Forest residues, roadside vegetation, and fuelwood.
Value throughout the tree
Within our Bioenergy business area, we make use of renewable by-products from forestry and sawmills and process them into biofuels for energy and heat production.
Our Resources
SCA’s extensive forest holdings and sawmill operations provide long-term access to bark, wood chips, sawdust, as well as branches and tree tops. Through our own production facilities, storage capacity, and established logistics solutions, we are well positioned to ensure reliable deliveries of renewable fuels for heat and energy generation.
Flexible Fuel Solutions
Our capacity enables us to tailor fuel mixes to meet specific customer requirements and plan deliveries using a range of transport options. This allows us to provide flexible and efficient logistics solutions that contribute to a secure and resilient fuel supply.
Our customers include SCA’s own industrial operations, combined heat and power (CHP) plants, local district heating providers, heating facilities operated by businesses and municipalities, as well as apartment buildings and private homes.

Strategically located terminals
With an extensive network of strategically located terminals and ports, we can efficiently deliver forest fuels and pellets by truck, rail, and vessel.
Our infrastructure enables us to tailor fuel mixes to meet customer requirements and plan deliveries using different modes of transport, creating flexible and efficient logistics solutions.
Delivery options
Truck transport offers great flexibility in terms of routes, delivery schedules, access to ports, terminals, receiving pits, and bulk silos. Deliveries by chip truck and bulk truck (pellets) are our most common transportation options for shorter distances.
Large pellet shipments can be loaded onto vessels at Luleå, Härnösand, Sundsvall, Karlskoga, and Sokna. Forest fuels such as bark and wood chips can also be delivered by vessel.
From several of our terminals, we can offer rail deliveries of fuels sourced from forestry operations and sawmills.
500,000 tonnes of pellets
Our pellet deliveries are made by bulk tanker truck or chip truck within approximately 350 km of our production facilities. For larger volumes, we also offer delivery by vessel.
SCA contributes to Sweden’s energy supply
How can Sweden become more resilient, both in everyday life and during times of crisis? Part of the answer lies in Sweden’s forests and the production of renewable energy.
From forestry to renewable energy
Biofuels are an integral part of the forestry and sawmill value chain. Within SCA Bioenergy, renewable by-products from forestry and sawmill operations, such as logging residues, bark, sawdust, and wood chips, are recovered and refined into fuels.

9,000 tonnes of jam are cooked using wood pellets
Danica Foods in Lycksele has been producing jam since 1994. What began as a berry cleaning facility in Rusksele has developed into one of Sweden’s largest jam factories. In recent years, the company has implemented several measures in its production, including switching from oil to pellets, which has reduced its use of fossil fuels.
Sustainable and reliable heating
When Nils and Lena built their house in Härnösand nearly 15 years ago, they wanted an environmentally friendly, energy-efficient home. A pellet stove became the heart of the house. Combined with solar collectors, rooftop solar panels, and a heat pump, they’ve created a sustainable, warm, and cozy home.
Sawdust becomes energy – fossil-free and efficient
Sawdust, a residual product from SCA’s sawmill, powers BEWI’s steam boiler. A fossil-free and efficient solution that provides both process heat and heating for the facilities. Read more about how BEWI harnesses energy, recycles waste, and produces insulation material made of 98% air.
