 compared a number of individual European reports, and found accumulation rates ranging from 0.42 to 3.8 tonnes per hectare per year, with a mean accumulation rate of 1.84 tonne (0.74 tonnes per acre per year), or 25% of total harvested carbon per year.Biomass in general, including miscanthus, have different properties compared to coal, for instance when it comes to handling and transport, grinding, and combustion.This makes sharing the same logistics, grinding and combustion infrastructure difficult.
