Where should all that biomass come from? Farming and transporting all that probably consumes almost as much energy as you gain out of it afterwards.

Biomass is a nice niche powersource when used at sites with some surplus waste resource, but I think using it at scale has been thoroughly shown to do more harm than good by now.
