Perennial Flower-Rich Wild Plants for Bioenergy: Two-Year Biomass Yield and Quality Assessment in Comparison with Miscanthus and Sida

Short Introductive summary

This study builds on previous studies on the combustion properties of perennial flower-rich wild plant species (WPS) and extends them with five additional WPS that have not yet been considered, as well as with biomass yield potentials of the individual WPS in comparison to Sida and Miscanthus. The results suggest that it would be worthwhile to further investigate the concept of targeted cultivation of individual WPS as new co-substrates for combustion (e.g., pellets, briquettes). In rural areas, this would mean new opportunities for increasing landscape heterogeneity, which would significantly contribute to improving the environmental sustainability of the bioeconomy.
