Automated wood pellet stoves

Automated wood pellet stove

Wood burning systems, unlike other renewable energy
sources, emit carbon dioxide. However, as the wood
fuel is cultivated, it absorbs the same amount of carbon
dioxide as is released when burnt. As such it does not
add to the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

To be eligible for grant funding, wood-pellet stoves can
be used for heating a single room, hot water or an entire
building.

Conventional multi-fuel room heaters/stoves
(i.e. log/coal) and kitchen ranges (e.g AGA) - are not eligible for funding.
