The paper presents an evaluation of the efficiency of the use of road trains for transporting fuel chips during operation in real natural and industrial conditions through the variability of the coefficient of adhesion weight (kst). The authors of the paper note that the transport and transposing aspect of the technological process is especially important in the formation of efficient technological chains for the production of biofuels and, in particular, wood chips for energy purposes. The analysis showed that it is rational to use wood chip trucks based on all-wheel drive vehicles (6x6) to ensure movement in all modes when operating in complicated and challenging conditions on road surfacing in an unsatisfactory condition. Vehicles for transporting wood chips for energy purposes, manufactured in Russia and Belarus, are at the level of foreign analogues in terms of the main technical and economic indicators, and in some cases surpass them.

Keywords: forest bioenergy, transportation of fuel chips, wood chip trucks, cohesive weight coefficient, cross-country ability
