Description: Wood pellet demand has been increasing driven by the increasing consumption of wood pellets in European and East Asian countries. The export of wood pellets from Canada to Europe has been increasing steadily in recent years (roughly 1.8 million ton in 2013). Due to distances involved, wood pellets remain in transit and storage for months before their final consumption. The net calorific value determines the price of wood pellets purchased in Europe. Small change in calorific value have a large impact on the revenue of the wood pellet producers. There have been concerns about the changes of net calorific values over time. Our work showed the effects of storage time, on the wood pellet quality, in particular the net calorific value of wood pellets for a period of 6 months. Storage configurations were
