  The growing biomass consumption in developing countries context is being driven by a mixture of concerns over energy security, sustainable development and the climate change mitigation. The development of the comprehensive, sustainable and efficient biomass energy sector policies, strategies and investments requires proper biomass utilization and planning which in fact has not yet received the attention it deserves in the developing countries policies. This paper aims are twofold; one being to demonstrate the practicability of the application of artificial neural network multilayer perceptron (ANN-MLP) in the analysis of the biomass energy consumption and two, to identify the demographic and economic indicators which works better in the analysis and prediction of biomass consumption in Tanzania. Three models made up of Tanzania rural, Tanzania urban and Tanzania population with the ad.. View More»
