The RETScreen® International Biomass Heating Project Model (Version 2000) can be used world-wide to easily evaluate the energy production (or savings), life-cycle costs and greenhouse gas emissions reduction for biomass and/or waste heat recovery (WHR) heating projects, ranging in size from large scale developments for clusters of buildings to individual building applications. The model can be used to evaluate three basic heating systems using: waste heat recovery; biomass; and biomass and waste heat recovery combined. It also allows for a "peak load heating system" to be included (e.g. oil-fired boiler). The model is designed to analyse a wide range of systems with or without district heating.

The RETScreen® International Biomass Heating Project Model (Version 2000) can be downloaded free of charge from the Natural Resources Canada website (see above).
