Short Rotation Coppice (SRC) is a method
used to produce renewable energy from fast growing tree species
such as willow. Trees are planted at a high density and harvested
on a much shorter rotation than conventional forestry. As an alternative
to fossil fuels, SRC benefits from being carbon neutral, in that
the carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere during its combustion
has been previously removed from the atmosphere during growth of
the crop.
