Earlier Report Observations

The market for non-coniferous wood fuel in Honduras experienced a gradual, steady decline from 5 519 thousand m³ in 2018 to 5 372 thousand m³ in 2023. This slow contraction occurred as the product remained the most important domestic fuel in rural and urban peripheral areas, sustained by strong cultural traditions and economic factors that made it a cost-saving option for households.

Since 2019, the state-owned Instituto de Conservación Forestal (ICF) has promoted sustainable forest management and the production of wood pellets as a renewable alternative, initiatives that likely contributed to the slight reduction in traditional fuelwood consumption. Broader energy policy discussions, including potential subsidies for liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and energy efficiency measures, emerged during the latter part of the period, shaping the overall fuel landscape.

No major entries or exits of large production facilities were reported for non-coniferous wood fuel between 2018 and 2023. The market's volume showed consistent, minor annual decreases, reflecting its stable but slowly evolving nature under the influence of deep-rooted consumption patterns and increasing sustainability efforts.
