"Biomass" plants aka wood furnaces with a bit more marketing serve a political purpose. Renewables have an intermitence problem which will require a huge storage and peak load infrastructure solution to address it. Until that problem is solved the "Biomass" wood furnaces and "Natural" Gas power plants serve the political purpose of allowing politicians to claim that they are ditching 'dirty' coal and 'dangerous' nuclear, those solutions will probably still create less CO2 emissions but they are by no means "green" or "eco" anything. The problem with renewables is not power production but Power intermitence. Offshore wind farms can help but the scale of power that we consume will need a much deeper ground-breaking technical solution or a vastly greater power consumption reduction from consumers and industry, or both.
