Maximise the benefits from biomass

How to get the most out of biomass technology, and maximise returns in the long term.

Biomass heating systems are a cost-effective and sustainable solution for many healthcare buildings, yet some are not performing to the best of their potential due to poor system design, and a lack of adequate ongoing care and maintenance, argues Paul Clark, managing director at Rural Energy. Here he explains how to get the most out of biomass technology and maximise returns in the long term.

Biomass technology is extremely versatile, and can be used for a variety of applications, including district heating systems, CHP, industrial processes, and much more.

Biomass boilers can even be integrated with existing systems – for instance in hospitals and other healthcare facilities – to either provide contingency heating in the case of breakdown, or to boost output in times of exceptional demand. The advanced controls mean that the boilers are easily programmable to fit into ‘master and slave’ applications, and can provide heat to multiple outlets.
