Clean Energy From Nature,
Powering The Future
Transforming New Zealand's forest waste into renewable wood pellets
Our goal is to transform New Zealand's underutilized forest residues into a valuable renewable energy resource.
Oceania Wood Pellets Ltd. (OWP) was founded in 2025 to unlock New Zealand's potential as a global leader in sustainable bioenergy. At OWP, we aim to drive investment in commercially viable, market-driven pellet production facilities. These plants will create a sustainable outlet for forest residues, reduce waste, and contribute to a low carbon future.
0 Million Tons
of forest residues left unmanaged annually in New Zealand over the past 5 years
Creating environmental risks, increasing operational costs, and missing the opportunity to generate clean energy.
The Future is Renewable
Process heat is vital to New Zealand's industrial, agricultural, and commercial sectors, yet over half is still fossil-fuelled.
As industries move to decarbonise, demand for low carbon alternatives like wood pellets is set to grow

Wood pellets are clean and efficient fuel source for process heat generation
Pellets have ~10% lower calorific value than coal but burn more completely, offsetting energy loss. They produce no corrosive gases and are made from clean C-H organics, offering a cleaner alternative to coal and natural gas.
Our Approach
Our approach brings together forestry owners, transport providers, energy companies, and investment partners to build a resilient value chain. By converting unmanaged residues into premium white wood pellets
To turn a long standing forestry challenge into an opportunity for sustainable energy and economic development.
Environmental stewardship
Reducing slash related impacts and promoting responsible forest management.
Economic growth
Creating regional jobs and boosting the forestry value chain.
Energy transition
Delivering a scalable, renewable alternative to fossil fuels.
