Thats missing the point. Wood is most commonly burned for heat/warmth. Not for generating power.
Gas is not green.

Can you imagine just how much wood it would take to fuel a power plant?

I think you’re missing the point that this is about powerplants burning wood (usually in the form of manufactured, high-density pellets) instead of fossil fuels, to generate electricity. It is meant to be part of green tech because the carbon is cycled over decades (cut trees, burn, grow new trees) instead of pulling it from the ground, over 60 million years old, never to be put back.
