Utilization of Peatland Biomass
The basis for sustainable use of peatland biomass is accurate and up-to-date research data on the resources and the site. Accurate information about the peatland biomass will ensure successful planning and resource-wise operations.

The basis for sustainable and resource-wise use of peatland biomass is accurate and up-to-date data on the resources and the site.
A survey of the baseline and current state of the peatland biomass resources determine the reference level and the factors affecting the start of operations. Customer-specific surveys provide a solid knowledge base for planning the operations.
Resource-efficient utilization of Finland’s peatland biomasses promotes the sustainable use of natural resources.
The GTK service identifies the target site’s resources, the properties of the peatland and any constraints that should be considered in the operations. The resource estimate can be prepared at different stages i.e., before, during or after the start of the operations. The survey can also be combined with an assessment of the environmental risks of acid sulfate soils, for example.
