the United States in 2022. This resource was responsible for the production of 324 trillion British thermal units of electricity and thermal energy. In that same year, the total biomass-derived electrical energy generated in the United States reached 556 trillion British thermal units.
