This paper is organized as follows: Section 2 describes the model
and data. Section 3 presents the results of the model (i.e., estimates
on energy wood supply curves). In Section 4 we compare the
estimates to some other studies. Finally, Section 5 summarizes the
results and discusses some of the policy implications of energy
wood supply curves.
and sources of woody biomass through the market mechanism.
Second, it includes a detailed spatially explicit description of woody
biomass supply from forest and plantations. Third, it separates
energy wood supply and demand from each other. Fourth, the
land-use competition between food, wood and energy production is
modeled explicitly. The focus of the paper is on global level results.
However, some regional level implications will also be highlighted.
