Shifting wood between material and energy use: Modeling the effects of substitution
Journal of Industrial Ecology, Volume 28, Issue 5, Page 1198-1211, October 2024.Abstract Wood as a renewable material is relevant for climate change mitigation: Carbon sequestration in forests and carbon storage in harvested wood products (HWPs) contribute to carbon reduction in the atmosphere, and the substitution of carbon‐intensive products with wood products can reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.

Unraveling the Impacts: How Extreme Weather Events Disrupt Wood Product Markets
Earth's Future, Volume 12, Issue 9, September 2024.Abstract While extreme weather events are often localized, the potential effects on global forests can be far reaching due to the interconnected nature of forest product markets. To better understand these dynamics, this study leverages historical forest‐based wind damage data in the United States and applies this information as shocks within a global ...

Assessment of the Potential of Biomass Gasification for Electricity Generation in Bangladesh
Journal of Renewable Energy, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014 Bangladesh is an agriculture based country where more than 65 percent of the people live in rural areas and over 70% of total primary energy consumption is covered by biomass, mainly agricultural waste and wood. Only about 6% of the entire population has access to natural gas, primarily in urban areas.

Options to improve the carbon balance of the harvested wood products sector in four EU countries
GCB Bioenergy, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2024.In this research, we assessed the carbon sequestration impact of different wood product uses in four EU countries (France, Finland, Germany, Spain). Overall, our results suggest that the harvested wood product (HWP) carbon stock can be increased in the short‐medium term by prioritising the use of wood for material purposes while maintaining constant ...
