This report describes the results of a series of telephone interview with groups of users of information on biomass energy systems. These results, part of a larger study on many different solar technologies, identify types of information each group needed and the best ways to get information to each group. The report is one of ten discussing study results. Results from twelve biomass groups of respondents are analyzed in this report: Federally funded researchers (two groups), representatives of state forestry offices, private foresters, forest products engineers, educators, Cooperative Extension Service county agents, and system managers.

Global energy use is approximately 140 000 TWh per year. Interestingly, biomass production amounts to approximately 270 000 TWh per year, or roughly twice as much, whereas the official figure of biomass use for energy applications is 10-13% of the global energy use. This shows that biomass is not a marginal energy resource but more than capable of
