Ecofor Consulting AB is interested in joining international research and innovation consortia under Topic 4, focusing on sustainable forest biomass mobilisation, efficient supply chains and the development of competitive forest-based markets.

We offer over 20 years of practical experience in forest fuels, bioenergy markets and the development and operation of forest biomass supply chains.

Our expertise combines knowledge of forestry operations, biomass procurement, harvesting residues, logistics and the economic and organisational conditions affecting forest fuel supply.

Potential contributions to research projects include:

- Assessing forest biomass availability, supply potential and barriers to resource mobilisation.

- Analysing forest fuel supply chains, including harvesting, extraction, handling, transport and delivery.

- Evaluating the operational and economic conditions affecting forest biomass procurement and logistics.

- Identifying opportunities to improve supply chain efficiency, biomass quality and resource utilisation.

- Assessing market conditions, competing biomass uses and business models for forest-based value chains.

- Supporting stakeholder engagement involving forest owners, contractors, biomass suppliers and energy producers.

- Contributing to feasibility studies, demonstration planning and practical implementation of new supply chain solutions.

Ecofor can participate as a forest biomass and value chain specialist, contributing industry knowledge, operational perspectives and practical assessments to complement research, modelling and technology development.

We are particularly interested in projects that address real-world challenges in forest biomass supply, logistics, resource efficiency and the transition towards sustainable forest-based value chains.
