Wood – A versatile, renewable energy resource
Energie-Spiegel Nr. 16 / April 2006

Wood is a CO2 neutral energy carrier, and the most important biomass resource in Switzerland for the foreseeable future. Since the amount of energy wood is limited, the focus should be on the most valuable energetic uses, without additional burdens on the environment.
