Denmark to launch wood chip trading exchange

摘要

Trading is scheduled to begin on 2 February on Biomasspool, an online trading platform for wood chips in Denmark aimed at increasing transparency and sustainability standards. The platform expects to launch with four suppliers and five buyers signed up to trade, Biomasspool director Kenneth Lykkedal said today. Up to 100,000t of wood chips are expected to trade on the platform during 2018. Danish wood chip demand will overtake wood pellets by the end of this year if all the planned projects come on line on schedule.
