Objetivo
The Campaign for take off (CTO) has established the goal of implementing 2000 MWth of wood heating systems in large buildings and blocks. The BIOHEAT project should make a major contribution to the achievement of this goal. It will create interest in wood heating, disseminate information and provide practical support for project developers, consultants and energy service companies in the start-up phase of biomass projects. Know-how transfer from partners with extensive experiences to partners, that are newly engaged in this field will be facilitated by the project to prevent diffusion failures due to lack of experiences. The project will also address local, national and EU policy makers and suggest options to eliminate barriers for wood heating in this sector, that are identified in the course of the project.
Strategic approach:
The market segment of large buildings has been chosen, as the economic preconditions for heating with wood fuels are particularly good in this sector. Also, the development of this niche can pave the way for the diffusion of modern technologies for domestic heating with biomass, as it will lead to the establishment of fuel supply structures and qualified services that can also support the domestic heating sector. It will also lead to an enhanced public perception of wood heating as a modern, comfortable and both economically and environmentally sound option.
Work programme:
The project is organised in four phases. In the first phase relevant actors will be identified and consulted: interest-organisations of developers, planners and energy service companies as well as associations of communities and selected environmental NGOs will be interviewed. The interviews should clarify the situation of the sector and the way innovations are communicated. The interest organisations should be asked to cooperate in information dissemination. Interviews will also be conducted with companies and communities to get a clear picture of the perceived barriers and the information needed to engage in wood heating.
The second phase of the project is dedicated to defining information contents and producing information materials. Preparatory work is organised in such a way, that designated members in the consortium with extensive biomass experiences will prepare basic materials that are subsequently translated and adapted by the other partners. Three brochures will be produced, that cover the needs of the three key actor groups: developers, policy makers in communities and consultants and heat service companies. A course for consultants and energy service companies will be developed and field trips to successful projects will be prepared.
The third phase of the project is dedicated to information dissemination. Activities will include series of publications, the targeted distribution of the brochures and presentations for policy makers.
Phase 4 is dedicated to the support of actors that want to realise projects. Seminars will provide basic know how to prevent project failures, field trips will provide additional motivation and a deeper insight in the conditions for successful projects. Participants in the consortium will offer a telephone hot line to answer questions of developers and to make preliminary calculations of project economics based on a common model.
Expected results:
The result of the project should be a significantly enhanced awareness about the option among relevant professional groups in the participating European countries and a considerable number of projects that are actually realised. The project is intended to stimulate 10 - 20 projects per country during its course. Assuming diffusion rates that have been achieved by other renewable energy technologies, this could lead to the achievement of the CTO goal of 2000MW in this sector within 4-5 years.
