Fuel costs
N.B. These prices are intended for guidance only. All prices are prone to significant variation with geographical region, order quantities, overall contract size and duration, delivery distance and time, etc. Woodfuels in particular are available at prices both significantly above and below those quoted, and bulk prices will be subject to a minimum delivery size of perhaps 3-5 tonnes. Wood pellets bought in bags will be significantly more expensive than those bought in bulk.

The market for woodfuels is currently relatively immature which, combined with its unsuitability for long distance transport, supports considerable variation in prices from place to place. Figures have been chosen to represent the mean price achievable across the UK for a single bulk order of five tonnes of wood pellets or ten tonnes of woodfuel quality chips. In the case of the latter however, the prices we see around the country and from different suppliers can vary by a factor of two or more, with £40 - £80 a typical range, but figures both above and below this are not uncommon. For some producers, prices may be subsidized by other activities.
