\n

The production and trade of wood pellets are highly dynamic in Russia for some years now. The Russian Federation produced 1.8 million tonnes of wood pellets in 2018, 300 thousand tonnes of which (about 17%) was sold domestically.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

The total capacity of all Russian wood pellet plants increased slightly in 2018, to an estimated 3.6 million tonnes of finished product. Most of the pellet enterprises are in the northwest. Siberian wood pellet producers became more active between 2016 and 2018; today, Siberia is the Russian Federation\u2019s second-largest pellet producing region.<\/span><\/p>\n

Production in the Far East has good potential to grow, due primarily to the attractiveness of exports to Asia. In addition, the classification of wood pellets as high-tech products allows Russian producers to receive compensation for transportation when selling for export. The Irkutsk region of the Russian Federation contains one of the largest forest complexes in the country and is actively developing wood pellet production despite a lack of shipping options.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The average export price for pellet was 7,700 roubles per tonne in 2018. The average price (denominated in roubles) increased by 25% in 2018, due to favourable export markets and a weakening rouble (down by 12% against the euro in 2018, compared with 2017).<\/p>\n

Of the 2.7 million tonnes of wood pellets produced in the CIS in 2018, more than 80% (2.2 million tonnes) were exported.<\/p>\n

The main destinations for wood pellets exported from the Russian Federation were Denmark (669 thousand tonnes), Sweden (150 thousand tonnes) and Italy (147 thousand tonnes). About 64% of Russian export pellets went to these three countries, with the market in Italy growing by 136% (by volume) since 2016 (Trade Data Monitor, 2019). The Republic of Korea imported a similar quantity of wood pellets as Sweden in 2016 and 2017, but its imports from the Russian Federation fell by 50% in 2018, due mostly to the production difficulties of a key supplier.<\/p>\n

Wood pellets from the Russian Far East are struggling for market share in the Republic of Korea in competition with lower-priced pellets from Viet Nam, Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand (in descending order by market share).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
