Given the previous levels of Russian exports, this will of course have an impact on supply worldwide, not just to the UK but for other countries too who are all now competing for the same premium product from similar suppliers.<\/p>\n<p>\"With UK and international sanctions in place, we estimate that total European production may be reduced by some 12pc to 15pc, so there may be some short-term price rises due to the ongoing situation and heightened competitiveness between countries.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Most homes in the UK are heated by gas-fired boilers but gas costs have also rocketed over the past six months to about five times long-term averages.<\/p>\n<p>Dual-fuel gas and electricity bills are set to climb\u00a0by more than 50pc next month when the price cap on energy bills is increased to an average of \u00a31,971.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Lebus said the Government should try to bolster domestic production of wood pellets for heating to reduce reliance on imports and create new jobs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe UK cannot provide the required volumes needed, and therefore we import on a considerable scale and become drawn into a growing energy crisis,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Homes and businesses heated by biomass boilers face skyrocketing costs as supplies of wood pellets are disrupted by Russia\u2019s invasion of Ukraine.
