When sizing energy crops to be packaged for use as a biomass feedstock for biofuels, bioproducts or biopower, there are several factors throughout the supply chain that should be considered. While our finished products are tailored to the application of the consumer, these guidelines ensure each production run achieves the desired quality and specification. It [...]
At Genera Energy, we are “feedstock agnostic”, meaning that we work with any feedstock that is the right fit for a given project. Some projects benefit from a diverse portfolio of biomass sources, whereas other operations are uniquely aligned to one particular feedstock. Biomass sorghum is an annual crop that Genera Energy has extensive experience [...]
It is easy to understand the due diligence required to prove a new technology before a commercial scale project can obtain financing. Having a long-term offtake agreement with favorable terms is another box that has to be checked. But many project developers and technology providers in the biofuels, biochemical and bioproducts space underestimate the efforts [...]
As Genera Energy continues to develop industry leading biomass supply chain solutions, we are always on the lookout for new and improved dedicated energy crops. These crops may be relatively new species not commonly thought of for bioenergy or may be existing crops that exhibit improved through genetics or with which new agronomic systems have [...]
You might be surprised what all you can buy insurance to protect these days: homes, cars, boats, your health, teeth, life, even your pet’s health or a quarterback’s arm, and that’s just scratching the surface. But risks in production agriculture are different from risk in most other segments of the economy where they are biological [...]
Managing our inventory of biomass feedstock comes with its own unique set of challenges. We typically deal with baled biomaterials such as switchgrass, miscanthus, and corn stover as well as a number of chopped and milled energy crops. All of these feedstocks are subject to physical material losses which inevitably leads to economic losses. Therefore, [...]
When working with energy crops like switchgrass, we like to keep our inventory dry so that better results in particle size reduction and quality may be achieved. While this is considered a best practice for our processing operations, it can create challenges in implementing an effective fire prevention plan. In the context of a hazard [...]
While cost-effective biomass feedstock supply chain systems often focus on maximizing crop yields, there is another way to amplify efficiencies in the supply chain. By increasing the bulk density of the feedstock in the transportation and packing process, it will result in additional cost savings. Bulk density is a term used to describe the amount [...]

Primary Energy Cane production research locations, B. Baldwin, MS State Energy cane (Sacharum spontaneum) is simply sugarcane that has been bred and selected for biomass or fiber production over sucrose production. Work has been ongoing at several deep south universities (LSU, MS State, FL) and federal labs (ARS) to evaluate the [...]
