Is BioFuel production part of our future?

North Central British Columbia has been described as the Saudi Arabia of Biomass. As current estimates indicate that only 30% of the standing Bug wood can be harvested for sawlogs, this is a prospect some businesses are pursuing. Wood pellets do make a viable energy product and there are those working on feasibilities around producing charcoal. The jury is still out on whether you can pay the costs associated with harvesting and transportation to market for these products and still make a profit, but this may just require better procedures for sorting and grading of logs in the bush. My bet is solutions will be found.
