Summary: The objective of this paper is to analyse the biomass resource on the island of Ireland and see how it can contribute to our energy supply in the future. The paper mentions, but is not focused on the debate between crops for food production being in competition with crops for energy. Although Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland have a similar climate, and an analogous agricultural system, both Governments have different biomass policies and energy targets, and hence the paper considers the territories separately.
