Popis:	This paper reports on an empirical investigation about regional economic impacts by the promotion of wood chip utilization in Maniwa city, Japan. We clarify the estimated potential of regional economy development by using input–output analysis for Maniwa city. The result indicates that 315 million JPY of woody chip products can be estimated to generate roughly 448 million JPY of direct, indirect, and induced economic effects. The value of 448 million JPY was equivalent to about 0.2 % of total production value in Maniwa. It is also expected to create approximately 21 jobs by promotion of wood chip utilization. We examined the regional economic impacts on the woody biomass utilization, and evaluated to estimate direct, indirect and induced economic effects, and job creation to clarify the economic impact on Maniwa. We will leave the negative economic effects and the environmental impacts in the process of woody biomass utilization as a future task.
