SNZ PAS 5311:2021 Biomass boilers for small and medium heat loads(external link)
The objective of this publicly available specification (PAS) is to provide best practice guidance to support the adoption of low-emission biomass boiler systems in commercial, institutional, and industrial heat applications. This PAS provides advice and information on biomass boiler systems for small to medium heat loads (50 kW to 2 MW) providing hot water below 100°C. Within this document, a biomass boiler system is one fuelled by wood chip, wood briquettes, wood pellets, or other biomass.
This PAS includes both technical and non-technical guidance on: evaluating heat demand and energy efficiency; generic site requirements; greenhouse gas and local particulate emissions; fuel quality, supply, reception, storage, and handling; operation and maintenance; system efficiency; seasonal efficiency; regulatory and non-regulatory health and safety aspects; and consenting
