Wood Chip Drying Facility Project Details
Tree (3) LASCO LA250’s wood chip warm air furnaces @ TTC Energy, Windsor MA
3 drying bays: 70′ x 25′ each
TTC Energy provides low-cost, renewable wood heating fuel to the Western Massachusetts region. Sourced from the region’s abundant supply of waste wood, TTC Energy screens and dries wood chips to offer its customers a renewable, locally sourced, and energy dense substitute for fossil fuels while supporting forest practices necessary to maintaining the vibrancy of New England forests.
TTC Energy’s product is advanced wood chip fuel. Wood chips are simply pieces of wood, identical to cord wood in all ways other than the shape and size of the pieces. We create advanced wood chip fuel at our facility by putting chips through a screening and drying process. Screening narrows the size distribution of the chips, making them more uniform in shape. Drying removes moisture from the chips, resulting in a more efficient, energy-dense form of wood fuel, called advanced wood chip fuel.
TTC Energy produces and sells Alternative Energy Portfolio Standard (APS) compliant dry chip fuel. With 4,000 square feet of operating capacity, TTC Energy converts locally sourced green chips into dried, ready-to-use fuel and delivers them to customers. Provided that customers have installed the latest generation of wood chip heating systems, they are eligible for renewable energy credits once they start using TTC Energy’s product. In a nutshell, TTC Energy’s dry wood chip fuel unlocks the energy credits accorded to adopters of modern wood heat.

Heizomat AK200 miscanthus boiler in Urbana IL
Heizomat AK200 biomass boiler
2,000 Gallon Thermal Storage
Fuel: Miscanthus or Elephant grass
Starting in March 2017, homegrown perennial grasses will replace propane as the primary heat source for the Illinois.
Energy Farm’s main research greenhouse. A state-of-the-art Heizomat biomass boiler produced in Germany will turn biomass into hot water distributed across the research complex as the primary energy source for heating.
On average, the main greenhouse at the Energy Farm consumes 8,000 gallons of propane per heating season. Switching to biomass heating enables the Energy Farm to reduce its annual carbon release by ~60 tons just from replacing propane. In addition, the biomass grown in the summer sequesters carbon below ground. Plans for life cycle analysis (LCA) once the system is operational will allow for a detailed carbon budget of the farm to fuel model.
