| Indonesia: Wood-based bioenergy highlighted at Asia Pacific Forum |
| 11/11/2008 - 14:55 |
A number of high-level officials highlighted the benefits
of using wood-based bioenergy at the Asia Pacific Forum
in Jakarta, Indonesia, according to Antara News. Forestry
Minister MS Kaban expressed hope that the Forum would
yield positive recommendations or formulas for the
development of wood-based bioenergy in response to the
need for renewable energy sources in many countries. He
noted that wood-waste used as bioenergy could also help
offset carbon emissions and hoped that wood-waste
bioenergy prices could eventually compete with the price
of fossil fuels.
ITTO Executive Director, Emmanuel Ze Meka, said that
the development of wood-waste as an alternative energy
source would help create new jobs and industries to
produce bio-energy within the forest sector. Timber
industries in rural areas were expected to particularly
benefit from the development of bio-energy, helping to
improve the economy in local villages, build the local
workforce and create new energy sources.
