Energy wood supply curves are generated as follows. In the base
year (2000) energy wood demand is based on IEA data regarding
solid biomass use for energy. After the base year, energy wood
demand is replaced by hypothetical energy wood prices, which
increase (or decrease) linearly such that they reach the desired
hypothetical prices: 0–30 $/GJ in 2050. Prices higher than 30 $/GJ
were not considered because they seemed to be irrelevant from
perspective of energy wood demand projections (e.g., GEA, 2012).10
