Journal Title: Наукові праці Лісівничої академії наук України - Year 2016, Vol 14, Issue
Abstract
Faced with the fact of dwindling conventional energy resources, coupled with increasing fuel consumption by many sectors of the economy, efforts are currently being focussed on improving methods aimed at increasing the share of energy from renewable sources. This situation mobilizes the European Union countries seeking it in different sectors, especially in agriculture and forest areas. Forest biomass in the form of logging residues from cutting or felling timber from thinning are some of the sources of timber harvesting waste for energy purposes. The paper, based on a review of the literature, shows the acquisition system of woody biomass from forests and aspects of using it for energy purposes
