This study addresses the management and optimization of decentralized bioresource energy generation under conditions of political instability, using Ukraine as a representative case. The research aims to enhance energy security and operational resilience where centralized energy infrastructure is vulnerable to disruption. A high-efficiency technology for decentralized heat generation is proposed, based on the direct combustion of non-standard agricultural biomass with a one-year renewal cycle. The methodology combines experimental and statistical analysis of biomass feeding processes with advanced three-dimensional modeling of mixture formation and combustion, as well as the development of an artificial intelligence-driven automated control system. The system enables the use of sunflower, rapeseed, wheat, corn, and other agricultural residues with variable particle size and moisture content of up to 40%, without the need for pre-drying or pelletization. An original jet–vortex bioheat generator and optimized dosing systems were designed to ensure continuous and stable combustion. An operational algorithm allowing stable performance within 25–100% of nominal capacity was formulated based on statistical evaluation of screw feeder behavior and optimization of adjustable electric drive parameters, ensuring thermal carrier temperature stability within ±1–2 °C. The main novelty lies in the integrated optimization framework combining unconventional biomass utilization, adaptive electric drive control, and AI-based automation to achieve high energy efficiency and environmental performance. The results indicate that such decentralized systems can substantially strengthen national energy security and support sustainable energy supply in unstable political environments.
