I was thinking about how to decentralize energy production. Coal, gas and uranium, wind and water are largely off limits to civilians.
What about biomass? What would be the minimum requirements to create a functional power source from greenwaste?

Same way with nuclear? It is all just heating water into steam and getting it to spin a turbine that spins a generator.

It is just really inefficient with wood.

Ineffecient alright, but in some areas greenwaste is plentiful. Perhaps a single residence electrical generator is unfeasible but I'm curious as to what the smallest scale that it might work, maybe if a small town put all it's biomass together.
The process undoubtedly could use improvement. Perhaps a catalyst of lye and aluminum.
