Biomass
Biomass is an organic matter of recent origin. The carbon dioxide released when energy is generated from biomass is balanced by that absorbed during the fuel’s production. This is called the carbon neutral process.Bio fuels are produced from organic material, either from plants of industrial, commercial, domestic or agricultural products. They are either woody biomass or non-wood biomass. Small-scale domestic appliances generally use wood pellets, wood chips or wood logs for fuel.
Cost and maintenance
The cost can vary depending upon size but the installation costs tend to be about the same. Stand alone room heaters cost £1500 to £3000 installed.
