Catchment Area Analyses (CAA)

SHARE

The main purpose of our Catchment Area Analysis (CAA) reports is to provide evidence that we are meeting our biomass sustainability commitments. Set out in our Responsible Sourcing policy, our commitments help to ensure that we are delivering a positive impact for the climate, environment and for the communities in each area we source our pellets from (i.e. catchment area). The CAA process allows us to explore the key metrics, keeping a track of the carbon storage and sequestration dynamics in regions where we source – how forests are growing, and what they are being used for.
