Additional info
Residue2Heat’s main outcome was the development of stand-alone, small-scale residential boilers (between 20 kWth and 60 kWth) fuelled by FPBO. Additional achievements include the production of high-quality FPBO from high-ash-biomass residues, atomisation and combustion of FPBO, design and manufacturing of modified burner components and a logistics plan for storage and handling.
Sustainability chain evaluation of various FPBO types (based on feedstock) showed emission savings of 80 % to 94 %, meeting greenhouse gas emission saving requirements of 60 % and 70 % of the Renewable Energy Directive (RED) and RED2, respectively.

Assessment
This section contains a brief assessment of the FEFTS described.
There are 3 basic categories: General, Environmental and Socioeconomic assessment.
The purpose of this assessment is to give a quick overview to the potential FEFTS user of its application benefits.
For each question, the Likert scale is used with the following possible answers:
Strongly disagree, Disagree, Neither agree nor disagree (Neutral)/non applicable, Agree, Strongly agree
General
This FEFTS contributes to improve the energy profiles of farming systems:Environmental
The application of this FEFTS directly reduces fossil energy use, in terms of:- Buildings heat use
Socioeconomic
The application of this FEFTS contributes to cost reductions of farming systems:Keep in mind that this assessment is subjective, based on publicly available information.
All registered users are asked to evaluate each FEFTS and when an adequate number of reviews is gathered the results depicted here are updated. Each review is screened in order to avoid malicious practices.
FEFTS providers who do not agree with the assessment results, can send their inquiry to info@agrofossilfree.eu and a direct action based on their petition will be taken.
