“…Yet, concerns regarding the net carbon (C) impacts of increased forest harvests are rising. Due to the reduction in forest C stocks associated with increased use of forest biomass relative to a counterfactual scenario with lower harvests, it often takes considerable periods of time until forest bioenergy actually provides net C savings in comparison to fossil‐based reference systems (“fossil fuel parity time,” see Cherubini, Bright, & Strømman, ; Cintas et al, ; Gustavsson, Haus, Ortiz, Sathre, & Truong, , ; Holtsmark, ; Hudiburg, Law, Wirth, & Luyssaert, ; Jonker, Junginger, & Faaij, ; Lamers & Junginger, ; McKechnie, Colombo, Chen, Mabee, & MacLean, ; Sterman, Siegel, & Rooney‐Varga, ; Vanhala, Repo, & Liski, ; Zanchi, Pena, & Bird, , ). Depending on different influencing factors (management practices, tree species, types of fossil fuels being displaced, which parts of trees are used for energy and other uses, etc.…”
