Significant time and resources are often spent pursuing wood energy projects that are not suitable or appropriate for the situation. To assist communities and partners in rapidly exploring and initially evaluating a variety of options, we developed the Community Biomass Handbook and Wood Energy Financial App (woodenergy.umn.edu). The Handbook is a multimedia library that showcases successful wood energy projects from around the country using text, photos, video interviews, diagrams, and – most importantly – an interactive financial app to estimate fuel cost savings, capital investment, and payback. Checklists for assessing opportunities, engaging communities and partners, and moving project proposals forward are included.
