Advanced Woody Biomass Alliance Launches to Unite Expanding Sector

The World Bioenergy Association welcomes the launch of the Advanced Woody Biomass Alliance (AWBA), a new global platform uniting stakeholders across the woody biomass value chain.

Building on the foundation of the U.S. Industrial Pellet Association, AWBA reflects the growing role of woody biomass as a versatile, renewable carbon solution, supporting applications in energy, advanced fuels, industrial processes and carbon removal.

By bringing together industry, policymakers and stakeholders, the Alliance aims to strengthen collaboration, advance supportive policies and accelerate investment in woody biomass markets worldwide.

This development highlights the increasing importance of sustainably sourced biomass from working forests in delivering scalable, low-carbon solutions across sectors.
