Barriers: B1-Barriers to P2 B1 - Insufficient capital to install new source reduction equipment or implement new source reduction activities/initiat
|
Barriers to P2: B1 - Insufficient capital to install new source reduction equipment or implement new source reduction activities/initiat - Obtaining a biomass boiler would cost around 1.2 million, and we would need to build an underground storage facility for wood chips. We do not own our land, so this would be a challenge. We are investigating purchasing this property. We investigated propane boiler conversion as well, which was quoted for around $300,000, but our two boilers are from the 60's and 70's, so a retrofit would not be cost effective. When we need to purchase new boilers, we will evaluate the fuel source once again. |

Barriers: B1-Barriers to P2 B1 - Insufficient capital to install new source reduction equipment or implement new source reduction activities/initiat
|
Barriers to P2: B1 - Insufficient capital to install new source reduction equipment or implement new source reduction activities/initiat - In 2024 we are currently working with Energy Vermont to investigate switching to biomass or propane fuel. We are still awaiting their report. The cost of switching fuel is a large barrier for us, and our plant is located on land we do not own, so adding additional facilities may be an issue. |
