The new identity of Progetto Fuoco, the leading event for the sector, is born A new identity for Progetto Fuoco: an energy that is not just heat, but also technology, innovation, and momentum toward the future. The flame becomes the symbol of a sector in evolution and of a more contemporary, recognizable, and dynamic identity, designed […]
The biomass sector is rapidly evolving to address the challenges of energy transition and decarbonization. Even in 2025, wood energy will continue to play a key role in the journey towards a sustainable future. Now more than ever, the forest-wood-energy supply chain asserts the importance of its contribution to the country’s energy security, bringing together […]
The 14th edition of Progetto Fuoco concluded with great success, attracting 45,000 professional operators, 30% of whom came from around the world. These figures provide significant insights into the growing interest of the public and industry professionals, highlighting an increasingly broad and diverse participation. Business, environmental sustainability, energy savings, incentive systems, design, innovation, and technology […]
In recent years, the European pellet market has faced significant challenges, but 2024 marked a decisive turning point with a stabilisation that brought tangible benefits for both consumers and the industry. Overcoming the imbalances of previous years has allowed consumer prices to fall, making pellets an even more affordable home heating option than traditional fossil […]
Woody biomass remains one of the most promising solutions for domestic heating in Europe. According to a recent report by the European Commission, wood accounted for 66% of the total biomass used in member countries in 2023. This figure underlines the growing importance of wood as a renewable and sustainable energy source, capable of meeting […]
Pellets are an environmentally friendly and convenient solution for home heating due to their high heat output and low ash production. However, not all pellets are the same, and choosing a quality product can make all the difference in terms of efficiency and safety. Let’s see together how to recognise quality pellets through some key […]
With the arrival of cold weather, the fireplace once again takes centre stage in domestic evenings, creating a warm and cosy atmosphere. However, to fully enjoy the benefits of a crackling fire, it is essential to keep the fireplace clean and in perfect condition. Regular cleaning not only ensures a cosy home environment, but also […]
In Italy, sustainable forest management and biomass production are closely linked to reforestation projects, which aim to create a balance between forest exploitation and the regeneration of natural resources. Organisations such as Aiel, Mosaico Verde, Rete Clima and Boschi E.ON are at the forefront of these efforts, ensuring that forests, the source of wood and […]
Black roasted pellet technology marks a revolution in the production of biomass for stoves and boilers. Through a process called torrefaction, wood waste and agricultural residues are transformed in a low-oxygen, high-temperature environment (200 °C – 300 °C). This process not only increases the energy density of pellets, but also improves their water resistance, making […]
Typically, a pellet stove has an average lifespan of between 10 and 15 years, depending on the quality of the product and how well it is maintained. In fact, the longevity of the stove depends on the care with which it is maintained and the use of quality replacement parts. However, even the best pellet […]
