Tuesday, April 17 | 10:30 pm – Noon

Sourcing, handling and delivering biomass inside tight expense parameters often slows, stalls or kills otherwise sound biomass thermal projects. Typically biomass thermal facilities spend nearly 50% of their operating budget to purchase and deliver biomass to the boiler, and the sensitivity to this expense is real making the design of the procurement, handling and delivery system of the utmost financial importance. This session will provide field tested and proven strategies to get biomass onto your site, moving around your facility and into your boiler with great efficiency at the lowest possible cost.
