What is the European Pellet Conference?

The largest annual pellet event worldwide!

The last year was challenging for the pellet sector: The policy debates on European level and in some Member States, market fluctuations and supply chain issues were some of the topics.

The 2024 Pellet Conference – the largest annual pellet event worldwide – will focus on how the acceptance of pellets as an important element in the clean energy transition can be regained, and how the positive contribution of pellets to forest health and circular economy can be increased. It will present news from policy, markets and technologies. The event is part of the World Sustainable Energy Days (WSED), a leading conference on the energy transition and climate neutrality.
