The study is devoted to an overview of the energy potential of agrobiomass in general and agrowaste in particular as the sources of energy independence for agricultural enterprises and communities. It is substantiated that in the conditions of increasing costs of traditional energy resources, instability of energy supply and the need to increase the level of energy security in Ukraine, the effective use of local biomass for the production of biofuels and energy is of particular relevance. The experience and forecasts of the use of various types of biomass for the production of biofuels in leading countries of the world are studied. It is determined that the greatest potential for the production of biofuels is provided by by-products of crop production, organic waste from livestock farming, waste from the processing industry and energy crops. It is proven that the development of second-generation biofuels based on non-food raw materials allows to increase the level of resource efficiency of the agricultural sector and reduce competition between energy and food use of raw materials. An algorithm for assessing the energy potential of agrobiomass and agrowaste has been developed, which includes the stages of identifying sources of biomass formation, collecting initial data, determining theoretical, technical, economic and energy potential, choosing processing technologies, assessing environmental efficiency and forming practical recommendations for the use of bioenergy resources. An algorithm for assessing the energy potential of agrobiomass and agrowaste has been proposed, which provides a comprehensive approach to determining the theoretical, technical, economic and energy potential of biomass, taking into account technological, environmental and organizational factors. It is substantiated that the introduction of modern bioenergy technologies will contribute to increasing the level of energy autonomy of agricultural enterprises, reducing energy costs, and reducing anthropogenic load on the environment. At the same time, the use of local types of agrobiomass creates the prerequisites for the formation of decentralized energy supply systems, increasing the sustainability of rural areas and strengthening the energy security of territorial communities.
