What is a industrial biomass boiler?

A biomass boiler is a type of boiler used in industrial settings that burns organic materials such as wood pellets, chips, or logs to generate heat and power.

The term ‘biomass’ refers to the use of organic matter as an energy source. By using these materials as fuel, biomass boilers are able to provide sustainable and cost-effective heating for large buildings and facilities.

The first biomass boilers were developed during the mid-19th century, but it wasn’t until the early 20th century that they became widely used due to their ability to produce high temperatures and long-term heat.

How does a biomass boiler work?

Biomass boilers are a great way to reduce your carbon footprint and save on energy costs. But how does a biomass boiler work? 

A biomass boiler is a device that converts organic material into heat or electricity. This type of renewable energy source uses wood chips, logs, plant waste, and agricultural residues to generate power.

The fuel is burned in a furnace which produces hot gases that are used to heat water within the boiler itself. This heated water then flows through pipes where it can be used for various purposes such as heating buildings or generating hot water for showers and washing machines.

How much does a biomass boiler cost and what is its payback time?

Biomass boilers are an increasingly popular energy solution for businesses in the United Kingdom. They offer a renewable, cost-efficient way to generate heat and power your establishment’s operations. But how much does a biomass boiler actually cost, and what’s the expected payback time?


A biomass boiler can range in price from as little as £90,000 to more than several million pounds depending on capacity and features. Generally speaking, the greater the output capacity of the boiler, the higher its cost will be. Additionally, factors such as installation fees or maintenance contracts add to overall expenses associated with operating a biomass boiler system.


Generally speaking payback time is from three to five years depending of current energy market situation.

What is industrial biomass boiler efficiency on average?

It is important to take fuel costs into account in boiler economy calculations. A biomass boiler that is strongly built can use low-quality fuel.

When using low-quality fuel, you have to remember the fuel’s affordability.
In this case, the operating costs of the biomass boiler are affordable.

Very often, a weak biomass supply system causes the need to use high-quality and expensive fuel.

For this reason, our company develops solutions so that it is possible to use low-quality biofuel that is affordable. Often this biofuel is local, which reduces the carbon footprint even more.
