Hello

Hi I am Phil Smith-Lawrence and I would just like to introduce myself and my company. We provide a turnkey solution for the sale and installation of commercial biomass boilers. We also provide a full project management service including the claiming of the RHI on behalf of the client.
We can supply boilers from 11kW to 1000kW.
Most of our boilers are built into 2 x 20ft or one 40ft container known as Econ Centres and are fully automated including fuel supply monitoring.

I am sure you all know about the RHi but here are some basic figures;
A 190kW install costs circa £99k and the RHI payments over 20 years are £500k +.So a good investment for care/nursing homes, golf clubs and hotels.BTW, we pay a healthy commission for introductions.

Thanks.

Welcome along

On the smaller side, whats the numbers (£££) on your 11kw boiler.

Hello Simon G,

The 11kW has been discontinued and is now replaced by a 14kW. A 14kw pellet boiler with, pump, ESBE valve, safety module, 500 litre
accumulator with temp gauges and 50 litre expansion vessel comes in at
£6680 + VAT

I hope that helps.
Thanks.

What is the annual rhi payments on the 14kw boiler

Not a straight forward exercise given that i have very little detail but here are some figures based on assumptions;

At 3,500 hours a 14kw boiler is going to produce 49,000kWh running at full
power

This equates to £2170 in RHI. This is because most of the payment is in the
tier 2 tariff of 2.1p

I would never suggest to run a smaller domestic boiler for this amount of
hours in a year. They are much more delicate than the larger systems.

If the requirement is 49,000 kWh then I would suggest a boiler of 30kW
output. Approx 1633 hours of use. This would generate £3473 in RHI
payments. This is because much more of the operation hours is in the Tier 1
payment of 8.3p.

Hope that helps.

These are the commercial RHI rates, right?

Yes the RHI is only available for commercial installs at the moment.

Just checking you didn't know more than me on that front

Lol, I like it. October this year is the targeted date for the RHI to be introduced into the domestic marketplace.

Really? I'm pretty sure it was put back to 2013 (summer I think) but happy to be proven wrong!

Just a confirmation of the tariff would be a god send, quite hard selling a product without any solid information, payback period etc.

I think all of DECC's concentration is on the green deal at the moment hence RHI being on the back burner.

All interesting info. Whats the cost of the 30kw set up? Thanks.

It depends on where the boiler will be installed as that will add to the overall figure.If you have any further information then I will be able to give you more definitive costings.
