Energy supply and demand: trends and prospects 15 BOX 3 Impediments to accurate woodfuel information Statistical information on woodfuel consumption has always been difficult to obtain. The main reasons are: • High intensity surveys are necessary to collect accurate information since woodfuel production and consumption vary greatly across locations and at different times of the year. • Woodfuel is mostly collected for the collector’s own use and not sold in specific locations, such as markets, shops or factories, which would facilitate collection of information. • Because of the low price of woodfuel in most countries, the sector is of little economic importance and investment in collection of statistics is therefore considered of little value. • Many countries do not have the financial and human resources required to collect woodfuel information, especially as the countries where woodfuel is most important may also be the poorest. • There is often poor coordination between institutions with an interest in the sector (e.g. government agencies dealing with agriculture, forestry, energy and rural development), and the benefit of information collection may be insufficient for any one agency. • Many government forestry agencies focus their efforts on commercial wood production and neglect non-commercial forestry outputs. • Information about woodfuel suffers from a lack of clear definitions, measurement conventions and conversion factors, which creates difficulties in comparing statistics across regions and over time. • Because of widespread illegal logging, production may be under-declared and therefore the extent of wood residues available for energy use may be underestimated. Source: Broadhead, Bahdon and Whiteman, 2001 the last 15 years global consumption of woodfuel has remained relatively stable, at between 1.8 and 1.9 billion cubic metres. Figure 10 shows woodfuel consumption for OECD and non-OECD country groups between 1990 and 2030. The global trend indicates increasing consumption of woodfuel, largely a reflection of increasing consumption in Africa. Non-OECD countries in Asia and Oceania are, in contrast, showing a downward trend as rapid increases in income occur and urbanization takes place. Future consumption in OECD European countries is expected to be greater than shown in Figure 11 due to recent EU plans to increase the proportion of renewables in total energy use to 20 percent by 2020 (European Union, 2007).PDF Image | Energy supply and demand
