How Wood Pellets Help Combat Climate Change

Previously, sawmilling waste was burned or abandoned, posing fire and insect risks. Now, that same residue is transformed into high-quality wood pellets.

At Balcas Energy, we manufacture wood pellets sustainably, using virgin wood residue from our sawmilling process. Our pellets, made from locally sourced spruce and pine, come from FSC-certified forests. With delivery across the UK and ROI, we make it easy for consumers to reduce their carbon footprint.

Environmental Benefits of Wood Pellets Fuel Efficiency

Wood pellets play a crucial role in replacing fossil fuels. The energy industry increasingly turns to biomass to lower greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.

The United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) recognizes biomass’s potential to cut GHG emissions by up to 90%, provided it is developed and used efficiently. Balcas ensures that every pellet contributes to a cleaner environment through wood pellets fuel efficiency.
