4. Structure and economics of the wood-energy sector
In response to the need to develop clean, renewable energies, a number of structures and associations have been set up to help private individuals, industrialists and local authorities organize the entire process involved in running a boiler plant: design, sizing, construction, supply, maintenance, ash disposal...
Within this framework, Ademe is the central body structuring the sector and organizing its development.
In 1994, Ademe developed the first program to support the use of wood energy, particularly in the collective and tertiary sectors: the Plan Bois-Énergie et Développement Local (PBEDL). Eleven regions took part, enabling the commissioning of a large number of collective and industrial wood-fired heating systems (190 systems for a total investment of almost 400 million francs (6 million euros).

Structure and economics of the wood-energy sector
Conclusion
Economic data
Wood consumption and equipment installed
Wood-energy accounts for around 6% of primary energy production in the European Union, producing mainly heat and very little electricity.
It is the European Union's main source of renewable energy (almost 60% of primary energy production from renewable energies is due to wood).
France is one of the four European countries...
