just for variation ...

Explanation:
"biomass for power production", "biomass for generation", and such like, are the things I have found.

Note that "biomasse électrogène" gets just one ghit (yours!) so it is not as yet an established term in French, and I doubt it yet has an established equivalent in English either.
