Keith Logan: Wood elevated to 2nd fastest growing renewable energy source

What is the second fastest growing renewable energy industry in the world?

Wood pellets... The wood pellet market is growing at 20 percent a year, ...not...includ[ing] China!

[T]he actual force driving this market growth is the fact the European Union has mandated that 20 percent of EU energy must come from renewable energy sources by 2020, and industries which do not achieve this objective receive economic penalties; imagine energy policy with teeth.
