We compared five different wood biomass supply chains for fuel (both firewood and wood chips). We evaluated both the economic and environmental aspects connected to different wood biomass fuels. The economic analysis showed that it is more profitable to produce firewood rather than wood chips. Forest wood-based fuel has an environmental impact lower than fuel oil, but higher than natural gas.
