wheat for biomass?

don't think current RHI's warrant the expenditure even if fuel was nearly free. what is it now, sub 4p?


The current rate on a 1MW Biomass boiler burns Grade AB waste wood and a WID compliant boiler for ALL grades inc Grade C is: T1 - 5.24p for 1314 hrs and T2 - 2.27p on rest. Definitely does stack up.£££££
The 1 MW WID compliant boiler is the way to go if got space to house 20m x 10m and burn 7 tonnes a day of ALL waste wood. This will generate all your heat and dry and pay a 20 yr RHI. GREAT INVESTMENT PLAN

Herz Ind WIDCompliant 995kw - Burns ALL grades of waste wood (ABC)
£700k inc Ceramic filter, buffer, plant room, flue (15m), dryer with duct, environmental permit.
Herz/Heizomat Biomass 995kw - Burns Grades A,B only £500k -
Both boilers will require heat use - water, drying grain etc, buildings etc, broilers.

Both Boilers can work as combined heat & power producing electricity which will reduce the heat output by adding an ORC

Both boilers attract RHI for 20 years and the CHP will attract an additional subsidy the ROK

I hope that helps, we can only provide specific information/spec data once we've had a first visit as this is bespoke to each customer with regards to planning/installation. This is not an off the shelf boiler and is not mass produced the timescale from order to install can be 6 mths

That's expensive although I'm not sure what you mean by 'drier with duct'?

Looks like a price hike due to the ability to claim ROC via CHP.
 
That's my point - spending a few 100k as part of a farming set up on energy future certainty can be money v well spent and easy enough to instigate.

Spending £1m takes it to a whole separate business entity which your average farmer isn't going to go for.
 
the heat from a boiler would dry it, its currently about 30% dm ,theres been little demand from organic farmers for about 1000 tons a year so producing heat/electric would be of interest, dont think ad would reduce the volume to be disposed of

1000 tonnes per year would be easy to shift through garden outlets. Uncle used to do 15000 tonnes of dried chicken muck very easily and could have done far more if he had it.
