Additionally, the wood pellets market is witnessing increased investments in production capacity and advancements in pellet manufacturing technology.

With the growing awareness of climate change and the need for sustainable energy solutions, the wood pellets market is expected to grow significantly in the coming years.

North America dominates the wood pellets market with an expected revenue of US$ 200 million in 2022, driven by increasing residential demand from the United States. The region sees a growing popularity of wood pellet stoves due to their cost-efficiency compared to natural gas and incentives like the Wood and Pellet Heater Investment Tax Credit (ITC).
