| Energy efficiency in the WBP industry |
 |
| Improving the energy efficiency of the WBP manufacturing process provides great potential not only to further improve the CO2 balance of wood products, but also for cost saving reasons. Science-based knowledge about the individual sub-processes is needed to evaluate the energy saving potentials, and to further develop the processes with regard to their energy efficiency. |
