DECC's Community Biomass Guidance - a resource for communities developing woodfuel projects

 

Lantern worked with DECC and the Forestry Commission to produce an online resource for communities wishing to develop local biomass projects and woodfuel supply chains.

 

This work forms an integral part of the governments Community Energy Strategy and offers advice and information for groups on how to develop their own woodfuel supply chains as part of local wood heat projects. The guidance covers all the major aspects of woodfuel supply chain development, including assessing the resource,  extracting the material, processing and supplying to a heat project.

 

The guidance is now live after being launched  by Baroness Verma at the Community Heat Conference  in March 2015. You can access the full guidance here .
