Wood Pellets

The wood pellets market

Energy, in fact, moves our history of humanity. Muscular strength, fire, animal traction, the strength of wind and waterfalls, which were essential for the development of agriculture and livestock in the early days, even mineral coal and fossil fuels that marked the Industrial Revolution.

In 1972, the oil crisis was the trigger for countries to turn their attention and investments to renewable energy sources, including pellets. Since then, especially now with the worsening climate crisis, these resources have gained more and more space in government policies and consequently in industry. According to the Statistical Review of World Energy, the share of forest resources in energy generation has increased to 10.4%, surpassing nuclear energy for the first time.

Wood Pellets

The present points to a prosperous future. Canada and the United States have already become buyers of pellets and, in addition, Europe, for example, is aiming to become the first climate-neutral continent by 2050. According to the European Ecological Pact (COM(2019) 640 final), the most ambitious package of measures should enable European citizens and businesses to benefit from a sustainable transition.

At a time when we are required a bold response to contain environmental degradation, pellets and chips, in addition to the ecological benefits, also concentrate advantages in their use such as low humidity, little smoke and high yield, contributing to reduce the emission of CO² in the atmosphere and consequently global warming.

The certificates we have earned demonstrate our commitment to the global market, the present and the future.

We are an SBP (Sustainable Biomass Program) Certificate Holder and our biomass comes with an SBP claim and is accompanied by verified energy and carbon data, from biomass producer to enduser, allowing carbon emissions calculations to be made. SBP is  recognised as compliant with international biomass sustainability requirements.

Within the framework of responsible forest management we are FSC® certified (FSC® C170692), an international certification scheme that ensures that products from well-managed forests provide environmental, social and economic benefits.

We are also certified under the GGL (Green Gold Label) certification programme for sustainable biomass. GGL is amongst the earliest biomass certification schemes and covers the complete supply chain from production, processing, transport to final use for bioenergy and biobased applications.
