Earlier Report Observations

Production of non-coniferous wood fuel gradually declined from 632.6 million m³ in 2018 to 609.5 million m³ in 2023. The most pronounced decrease occurred in 2023, when a deteriorated economic context, a collapse in individual housing construction, and tree dieback reduced mobilized volumes and affected supply.

Throughout the period, demand for energy wood remained resilient, supported by stable energy prices, growing popularity of pellet heating appliances, and the development of wood energy installation projects with 20-year guaranteed contracts. Prices for energy wood rose sharply, particularly in 2022, with forest energy wood prices increasing by 72%.

In 2024, the market faced increased customs duties on European softwoods and hardwood sawnwood due to EU-US trade tensions, while the anticipated publication of the National Low-Carbon Strategy (SNBC 3) was expected to influence forest and energy policy.
