Biomass Hot water systems

What is Biomass? Biomass refers to organic materials like wood chips, wood pellets, straw, miscanthus, or organic waste that are utilized as fuel in biomass boilers to generate heat. This heat can be employed for heating spaces and water, representing a sustainable source of renewable energy. Biomass stands out for its reliability, as it is not subject to weather conditions and can produce high-temperature heat instantly. Additionally, biomass energy, also known as bioenergy, plays a pivotal role in mitigating global climate change by substituting conventional fossil fuels like oil and gas. While fossil fuels introduce additional carbon into the carbon cycle, biomass is already an integral part of it. Consequently, biomass is both sustainable and environmentally friendly, serving as a carbon-neutral and renewable fuel.

Biomass also ranks among the most cost-effective low-carbon energy sources, seamlessly integrating into existing infrastructure. Biomass systems vary in size, ranging from small domestic setups, typically with a capacity of 10-15 kilowatts, to substantial power stations like the Drax facility. These systems can cater to the heating needs of individual structures or multiple buildings through district heating networks.

At Carbon Focus Engineering Ltd, we specialize in biomass systems ranging from 200 kilowatts to 8 megawatts. Furthermore, biomass is not limited to heating applications; it can also be harnessed for power generation, offering a distinct advantage of independence from weather conditions, unlike some other renewable energy methods.

With 18 years of experience, encompassing the design, installation, and maintenance of biomass heating systems, our expertise extends across diverse sectors, including schools, Ministry of Defence properties, large poultry producers and integrators, and commercial horticulture. We are committed to tailoring solutions that best match your heating requirements.
