Residues2Revenues 2025 – expressions of interest

2 June 2025

The Residues2Revenues event is back, and will run on 21-22 October 2025 in Rotorua, New Zealand. Last year saw a record turnout, with over 200 attending from across forest management, harvesting, log cartage, and wood processing & manufacturing operations. Demand for woody biofuels, especially by larger industrial heat and energy users in New Zealand, is steadily increasing, and this event will continue to bring the sector together and showcase the real value of wood residues and the opportunities in supplying this growing market.

FIEA are currently pulling together the 2025 programme. We worked closely with a wide range of New Zealand, Australian and international companies, technology suppliers, researchers and government bodies within the forestry community to develop a strong and innovative programme.

This programme will cover:

  • Regional matters in forest biomass supply and demand
  • Biomass resource pricing: Supplier Perspectives
  • Wood energy market options: Buyers Options
  • Key drivers for forest resources for energy
  • Wood chipping and grinding innovations
  • Residues recovery and logistics issues
  • New bio-products for wood energy
  • Bioenergy hub developments
  • Biomass boiler innovations
  • EECA perspectives

Interest in presenting

If you are interested in presenting, please contact John Stulen on john.stulen@innovatek.co.nz or (+64) 27 275 8011. Further details of the event can be found on the event website.
