heal.abstract	The possibility of specific woodfuel types utility, which are prolifically cultivated in the Northern Greece context, is examined as an alternative energy source in the conventional coal-based energy network. The examined parameters included the High Heating Values (HHVs), the densities, the annual total production and the annual proportional allocation of the available woodfuels. Particularly, the proposed woodfuel types were the sessile oak, the white poplar and the chestnut tree, since their mean proportional woodfuel production coverage constantly exceeds the 60% of the total woodfuel Greek production. The determining process of the proposed study focuses on the successful estimation of the actual energy demand in domestic hot water and space heating applications and consequently on the precise evaluation of energy production from the proposed woodfuels exploitation. The study's prosperity is further implemented through a detailed in an optimum environmental, economic and socioeconomic conditions overview. © 2010 Springer-Verlag.	en
