In order to achieve the climate targets in each country, it becomes essential to switch to heating with renewable engergies. Environmentally friendly biomass heating systems can contribute to this.
Environmentally friendly heating with biomass heating systems
Wood – whether in the form of pellets, wood chips or logs – is a 100% regional fuel, created as a waste product from the sawmill industry or during wood processing.
The argument that ‘heating with wood‘ is responsible for deforestation can be easily debunked. In just one minute, the forest area in Europe grows by the size of a soccer field. In addition, the constantly growing demand for biomass means that the important afforestation can be accomplished cost-covering. This results in stable, valuable and species-rich forest stands and creates new opportunities for many forest owners.
8 tons of CO₂ is saved with a new pellet heating system compared to three diesel vehicles. WWhen burning wood, only as much CO2 (2 tiefgestellt) is released as the tree previously absorbed during its growth. Therefore, heating with biomass can confidently be called CO₂-neutral.
Modern biomass heating systems with the highest efficiencies use less than half of the fuel of old heating systems. Furthermore, fine dust emissions can be reduced by more than 90 %.
