Bioenergy News"The next five years in the B.C. forest industry are going to be without a doubt the biggest transformation we will ever see. The Interior already has 15 million cubic metres of timber - enough lumber to fill half a million logging trucks - going to waste in huge roadside piles because it can't be converted to lumber. And the province will continue to produce six million cubic metres of waste wood into the foreseeable future. Further, the ownership of the industry is changing rapidly with new investors coming in who see potential, the industry has $2.5 billion in duty refunds, and carbon credits trading is just over the horizon. It all adds up to "big opportunities for biomass energy using beetlewood...the industry is buzzing over the potential of electrical generation. There is a lot of momentum and interest...we are going to shift: from traditional lumber to energy." Source: Vancouver Sun, May 10, 2007.Contact Us
