Strategic Insights
Wood Chips Market Growth Drivers- Increased Demand for Renewable Energy: Renewable energy is considered a significant key driver of the wood chips market. There has been a growing use of biomass fuels like wood chips as countries and industries continuously look for cleaner sources of energy. The wood has given rise to increasing demand in power generation because it is a sustainable alternative.
- Benefits of Environment and Carbon-Neutrality: Wood chips on burning consider carbon neutrality, making them a perfect biomass feedstock for curtailing greenhouse gas emissions. Wood chips are becoming increasingly popular in the industry and governments since they are a better option for environmental benefits while moving toward a cleaner and more sustainable process for energy production.
- Raising Consciousness in Biomass Power Plants: The major contributor to letting wood chips market increase is the increasing number of biomass power plants for energy generation. The wood chips are most suited for electricity generation and industrial heating applications. Their availability and relatively low cost make them the first choice for the power and heat sectors, hence further increasing the growth of the market.
- Increasing Biomass Energy Conversion: Indeed, biomass energy conversion can be regarded as one of the most important prospects of the future for advancement in the wood chips market. It's true that biomass was a means of reducing dependency on fossil fuels when the entire globe turned to renewable energy sources. With so much biomass, wood chips are increasingly being tapped into for energy generation for the most diverse market opportunities.
- Reducing Carbon Emissions and Supporting Sustainability: Transforming wood chips into bioenergy benefits climate change by reducing carbon emissions and contributes to sustainable energy goals. The conversion methods, which include combustion and gasification, are catching up as the more environment-friendly means of powering demand for generation and heating applications. This is another driving force in the market for biomass fuels, considering the continuing emphasis on global green initiatives.
- Advancements in Biomass Processing: New techniques have also been coming up, making biomass energy conversion more cost-efficient and at the same time, minimizing losses. Development in biomass processing equipment and energy conversion technologies would change the attractiveness of wood chips as a reliable, cost-effective, renewable source of energy. As a result, there is increasing attraction of the wood chips market to investors and energy companies.
- Technological Advancements in Precision Agriculture: Advancements in technologies related to precision agriculture and forestry are responsible for the most considerable growth opportunities in the wood chip market. Sustainable management has been improved by the application of these future advanced technologies, optimizing the quality and quantity of timber resources. By effectively managing and shaping the growth and harvesting processes, an interesting guaranteed supply of high-quality wood will be ensured for chip production.
- Integration of Drones and Data Analytics to Revolutionizing Sustainable Forestry Practices: Drones, sensory tools, and data analytics have been the new way of precision agriculture monitoring for crops and forests. These devices collect measurements for growth patterns with tree health and resource needs, implying that the practice is sustainable for the trees. This is most effective in using less wood material because it conserves.
- Efficient Forestry Technologies: In this way of being very efficient in the money it uses, the forestry sector can further embrace these new technologies like remote sensing automated machinery for its logging processes to ensure maximum yield with reduced environmental damage. All these innovations will ensure more wood chips supply biomass energy and many more industries that will use wood chips for added applications making in the basket.

The company level information helps us in deriving the base number as well as in forecasting the market size.
- 3.4 Developing Base Number:
Aggregation of sales statistics (2020-2022) and macro-economic factor, and other secondary and primary research insights are utilized to arrive at base number and related market shares for 2022. The data gaps are identified in this step and relevant market data is analyzed, collected from paid primary interviews or databases. On finalizing the base year market size, forecasts are developed on the basis of macro-economic, industry and market growth factors and company level analysis.
- Data Triangulation and Final Review:
The market findings and base year market size calculations are validated from supply as well as demand side. Demand side validations are based on macro-economic factor analysis and benchmarks for respective regions and countries. In case of supply side validations, revenues of major companies are estimated (in case not available) based on industry benchmark, approximate number of employees, product portfolio, and primary interviews revenues are gathered. Further revenue from target product/service segment is assessed to avoid overshooting of market statistics. In case of heavy deviations between supply and demand side values, all thes steps are repeated to achieve synchronization.
We follow an iterative model, wherein we share our research findings with Subject Matter Experts (SME’s) and Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) until consensus view of the market is not formulated – this model negates any drastic deviation in the opinions of experts. Only validated and universally acceptable research findings are quoted in our reports.
We have important check points that we use to validate our research findings – which we call – data triangulation, where we validate the information, we generate from secondary sources with primary interviews and then we re-validate with our internal data bases and Subject matter experts. This comprehensive model enables us to deliver high quality, reliable data in shortest possible time.
