although for a pub a more traditional waterwheel might be more public friendly

Incorporate a wheen of solar panels and a feel-good windmill to blag the green grants.

er, I think not!!! Totally no chance on dartmoor (and I agree with that); turbines and shiny panels are absolutely non-starters under the DNPA.

 

You could have a reliable German 45 kwe CHP system but it is not cheap at 176,000 euro's. The main downside with the system is the need for 15% MC woodchip. Not a problem for me but finding 15% MC on Dartmoor could be a problem as the UK is not geared up for quality low MC woodchip unlike Germany.

 

Sure; sounds good but what you say about mc of chip rings true - there is a woodfuel cooperative in the area - well known for producing crap chip.

 

I can install a 3.0MW wind turbine for you, retail is roughly £2Million but you would need to sort out your own infrastructure!

 

as above; dnpa would be :lol: I don't think so matey boy!

 

Anything, big, bright, shiny, above the parepet etc is a no no on the moor; simply not allowed.

 

Turns out a grid connection might be best; £90k and is billed over time; that's 3 years gas oil over 5 years I think...

Aagh yes, log customer of mine who is a biomass installer said about the gasification side of it - seems a bit secondary to me; always taught to go for primary energy i.e. gas before elec...

There are loads of companies that can do grid connection. Power company rates are horrendous !

This is my local pub on the moor; no mains. Needs to reduce bills!!! Suggestions!!!

 

Which pub TCD?

Herz, a big apparently reputable Austrian manufacturer now do a woodchip boiler install that will work with chip up (or is that down?) to 40% m/c.

Very recently released after years of development (apparently)

Came across it yesterday, while researching for a replacment logwood/gasifying domestic boiler.

I can only presume using the low temp otherwise wasted flue gas heat to pre-dry the incoming chip, again I can only presume they continuiously (or as often as necessary) blow cold air through the stock pile to prevent composting.

I guessed it might be but not really "local" for anyone
