The current practice is to substitute biomass for up to 20% of the coal in the boiler. Cofiring has many benefits: it helps to reduce fuel costs as well as the use of landfills, and it curbs emissions of sulfur oxide, nitrogen oxide, and the greenhouse gases associated with burning fossil fuels. This Federal Technology Alert was prepared by the Department of Energy's Federal Energy Management Program to give federal facility managers the information they need to decide whether they should pursue biomass cofiring at their facilities. 517 1 $aFederal Energy Management Program 606 $aBiomass energy$vCase studies 606 $aCoal-fired power plants$xFuel$xCosts 606 $aRenewable energy sources 606 $aLiquefied petroleum gas 615 0$aBiomass energy 615 0$aCoal-fired power plants$xFuel$xCosts. 615 0$aRenewable energy sources. 615 0$aLiquefied petroleum gas. 712 02$aUnited States.$bDepartment of Energy.$bOffice of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy. 712 02$aFederal Energy Management Program (U.S.) 801 0$bDOX 801 1$bDOX 801 2$bGPO 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910698569303321 996 $aBiomass cofiring in coal-fired boilers$93114152 997 $aUNINA
