With the fluctuating price of fossil fuels, wood burning has undergone a renaissance in recent years. The key advantages of burning wood as a fuel are:
- Carbon neutral - wood from properly managed sources release no more carbon into the atmosphere than if the wood were left to rot. Within a stove the pollutants released are reduced due to the fact that the wood is burned much hotter than in an open fire. This reduces the release of particulate carbon.
- The UK produces large quantity of firewood, wood-pellets and other wood based fuels, meaning transport costs (both economic and environmental) are reduced.
- Price per kW - for wood is less even than gas. You may find issue with having to store your wood, particularly if you intend to use wood burning as your primary source of heat throughout the winter.
