A leading Cornish energy efficiency expert has launched the search for three Cornish businesses keen to tap into the benefits of Biomass Boilers.

Happy Energy – based at Pool Innovation Centre – wants to hear from high energy using agricultural businesses in the county - that are off the main gas network and that currently spend £15,000 annually on their heating bills and are interested in the possibility of receiving a free biomass boiler.

“Apart from a few ground breaking companies (mostly in the tourism sector), businesses in Cornwall have been relatively slow to adopt the benefits of Biomass so we are looking for two or three who we can work with to demonstrate just what can be achieved and the benefits that biomass brings,” said Happy Energy CEO Adrian Wright.

“For businesses off the mains gas network, energy is an expensive commodity and biomass gives high energy using businesses the opportunity to benefit from a brand new, highly efficient heating system which is not only much more environmentally friendly but by using wood pellets are less likely to be affected in the future from fluctuating oil prices, or have to rely on often more expensive LPG or electricity,” Adrian added.

In addition to installing the Biomass system, businesses receiving the free Biomass Boiler will also have the system fully maintained by the Happy Energy team for the next 20 years.

“With a lot of businesses in Cornwall off the mains gas network there are major benefits to Biomass – including generous Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) payments from the Government for businesses buying a system. We will be taking a full commercial biomass system to house on our stand at the Royal Cornwall Show in June to guide visitors through the benefits of Biomass so businesses can see for themselves what the system is and how it works,” added Adrian.
