Development of an business segment called "Waldbiomasseversorgung-SÜDOST" through senior utilization of non active wood

A sharp increase in the Austrian industry's demand for wood, and in particular the rising need of biomass plant operators for energy wood, has led to a fundamental transformation of the timber market from a buyer's to a seller's market. New marketing opportunities in terms of a range of wood energy products, combined with an efficient way of harvesting, have opened up new economic prospects for the forestry industry.

IEA Bioenergy Task 39: Biofuels to Decarbonize Transport (Working period 2025)

IEA Bioenergy Task 39 is a network of international experts that aims to drive forward the decarbonization of transport with the help of sustainable biofuels, with a focus on the long-distance transport sector (aviation, shipping, heavy duty vehicles), which is more difficult to electrify. The aim of the national work is to collect and analyze information on the global technological and political status of biofuels and thus contribute to the development of sustainable, socially and environmentally compatible biofuel systems.
