Industry News Comment W


elcome to the Autumn issue of Forest Bioenergy Review. As we continue to deal with COVID-19 and the impact this has on our day-to-day activities, it has been pleasing to see that the number of new


registrations for FBR has grown month on month. In addition, over the past three months, we continued to see the reliance on fossil fuels decrease, the adoption of green energy make headlines around the world and we also noticed an increase in the activity around postponed deals now being signed off and major providers signing long-awaited contracts.


Here at FBR and Pulp, Paper & Logistics, we have also used the


lockdowns imposed on us to complete six months research and industry collaboration on Green Packaging International, a new magazine launching in November, 2020. This enables us to go all the way from the forest to those mills producing packaging materials and now to those who subsequently convert these materials into packaging for the future.


Coming up, we have the October E-Newsletter and then issue


48, Winter 2020, where we will take a look at Air emission control technology, Combined heat and power solutions and Biomass screening, sizing and drying.
