LandEnergy - Wood Pellets
From Wood Pellets
We manufacture low carbon, premium quality wood pellets in our own production plant in Girvan, Scotland from virgin feedstock sourced from UK sustainable forests.
LandEnergy wood pellet fuel is:
LandEnergy wood pellet fuel is:
Premium quality
Derived from 100% virgin wood fibre with no additives ensuring that not only do the wood pellets burn beautifully, but also that the process is exceptionally clean.
Certified by the European Pellet Council with ENplus A1, the highest kitemark of quality in the industry. This means that the pellets are produced with a maximum energy content for greater burning efficiency and a minimum ash content which is better for your boiler or stove.

Efficient
High energy density.
Produced to a low moisture content (less than 10%) allowing for high combustion efficiencies.
In consistent supply, therefore reliably obtained.
Low Carbon
We are one of the only suppliers in the UK to have installed a Combined Heat and Power system into a wood pellet manufacturing plant. This uses locally sourced, low grade biomass for generating 100% of the electrical and heat energy required in the wood pellet production process, minimising the carbon emissions. Looking at the entire wood pellet production cycle (taking into account harvesting trees, transport, processing and burning the final product) Land Energy can demonstrate net savings of 90% of CO2 over oil or LPG.
Girvan Plant now open for Business
LandEnergy is delighted to announce that our latest wood pellet manufacturing plant, based in Girvan, Ayrshire is now open for business, creating over 30 jobs in the local area.
The plant incorporates a biomass Combined Heat and Power system that operates on locally sourced biomass fuel. This gives the lowest carbon emissions possible from the wood pellet production process. It has the capacity to produce 60,000 tons of wood pellets per annum using sustainable UK forestry and local sawmill co-product. This provides the potential to heat over 15,000 homes and give a 90% net carbon saving over burning heating oil.
Carbon Neutral
Carbon Neutral
Wood pellets are a carbon neutral, renewable biomass energy fuel – a key driver in the UK government’s plans to obtain 12% of all heat energy from a renewable source by 2020. The CO2 released when burning wood is re-absorbed by the amount of new trees that we plant.
Cost Effective
Wood pellet boiler equipment is cost effective to both install and operate and has significantly lower maintenance and capital expenduture costs compared to wood chip boilers. Wood pellet boilers will qualify for (amongst other grants) the UK government’s Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) launched in November 2011. This scheme has been designed to assist with the costs of installing a renewable energy system at a rate equivalent to an 8% return on investment.
For further information on the Renewable Heat Incentive.
Cost of heating with wood pellets is more cost effective than with fossil fuels aided by a reduced VAT rate of 5%.
High Density
High Density
Wood pellets have a high energy density and behave like liquid fuels. They can be poured or blown into a storage tank, don’t rot or degrade and boiler systems run automatically – just like an oil or gas boiler with no need to manually refill, stoke or shovel.
Due to their density, wood pellets allow for compact storage resulting in cheaper transport and storage costs.
Reliable
Wood pellets are manufactured from a widely available feedstock typically resulting in less price volatility than fossil fuels.
Well Established
Wood pellets are not a new technology. The use of wood pellets for domestic and commercial use has been well established in Europe for the last 25 years.
