Cord Wood Boilers: Success Stories in Commercial Applications

This discussion will provide four brief case studies of successful renewable energy systems -- the installation of cord wood boilers -- at Fort Faith, YMCA Storer Camp, Michigan Technological University's Ford Forestry Center, and Harvard Forest. Each presentation will provide an overview of the facility, images of the installation, a description of the costs and savings associated with the project, and details about owner feedback, lessons learned, and operating issues.

The event will close with a Q&A session featuring representatives from all four facilities, as well as consultants experienced with wood energy systems. This session will offer an opportunity for potential project owners to ask questions of both experienced project owners and biomass consultants regarding project implementation, costs, design, operations, and other considerations.
