Wood Flows in Austria 2022 - energy production

The graphic “Wood Flows in Austria 2022 – Energy Use” illustrates how wood is used for energy generation in Austria and which sources contribute to this use. It shows the energy utilization of wood along the value chain, including fresh wood, industrial wood, by‑products from sawmilling and wood processing, as well as recovered wood. The graphic highlights the principle of material use prior to energy use, with energy generation relying primarily on by‑products and wood assortments not suitable for further material processing.

The data is based on comprehensive analyses of the Austrian wood value chain.
