Wood Energy Activities

• Joint Wood Energy Enquiry• Analysis of Wood/Biomass Energy

Policies• Capacity Building

• EE21 Project Proposal


Joint Wood Energy EnquiryWood Fuel Sources

S1: DirectLogging residues, thinnings, clearingsshort rotation coppice, etc.

S2: IndirectResidues, enhanced/ densified processed woodbased fuels (pellets, charcoal, biofuels), etc.

S3: RecoveredPost consumer recovered wood products (oftencontaminated), construction demolition, waste, etc.

S4: UnspecifiedUnspecified material where it is unclear what kind of material is used


Joint Wood Energy EnquiryWood Energy Uses

U1: Power and HeatTransformation of woody biomass for commercial powerand heat production - "Main activity producer" (IEA)

U2: Industry internal use:Heat and energy generated for internal use by the forest basedindustries (sawmills, pulp, panel) for processing and drying

U3: ResidentialWood energy generated by private households

U4: OtherWood energy generated by public and private services;agriculture, forestry and fishery

JWEE 2009Challenges

• Addressing the right correspondent: (Ministry of Energy / Environment / Agriculture or Statistics Office?)

• Complex questionnaire requiring significant resources and in-country capacity

• Agreement on definitions, conversion factors• Russian version in preparation


Policy AnalysisEU National Renewable Energy Action Plans

• In accordance with the Directive 2009/28/EC article 4,all EU Member States were requested to submit their National Renewable Energy Action Plan (NREAP)defining measures and strategies in order to reach their renewable energy 2020 binding target.

• National targets are set for the share of renewable sources in three sectors: – Electricity– Heating and cooling – Transport

EE21 Project Proposal

• “Modern and sustainable heat and power from woody biomass in South-Eastern Europe:”– Demonstrating the feasibility of converting municipal

heat and power systems in the Western Balkans to woody biomass

– Laying foundation for future investment projects– Detailed project proposals for one or two

municipalities in each of the participating countries

Thank you for your attention!


EU-27 Biomass energy

• National Plans contain several tables, however only Table 1, Table 7, Table7a, Table 10 and Table 11 were relevant to this study. These indicate:

An estimation of the gross final energy consumption in all sectors and for all types of energy (both renewable and conventional sources) in the period up to 2020. The domestically available biomass supply in the year 2006An estimation of the biomass domestic supply for energy generation for2015 and 2020 An estimation of the total contribution from biomass (solid, biogas and liquid) in each of the three sectors (electricity, heating and cooling, transport)

• According to preliminary findings and estimations from NREAPs, biomass willrepresent:

10% of EU total final energy consumption by 202060%of EU renewable energy consumption by 2020
