Abstract

Biomass energy has great potential for development in an emerging economy with abundant agricultural by-products. However, countries with developing economies still need help in developing biomass conversion. This study aims to identify the driving factors of biomass production. The mix-method approach was employed to find determinants of biomass to measure the impacts of the identified factors. The expert panels, a pilot test, and a final survey were used to measure the effects of identified factors empirically. The results present that logistics and biomass prices have the most direct significant impact on production while the government supports play leverage in motivating firms to invest in biomass conversion. Moreover, this study also found the indirect influences of human capital and access to credit in biomass conversion. The economic benefits are an essential motivator for firms, province officials, policymakers, and government in developing biomass conversion from agricultural by-products.
