Research on the Straw biomass power generation in Shanxi Province of China

As a kind of renewable energy utilization style, Straw biomass power generation will be developed vigorously in recent years in china. This paper attempts to made an overall estimate on the straw biomass generation resources in Shanxi Province of china; taking the 25MW straw biomass power generation of typical unit configuration as an example, we analyze its economic and environmental benefits in Shanxi. from the perspective of The results show that a straw power plant with installed capacity of 1·25MW will typically have benefits after 17years, but also large environmental benefits. And the suggestion in straw power generation planning capacity and unit selection in Shanxi are provided. From the results, we have reached some effective conclusions, which will provide basis for the straw biomass power generation project in Shanxi of China.
