Biomass Boilers & Heating

Biomass burns organic material, wood chips, pellets, agricultural residues, to produce heat. As a renewable it occupies a contested middle ground: low-carbon in principle, but only under the right conditions, and its "renewable" label has to be examined rather than assumed. This lesson covers how biomass heating works, the conditional carbon argument, the air-quality drawback, where it fits, and how it compares with heat pumps.
