The production of non-coniferous wood fuel in Canada exhibited significant volatility over the past decade. From a high of 3.32 million cubic meters in 2014 and 2015, production sharply declined to a low of 0.65 million cubic meters in 2018. Despite some recovery to 0.95 million cubic meters in 2019, production again fell to 0.78 million cubic meters by 2020. As of 2023, production stood at 0.79 million cubic meters. Over the past two years, the average growth rate has been negligible, with a CAGR of 4% observed in 2023. Looking ahead to 2028, the anticipated CAGR is -1.09%, indicating a continued downward trend, with production expected to decline to 0.74 million cubic meters. Future trends to watch:

Transition towards renewable energy sources in Canada may further impact non-coniferous wood fuel production.
Policy changes and incentives for sustainable forest management may alter production dynamics.
Market demand fluctuations and technological advancements in biomass energy could influence future outputs.
