9. Supply & demand locations Supply is based around population Existing demand is largely northern The south east has large generation and limited consumption

10. Waste wood volumes General consensus is that approx 5m tns of wood waste is generated in the UK per annum Only 2.1m tns had a “home” in 2008. For “landfill” read “somewhere else” From slide by Poyry Question is how much will be accessible?

11. Where does waste wood currently go? The volumes going into the unknown end uses are large but it is almost impossible to determine how much goes where

12. Markets - Panelboard Pan European over capacity – Can 100% of UK industry survive? Regional bias – Majority of capacity is in NW England, NE England and Scotland Quality requirements – Panelboard feed stock is typically more solid wood than panel products

Markets - Biomass Existing UK WID facilities – 500k tonnes Mainland European demand – Swedish, German and Dutch supply from UK New UK Non WID facilities – RHI and public build schemes – New waste wood pelletising plants have been recently opened New UK WID facilities – Huge number in planning – Feedstock only exists for approx 750k - 1m tonnes pa then cannibalisation

14. Markets - Animal bedding & mulches High growth in animal bedding in mid 2000s – Lots of new entrants in 2008/09 Demand influencers – economic conditions – seasonality – availability of alternatives (straw, shavings etc) Pricing is determined by alternatives – rather than the wood market place
