Earlier Report Observations
From 2018, Liberia's non-coniferous wood fuel production began a consistent upward trend, reaching 9 166 thousand cubic meters that year. This growth was initiated by comprehensive forest sector reforms, including the launch of a national wood traceability system (LiberTrace) and 2017 regulations promoting the production and use of sustainable wood-based bioenergy, which stimulated demand for wood fuel.
Production expanded steadily each year through 2023, exceeding 10 758 thousand cubic meters. The continuous increase was underpinned by the enduring effects of the regulatory framework and the domestic focus on wood biomass for energy, with the entire output consumed locally as imports and exports remained absent.
In 2024, the sector's evolution is influenced by the ongoing implementation of the Voluntary Partnership Agreement with the European Union to improve forest governance and timber legality. Global factors, such as enhanced traceability demands like the U.S. Lacey Act and changes in international trade flows, also shape the operating environment.
