energy wood
This appears to be the more correct term: "The harvesting of energy wood from young stands is increasing as the demand for renewable wood fuel is growing. Energy wood consists of stems, tree tops, branches and needles,
depending on the size of the trees and the logging method used. The current forest inventory
and planning systems used in private forests in Finland do not produce estimates of energy
wood components. In stands typical for energy wood harvesting, a large share of energy
wood consists of trees smaller than the minimum size for pulpwood." from the link referenced below, and others if you google.
If you replace your "energy stems" with "energy wood", I do not know what you will do with "and other small stems", which would now seem gratuitous.

Perhaps rephrase thus: "...intended for the simultaneous harvesting of energy wood, including small stems."
