JPS Energy can specify and install biomass systems for the generation of hot water and central heating. We supply high efficiency automatic wood chip and wood pellet boilers ranging from 10kW domestic boilers to 10,000kW industrial boilers that are suitable for almost any application.
Biomass is produced from organic materials, either directly from plants or indirectly from industrial, commercial, domestic or agricultural products. It is often called 'bioenergy' or 'biofuels'. It doesn't include fossil fuels, which have taken millions of years to be created.
Producing energy from biomass has both environmental and economic advantages.
Although biomass produces CO2 it only releases the same amount that it absorbed whilst growing making it a carbon neutral process. Furthermore, biomass can contribute to waste management by harnessing energy from products that are often disposed of at landfill sites.
advantages of biomass energy
Biomass energy is increasingly popular for a variety of reasons:
- It is widely available.
- It is a renewable resource, when it is sustainably used and managed.
- It results in less waste being sent to landfills. Burning unusable waste materials such as bark, construction wastes and tree clippings helps to reduce the pressure to expand local landfill sites while generating useful energy.
- It can help provide answers to the climate change issue. Using biomass energy does not increase atmospheric levels of carbon dioxide, a primary greenhouse gas, because of the cycles of regrowth for plants and trees. The use of biomass can also decrease the amount of methane, another greenhouse gas, which is emitted from decaying organic matter.
- It can be converted into several forms of energy. For example, wood can be processed and converted to gas. Landfills can produce methane, and corn, wheat and other materials can be used to manufacture liquid fuel ethanol.
JPS Energy supply, install and commission biomass heating systems which provide environmentally sound and cost effective warmth from carbon-neutral fuel.
