The geographical conditions of Azerbaijan have provided a favorable environment for planting all kinds of agricultural products. Therefore, in recent years, paying attention to the potential of biomass resources has been the subject of increasing research and discussions in this country. This study aimed to estimate the amount of biomass energy that can be acquired from agricultural residues in Azerbaijan. The energy potential of the residues was obtained by considering the calorific value and amount of available residues. For the year 2021, the total amount of available agricultural residues for the ten studied products was estimated at 1,099,346 tons. Cotton and barley had the highest amounts of waste with 47% and 14.47%, respectively. Also, the total heating value of residues was obtained 19610.4566 GJ. Therefore, according to the obtained results, part of the country's energy consumption can be supplied in this way.
