*NEW* - Miscanthus Pilot Demonstration Programme launched under the Renewable Energy RD&D Programme. The use of miscanthus as a fuel to date is very limited in Ireland, due to a number of issues including limited experience with its use as a boiler fuel. This Miscanthus Pilot Demonstration Programme is intended to support the establishment of a number of exemplar boiler sites, between 5 and 15 depending on the mix of size ranges and costs submitted. These exemplar sites will serve to provide important information on the supply chain logistics and suitability of miscanthus as a boiler fuel in an Irish context, as well as providing a solid basis for creating market confidence.
