[QUOTE="Dalmatian90, post: 3233150, member: 28208"] Real quick math, without considering the losses involved as we go from potential energy in wood --> thermal --> mechanical --> electrical energy, or the potential to run more efficiently by varying fuel input / power output with computerized controls... 20kW = 68,000 BTUs/hr 1 Cord White Oak = 27M BTUs 16 Days per cord of Oak 22 Cords per year [/QUOTE]
