An entire study concisely shows the importance of biomass for sustainable energy development concerning biomass impact, which supports industrialists’ needs to govern the largescale energy sector and policymakers to explore different biomass for sustainable energy production. This chapter also provides a framework for researchers to emphasize energy generation from various biomass sources through affordable and better productive technologies. The current status of renewable energy resources available in abundance for human consumption and the energy sector has been documented. The distribution of energy from renewable resources in both the world and India has been compiled and depicted in the form of a graphic representation. Global energy consumption and CO₂ emissions, the reason for the energy crisis, and an adequate solution to the energy crisis have been proposed. Implementation of various advanced technologies for converting biomass of five categories into energy; first-, second-, third-, and fourth-generation of biomass and waste resources were reviewed and compiled. Method of conversion by advanced thermochemical and biological processes into useful bioproducts (biodiesel, bioethanol, biogas, biochar, etc.) has been defined clearly in this chapter. The conversion of cellulose-rich biomass by pre-treatment, saccharification, and different fermentation processes has been explored. Overall, this chapter will serve as a baseline for further exploration and assessment of biomass’s impact and its productive utilization.
