[QUOTE="ringi, post: 3028670, member: 57632"] Firstly some notes to others: You don’t need to have a single boiler over 200KW (to get the better RHI rate), you can combine boilers into a system, so for example a cheap Farm2000 type boiler along with a modem boiler that uses 50% less wood to give the same useful heat output. Large (300KW) wood chip boilers seem to be a lot more forgiving on the MC of the wood chip and the size of the chips; they also have automatic ash removal systems etc. The best setup is if you [B]need [/B]the peak output for heating of buildings, but can outside of the few coldest days in the year use some of the boiler output to dry your logs. That way the capital costs is covered by the building heating. [/QUOTE]
