About Woodco Woodco Renewable Energy, Ireland’s premier biomass heating company has been manufacturing biomass boilers for almost 20 years.
The company has supplied boilers all over Ireland, the UK, Europe, Canada, US and New Zealand. Woodco is passionate about displacing fossil fuel with low carbon heating technologies.
Sustainable biomass is an established renewable fuel resource that can provide heat cheaper than most fossil fuels. It is most commonly available as wood chips or wood pellets.
Biomass originates from organic material from forestry and agriculture (such as trees and plants), from wastes and residues of biological origin, and from biodegradable fractions of waste. Common sources of biomass in Ireland are pulpwood, brash and sawdust.
Sustainable biomass must meet sustainability criteria to ensure that it saves large amounts of greenhouse gas emissions when compared alongside fossil fuel alternatives, while also avoiding negative impacts on land use, food security, water resources, biodiversity and livelihoods.
Woodco offer Energy Supply Contracts (ESCO’s) to Businesses!
Woodco can install your potential biomass heating system with no capital investment and provide you an annual saving on your heating overheads – typically 20-30%. These are called ESCO’s (Energy Supply Contracts).
Woodco looks after all the design and installation of the system, Support Scheme for Renewable Heat (SSRH) application, full boiler installation, commissioning, and project sign off. Woodco will operate and will maintain the system on an ongoing basis (typically 15 years).
The benefits include:
- Fuel delivery and maintenance of the biomass system.
- Reduction in heating costs.
- Highly Efficient (>93%) heating system.
- Carbon Reduction for your business.
- Full ownership of the biomass system upon completion of the ESCO contract.

About the Project
Woodco supplied a 500kW Wood Chip Boiler as part of an ESCO agreement. This means The Watershed pays for the heat it uses at an agreed price as part of a 15-year ESCO agreement and Woodco owns and maintains the boiler. The renewable heat price is benchmarked against current gas prices and is cheaper than gas. The Watershed had no capital outlay. The wood chip is sourced locally and delivery is every 2 weeks. The Watershed requires 500 tonnes of wood chip per annum. This results in savings of 300 tonnes of CO2 per annum.
