Subject: Regional wood energy development Please have a look at the internet site of the Regional Wood Energy Development Programme in Asia (http://www.rwedp.orguk/departments/cv/wedc/index.htmljuly99/july99.htm). Here you can download the document "Images of Wood and Biomass Energy in Industries in Thailand (1998)" with consumption data of the major fuelwood using industries. Though the document is about Thailand, it will give you some useful indication.
