Decarbonization of the power generation system in Central America

Abstract

Global warming is considered the most important cumulative environmental impact of contemporary times. One of the strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions is the decarbonization of anthropogenic activities. One of the routes marked for this purpose is to decarbonize the energy sector, specifically the generation of electricity. Biomass is one of the renewable sources that, in addition to contributing to this purpose, allows stabilizing the electricity distribution network, given its firm power characteristics.
