Abstract | In recent
years, the European wood pellet market has seen a significant growth and
production capacities have been expanded continuously. In view of a further
expansion of pellet production considerable potentials by the year 2020 could be
identified. When it comes to allocating biomass potentials as input flows for
pellet production, itemized according to the quality standard prEN 14961-2 for
use in appropriate target markets, above all, significant potentials could be
pointed out for the production of wood pellets quality class B (suitable for use
in medium and large scale boilers). In the long term, the major biomass
potential for future pellet production lies in the cultivation of energy crops
(SRC) and the use of logging residues. With regard to the further expansion of
pellet production sustainability requirements for the energy supply with pellets
and utilization rivalries will increasingly come to the fore in future
exploitation of pellet potentials. It is only by means of international
certification systems along the whole bioenergy production chain that a constant
pellet quality up to the customer can be ensured. Currently, there are no
sustainability requirements for the production and the energetic use of biomass
pellets. |
