Efficiency of Biomass Energy used for Heating Purposes in a Residential Building in Comparison with other Energy Sources

Abstract

This paper discusses the results of analyses investigating the energy efficiency of biomass in comparison with other popular energy carriers used for heating, ventilation and water heating in residential buildings. The compared energy sources were lignite, natural gas, heating oil and electricity produced by conventional and integrated power generation plants. The most efficient variant relying on biomass and the least efficient variant that involves electricity generated by a conventional power plant were described in detail for the harsh climate zone of Suwałki region in Poland (climate zone V).
