Industry Overview - Wood Pellets Industry


The following content is excerpted from the prospectus of Pinnacle Renewable Holdings Inc. dated December 15, 2017 filed on SEDAR.

  Regional Supply - Europe

European industrial wood pellet producers had nameplate capacity of approximately 6.9 million MTPA as of September, 2017. Approximately 46% of Europe's industrial wood pellet capacity is produced in the Baltic States (Estonia, Latvia, Finland and Lithuania), due in part to the significant forest resources of that region. The balance of industrial wood pellet capacity is produced in Portugal, Germany and other regions. Due to the strong demand for residential heating and industrial wood pellets within Europe, wood pellets produced locally are typically consumed within the region. A portion of Europe's wood pellet capacity is used to supply the local residential heating market. As European demand greatly exceeds regional supply, Europe is a net importer of wood pellets, supplied predominantly by North American sources.
