4 1 EUwood project idea / target EU-targets: Increase the use of renewable energy. Climate change mitigation Project target: Analyse best available data to estimate real potentials for changes (normally increases) in the use of forests and wood for: energy (household, municipal, industrial, etc.), wood processing (including bio-chemicals and bio-materials), non-wood use (including biodiversity and recreation).

5 1 EUwood project idea / target This analysis will include both qualitative and quantitative aspects In a quantitative analysis the study will based on available data, improve its reliability by combining and co-checking it within the structure of the wood resource balance. examine or estimate the direct supply from forest and woody biomass outside forest. examine scenarios for an outlook until 2030.

6 1 EUwood project idea / target This analysis will include both qualitative and quantitative aspects In a qualitative analysis the study will provide recommendations for balancing material and energy use, increase woody biomass potentials, propose means to overcome barriers of mobilization and outline proposals on how to integrate social and environmental constraints.

16 3 WP2 Description of methodology Other biomass Monitoring woody biomass sources and uses on a constant basis is costly Therefore calculation based on empirical studies factors and coefficients National used wood potentials could be calculated per capita, by business cycles or the proportion of sawmill by products based on information about size structure of national sawmill industries = 80 kg per capita used wood? = 38,5 % sawnwood by products? Consequently a calculation model on European level shall be achieved Such a model will be helpful to fill gaps via technical coefficients in countries and sectors where empirical studies cannot be carried out
