Abstract
- Highlights: [•] Wood energy supply chains are analysed for energy requirements and GHG emissions. [•] Use of residues and stumps for energy is evaluated for Irish conditions. [•] Results highlight transportation as the most energy and GHG emission intensive step. [•] Wood energy compares favourably with other biomass sources and fossil fuels. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
