Liquid biofuel boiler proves green credentials for city centre development

A 100% liquid biofuel boiler from Hamworthy proved to be the greenest heating option for a mixed use development in Hoxton, East London.

Hamworthy’s Ensbury LT 260 steel boiler using B100 biodiesel was specified by M&E consultants Fox Curtis Murray to provide the space heating for this development consisting of 16 flats and a commercial unit.

Biodiesel is a cleaner fuel than biomass because there is no grit or other particular matter in the flue gasses plus the storage space required is much less with liquid biofuel – ideal for a city centre location where storage is limited and space is at a premium.
