Abstract

We analyze the problems of using waste products of the forestry sector for energy purposes with the central ecological zone of the Baikal natural area as the case study. From the standpoint of the energy sector, the two main problems that hinder the spread of wood fuel are discussed: pricing and transport of the end product. From the standpoint of the forestry sector, the main problem is the transport of wood from logging sites. We investigate the influence of the annual amount of wood feedstock at wood processing enterprises on the optimal method of wood waste recycling. It is concluded that, at present, wide adoption of fuel pellets and wood chips proves impossible unless supported by state measures.
