BioXL

We are working on an exciting new EU project to support pilot wood energy projects in the West of Ireland. The aims of the project are to:

• Establish sustainable local loops of wood energy supply and demand.
• Develop local wood fuel supply from forestry.
• Offer best practice approaches to support industry development.
• Help build critical mass and scale in the wood energy sector of the region.
• Support investment plans and help secure project finance.

A professional Energy Audit will save you money. We can benchmark and monitor your building's performance, survey all energy consuming equipment on-site and provide independent advice on procurement and technology. We have yet to encounter a situation where substantial savings cant be identified. Our focus is on zero-cost savings and we will not benefit from selling you equipment.
BioXL have audited several residential apartment blocks and achieved savings of 25% with minimal capital spend. Contact us for a site visit and quotation with no obligation.

BioXL together with Tipperary Institute and Waterford Institute of Technology appraised the training and education needs of the Irish Bioenergy industry. This involved extensive international research on bioenergy training programmes and consultation with Irish actors to establish future training and education priorities for the industry. Job creation prospects in the bioenergy industry were considered as a yard-stick of training requirements.

Based on conservative scenarios used in the Study, 300 Full-Time Equivalent jobs (FTEs) could be sustained in the construction and installation of
bioenergy technologies to 2020. Almost 1,200 FTEs could be employed in the operation and maintenance of bioenergy projects by 2010, increasing to 2,000 by 2020.
