This is a false climate solution. The burning of wood at scale is not a green-energy solution.
More robust and appropriate constraints, policies, checks-and-balances that are trackable and enforceable need to be in place to ensure that ONLY scrap material, excess off cuts from standard forestry practices and mill by-products are able to be pelletized, since the current industry (and all expansion and easing of "regulatory burden") has too many blind spots that allow for virgin trees to be directly manufactured into pellets.
Any incentive in this industry that increases likelihood and risk of further logging and deforestation for the purpose of wood pellets (which are also quite a dirty-burning fuel source) is a BACKWARDS step in creating real climate and environmentally sustainable solutions.
