註釋

This report is intended to assist Aboriginal communities, particularly in remote areas, to examine whether fuelling small heating systems with wood biomass is a viable option. It provides the basis for communities to begin to design and explore wood chip supply operations which suit their individual needs. The report defines biomass energy and describes some of the benefits of biomass energy heating systems, as well as some of the challenges of supplying wood chips in remote communities. Two wood chip supply options are examined: using conventional forest machines such as skidders, dump trucks, and wood chippers; and using conventional agricultural machines, such as tractors, with forestry attachments. Information on these options is presented with respect to planning & selecting a wood chip supply system, advantages, limitations, and estimated costs. Chipping of wood and the operation of wood chippers are also described. Includes glossary.
