SCA wishes to grow in renewable energy and to offer more products that contribute to the sustainable development of society. Through efficient forest operations, industrial tradition and innovative development, the best possible conditions exist to create the biofuel of the future. SCA has a long-term goal to manufacture liquid biofuel from residual forest products of 260,000 m3, a volume corresponding to all fuel used in domestic flights in Sweden.
Petrol, diesel, aviation fuel and chemicals that are currently produced using oil, may in the future be manufactured from forest and forest industry by-products.
