What is energy from woodwasteand garbage called?

Energy derived from wood waste and garbage is commonly referred to as biomass energy or waste-to-energy (WtE). Biomass energy utilizes organic materials, such as wood, agricultural residues, and municipal solid waste, to produce heat, electricity, or biofuels. Waste-to-energy specifically involves the conversion of non-recyclable waste materials into usable energy through various processes, including combustion and anaerobic digestion. Both methods contribute to renewable energy production and help reduce landfill waste.
