Enviva Biomass produces sustainable wood pellets that serve as a low-carbon alternative to fossil fuels like coal. The company sources its raw materials from low-value wood, such as treetops and limbs, which are by-products of the forestry industry. This not only reduces waste but also promotes sustainable forest management. Enviva sells these wood pellets to power plants and energy producers aiming to lower their carbon emissions, helping them meet regulatory and sustainability goals. Unlike many competitors, Enviva has established a reliable supply chain and focuses on community empowerment by creating energy jobs and supporting local economic development. The company's goal is to combat climate change while providing a consistent renewable energy source.
