Abstract: Azwood Energy is an example of a company cleaning up forestry slash and using it as a low emission energy source to power industry and heat New Zealanders. The residues are then used to give back to the land - all helping to supercharge the economy while creating an alternative to fossil fuels. The company works in partnership with forestry, providing an environmental clean up of wood waste from skid sites, helping to prevent erosion and protect waterways. It uses this residue to produce low emission replacement energy for fossil fuels.
