In Estella, the studies suggest that the boiler be located at the beginning of La Rúa street, in the pilgrims' hostel, and from there supply the Carlism museum, the Fray Diego culture house, the future tourist office and the Gustavo museum. of Maeztu.
The current consumption of these buildings has an annual heating expense of 34.000 euros. With the change to biomass it would be in 15.000, reducing more than one 50%. In addition, you would only have to pay for the maintenance of one boiler instead of the current five.
In Lodosa, the aim is to create a biomass district heating network that supplies the school, the sports center, the swimming pools, the residence and the new health center. In this case the savings would still be greater,the City would go from paying 75.000 euros to 18.000.
These two projects represent a very important push for the splinter transformation center that is being studied in Merindad. This project consists in the fact that the localities of the Merindad are self-sufficient in biomass, using the existing resources in the area and that are calculated in 35.085 tons of dry matter per year.
