Short description
Supply of 4 single-family homes with green energy (short-distance heat – renewable energy)Point of departure
Individual logwood heating systemTargets and target groups
Heating at low cost, ecologically sound and regionallyProject implementation and measures
In the former stable of the farm a 85 kW biomass boiler is installed. The wood chips storage room with fuel discharge is attached outside. Those purchasing heat are all year round supplied with heat via plastic heat pipes and heat transmission stations with buffer storage tanks. In most cases by regional companies.Results and effects
● Working procedure simplified● Thermal use of residual wood from farm forests
● Securing farm jobs
● Employment of local enterprises
● Reduction of CO2 emissions
● Improvement of the air quality due to the replacement of old central heating systems
