Woodland Enterprise Centre

The Woodland Enterprise Centre is heated using woody biomass (wood chip) burnt in an automated 45kW Arimax boiler.

This Finnish system is housed outside the WEC building in a packaged container, integrating fuel store and boiler room, some 30m away from the building and connected by an underground heat-pipe.

35,000 kWh of heating is provided from small diameter roundwood sourced from the woodland managment operations (coppicing and thinnings) and chiped at the Centre, or supplied by contractors from nearly estates.
