Earlier Report Observations
From 2018 to 2022, the coniferous wood fuel market in El Salvador remained stable at an annual volume of 13 thousand m³. This consistency was anchored in the country's heavy reliance on biomass for energy, which accounted for about 47% of primary energy consumption in 2018 and exceeded 52% by 2020, with the majority of supply coming from natural forests.
In 2023, the market volume contracted sharply to 7.5 thousand m³. By 2024, wood fuel still represented over half of national energy use, and global fossil fuel price fluctuations linked to geopolitical tensions were influencing the competitive dynamics of El Salvador's energy sector.
