Descrição detalhada da prática ou projeto

The Association of Forest Communes has implemented data processing software. Based on the resource and consumption information of a chosen territory, the software allows to determine evolution scenarios of local wood supply for wood energy, industrial wood, and / or timber.

The elements brought:

1. Diagnosis for the wood supply of the territory

  • Estimated consumption on the territory (boiler / sawmills in place or in projects, private consumption …)
  • Determination of available and technico-economically available wood volumes
  • Quantification of possible excess volumes for other facilities / uses

2. Costs of mobilizing forest chips

  • Identification of logistic scenarios for the mobilization of forest chips
  • Calculation of the mobilization costs of the forest resource according to different scenarios

3. Equipment, service and environment

  • Proposals to optimize the supply chain
  • Identification of priority investments (tracks, platforms, hangars, etc.)
  • Consideration of environmental parameters in modeled silviculture • Calculation of realized CO2 savings

More than 50 PAT made in France.

Here are some actions “types” set up following the realization of the PAT:

  • sizing, location and realization of storage platforms;
  • Realization of a land diagnosis (accessibility constraints linked to fragmentation);
  • pooling of sites in relation to the estimated availability;
  • prioritization of the investment areas (animation on land, creation of storage / storage space …);
  • technical and financial support for the installation or rehabilitation of boiler rooms;
  • program to improve the use of hardwood in low availability contexts;
  • creation of specifications for good forestry practices validated by all partners;
  • creation of intermunicipal structures increasing the local demand for wood energy;
  • writing of management recommendations for wood energy in low availability contexts;
  • Establishment of a computer platform and cartographic following problems related to a lack of service, and allowing the easy and fast connection between the elected officials and the operators (transbois device).
