Not too much biomass fortunately. But even with some googling I can't seem to find how anyone plans to produce enough biomass to keep this going
53% of power currently being generated by wind, the rest hydro. So there you go. They seem to be doing it, so there's your answer.
Yes they have multiple forms of energy generation, that does not answer the question as to wether their biofuel is sustainable. Yes it's carbon neutral (ish) but can they produce the biomass as fast as they consume it?
