AB  - Now a days, the world needs a systematic monitoring system on the environmental impacts due to the increasing awareness of sustainable energy development. LCAs have become the essential tool for this application. Since, biomass has created the greatest potential in energy industries, the environmental impact towards its consumption has become the main concern. This study reviews the LCA studies of biomass power generation. Then, it focuses on the LCA of paddy residue-based power generation specifically in Malaysia. As a consequence, the reviewer can understand and be familiar with the current situation of LCA studies in biomass power generation, especially paddy residue electricity generation. The scenario of paddy residue-based power generation in Malaysia could be a case study in this review study. Hopefully, this study can encourage the application of LCA tools among researchers in evaluating the environmental impacts of developing a sustainable nation.
