 The
primary environmental benefit of burning wood pellets is it does not
contribute to climate changes through emissions of carbon dioxide
or other greenhouse gases. Since our forest resources are managed
in a renewable manner and the growth of these trees fixate the same
amount of carbon as are emitted by the burning of pellets or decomposition
of wood in nature, the net emission of carbon-dioxide is practically
zero. Other emissions from wood pellets are low in relation to coal,
oil and other fossil fuels. Emissions of nitrogen oxides are similar
to fossil fuels, however emissions of sulfur dioxides are considerably
lower.
- Reduces dependance on coal, oil and other fossil fuels.
- Pellet fuel has been proven to provide the cleanest burn or any
solid fuel.
- Pellet fuel is a renewable resource.
- Nothing is taken from the environment to produce pellets.
- Allergy free, no dust and debris that can contaminate the air.
- Easy to handle, even if living alone.
- Convenient, clean bags are compact enough to store an entire season
of fuel, about one third the space of cord wood.
- Automatic feed systems mean you only have to fill the hopper every
few days.
- Pellet appliances may be installed with zero or minimum clearance.
- Pellet fuel is not subject to world price variations like imported
oil.
