Tapping on the Growing Biomass Demand in China, Japan & South Korea

According to Enerone's recent report, Korean wood pellet imports grew by almost 300% in November 2013 and 2014's Q1 trade has been very lively with over 280,000 tons of imported wood pellets. Still, USD23.8 million of RPS penalty was imposed in 2013 as the six power supplying subsidiaries of Gencos recorded only about 60% fulfillment of the Renewable Portfolio Standards (RPS). So with the liberalization to allow imports of other pelletized biomass (e.g. from Oil Palm Pellet, Torrefied Pellet) into Korea from July 2014, this growth is set to continue as the Korean gencos' co-firing requirement is estimated to be higher than the current imported volume.

Japan is expected to increase importation of energy chips and wood pellets. Up until this year, Japan has imported only very limited volumes of wood pellet, primarily from Canada, but it is likely that import volumes of both pellets and energy chips will increase in the coming years. Major oil wholesaler Showa Shell Sekiyu is spending USD164 million to build Japan's largest biomass power plant of 49MW in Kawasaki near Tokyo

Paper manufacturers in Japan such as Oji Paper and Nippon Paper are hopping on the Japanese government's feed-in tariff (FIT) bandwagon by plugging into the biomass power generation with the wasted wood chips from forest thinning.

Major Japanese and Korean energy and trading companies are already exploring the opportunities to import pellets from Australia, Vietnam, Indonesia, the Philippines, Canada and the US. To meet this almost insatiable appetite, global suppliers are cranking up their production supply and logistics chain for export-ready pellets. Foreign investments and indigenous partnership are also fast-tracking the development of wood pellet production in Indonesia, Malaysia and Vietnam as well as other high calorific value biomass fuel such as Palm Pellets, PKS, etc. Bio-Coal, or torrefied Pellet, has also evolved from R&D to commercial productions globally and here in Asia!

The competition is intensifying and the action is right here in Asia. Attend CMT's Biomass Pellets Trade & Power and secure deals and partnerships.
