Enerpower have installed a 550Kw Gilles Biomass Boiler System at Standish Sawmills in Co. Offaly. Standish Sawmills were looking for a boiler that gave them the ability to power dry kilns at their Co. Offaly based factory.
Standish Sawmills is one of Ireland’s leading producers of timber products. Owners Tom and John Standish are the fourth generation of Standish family operating a sawmill business at Leap Castle, Co. Offaly which is located between Birr & Roscrea. The original sawmill here was steam powered, but today Standish Sawmills have invested in the leading edge technology.
Standish Sawmills provide design and manufacturing service offering an extensive range of quality timber products for the home and export markets. According to the US Department of Agriculture, depending upon equipment used, the efficiency level of any wood operation may require one and one-half to four times the energy needed to evaporate water. Standish Sawmills approached Enerpower to assist with their specific requirements and needs.
