The Forestry Commission estimates that on average, a native woodland captures 480 – 530 tCO2e/ha after 50 years, and 625 – 700 tCO2e/ha after 100 years. Their planting densities are approximately 1,100 trees per hectare and they estimate that 2 trees will take up a tonne of CO2e at maturity (50 – 100 years).
