The wood pellet market in APAC is expected to grow from US$ 1,375.04 million in 2021 to US$ 3,344.99 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 13.5% from 2021 to 2028.



China, India, and South Korea are major economies in APAC. Rising demand for wood pellets from power generation industry is the major factor driving the growth of the APAC wood pellet market. With the growing focus on sustainability, the demand for biomass pellets such as wood pellets has increased considerably. Wood pellets can be significantly used to produce power in a similar way to using coal as a base material, which helps to transform the existing coal power stations into renewable bioenergy sources. Further, such pellets possess the required density and are in uniform shape, which eases their transportation and storage. The demand for wood pellets has substantially risen for power generation applications across several countries. In Asian countries such as China, Japan, and South Korea, wood pellets are primarily used for co-firing at coal-fired power plants. Also, India’s Intended Nationally Determined Contributions (INDC), provided to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), highlights that it is imperative to increase biomass installed production capacity to 10 GW by 2022 from the present capacity of 4.4 GW, including expansion of production capacity of wood pellets. This would work in line with the overall objective of increasing the dependency upon non-fossil fuel-based electricity generation capacity to 40% in India’s electricity mix by 2030. Electricity generation using wood pellets and/or co-firing of wood pellets with coal is aimed at meeting the Renewable Purchase Obligation (RPO) targets stated by State Electricity Regulatory Commissions (SERCs) in states where there are limited solar and wind facilities and possess extensive availability of agricultural and forestry residues. Hence, the demand for wood pellets is expected to rise in India considering the objectives and strategies framed by the state and central policies. Similarly, the demand for wood pellets is expected to expand with the growing focus on renewable energy sources.

The COVID-19 pandemic is anticipated to cause a significant economic loss to APAC. The Asian economies have been hit hard due to the pandemic. India has recorded the highest number of cases (31,855,783 cases with 426,785 deaths as of August 2021). The emergence of new COVID-19 waves in India, Thailand, and other Asian economies have prolonged the effect of pandemic upon GDP. The pandemic has been disrupting the growth of various industries in APAC. Furthermore, uncertainty regarding the future outbreak, especially in India and few other Asian countries, has seriously affected the performance of the industrial sector. These conditions have resulted in reduced demand for wood pellet. However, the market is expected to witness a surge in investments by existing players along with the entry of new players to cater to escalating demand in post-pandemic period.
