The first three months of 2016 saw a 28,8% increase of Ukrainian wood pellets export

These rates show that Ukrainian manufacturers make productive efforts to expand available distribution areas as well as to find new ones. Moreover, this means that the level of wood pellet consumption is constantly increasing in the world and in Europe in particularly. Poland (11,657 tonnes), Italy (4,422 tonnes), the Czech Republic (3,603 tonnes) and the Slovak Republic (1,732 tonnes) are among the biggest importers of Ukrainian wood pellets in 2016.

Ukrainian pellet export results in the first quarter of 2016

According to Ukrainian Biofuel Portal, in the first quarter of 2015 the domestic manufacturers exported 25 679.1 metric tones (ТM) of wood pellets. This number increased up to 33 079.6 ТM in the first quarter of the current year. One can see an increase of 7400.5 ТM during this period, which accounts for 28.8 % in percentage correlation. In the first quarter of 2015, 23 countries imported Ukrainian wood pellets.

In IQ 2016 the exporting countries themselves as well as their numbers have somehow changed. Ukrainian wood pellets have already been exported to 27 countries. The structure of export has also changed to some extent. So, in the first quarter of 2015 the main wood pellet consumers from abroad were Poland, Italy, the Czech Republic, Germany and Great Britain (in descending order).

the amount of consumption of wood pellets and briquettes may grow one and a half times

The reason for this growth is the trend towards the conventional fuel types substitution with renewable sources of energy and the desire to diversify energy supplies, thereby to save their own market from the economic and political factors of instability.
