1 Method to prepare and improve data on wood resource balance on national level Workshop on Forest sector modelling EFI 20 years Ulrike Saal University of Hamburg

2 Intro What s the issue? Demand for a comprehensive assessment of wood supply and demand New, relatively unknown sources other than wood from forests Need for empirical data Need for conversion factors Need for harmonisation of terminology To Fill data gaps within resource statistics Receive information on resource flows and market structures And information on resource mix of consumers 20 Years EFI - Forest sector modelling Ulrike Saal 2

3 Intro Wood Resource Balance Supply Demand Forest woody biomass Stemwood C Stemwood NC Sawmill industry Veneer plywood industry Material uses Forest residues Pulp industry Bark Panel industry Landscape care wood Other material uses Short rotation plantation Producer solid wood fuels Other woody biomass Sawmill by-products Other industrial wood residues Forest sector intern. use Biomass power plants Energy uses Black liquor Private households (pellets) Solid wood fuels Private households (other) Post-consumer wood Liquid biofuels Source: Mantau et al., 20 Years EFI - Forest sector modelling Ulrike Saal 3

4 Outlook Preparing data Sector analysis Data collection Improving data Wood flow analysis Market structure analysis What if? Modelling example Modelling volumes of industrial wood residues 20 Years EFI - Forest sector modelling Ulrike Saal 4

5 Preparing data Approaching the unknown Segmentation of the sector Data collection Pellets Wood burning Other woody biomass 20 Years EFI - Forest sector modelling Ulrike Saal 5

6 Preparing data Example wood burning sector Segmentation of the sector from private to commercial 1. Private households 2. Small-scale firing plants < 1MW 3. Large-scale firing plants 1 MW 4. Pulp industry plants industry internal wood energy use 5. Other industrial users Source: Mantau et al., 20 Years EFI - Forest sector modelling Ulrike Saal 6

7 Preparing data Example wood burning sector Data collection different market structures lead to different survey methods 1. Private households Representative survey of population with particular focus on Residential units (not households!) Assortments of wood energy used Source: Mantau, 2012b; Weimar, 2012 Fuel wood assortments (2010) 1,000 m³ Share Split logs (forest) 21,935 64,7% Split logs (garden) 1,937 5,7% Landscaping residues 0,698 2,1% Bark 1,842 5,4% Timber residues (Private & Sawmills) 2,857 8,4% Wood briquettes 1,426 4,2% Wood pellets 1,627 4,8% Chips / Saw dust 0,209 0,6% Other 1,388 4,1% Total 33, ,0% 20 Years EFI - Forest sector modelling Ulrike Saal 7

8 Preparing data Example wood burning sector Data collection different market structures lead to different survey methods 1. Private households (DE: 36,090,000 in 2010) 2. Small-scale firing plants < 1MW (DE: 51,207 in 2010) 3. Large-scale firing plants 1 MW (DE: 541 in 2011) 4. Pulp industry plants (DE: 23 in 2005) 5.

9 Preparing data Example wood burning sector Data collection surveys of firing plants Enquiry of all potential addresses and address sources Consolidation of address stock Questionnaire: Does the plant use wood? Verification of plant location Thermal firing capacity / legal permission Annual consumption (tons) and assortments Mail and subsequent telephone survey Target persons: operators of the plants Source: Weimar, Years EFI - Forest sector modelling Ulrike Saal 9

The latter fills some important gaps of actual resource issues. On the other hand end consumer aspects can be included as well e.g. to develop carbon sequestration models. 20 Years EFI - Forest sector modelling Ulrike Saal 22
