Handbook available on biomass district heating

May 9, 2014, Vancouver, B.C. – A new publication is helping
communities across British Columbia and Alberta understand the business case
for using biomass for district heating.

The Community Energy
Association produced the Small Scale Biomass District Heating Handbook. The
Handbook was produced in partnership with WPAC, FPInnovations, Wood Waste 2
Rural Heat, the Agriculture and Food Council of Alberta, and the Agroforestry
& Woodlot Extension Society.

The 49-page document includes information on fuel supply,
distribution, finance and governance. It also provides information pellet
producers in the region and the cost of obtaining biomass fuel.
