Factsheet: Austrian standard C 4005 - wood chips & shredder wood

EN 14961 is accompanied by the national standard C 4005 for the more practical application. It focuses on wood chips and shredder wood in firing facilities above 500 kW. It provides an easier qualification of woody fuels, less classification and lists of typical values for the ash content etc. On the basis of ÖNORM EN 14961-1, woody forest offcuts are defined as solid fuel originating from "forest and plantation wood as well as freshly-cut wood" sold under the designation "chipped woody offcuts" and "shredder wood". This ÖNORM shall be applied jointly with ÖNORM EN 14961-1.
