These facilities may store biomass for a period of time as well as potentially undertaking minor processing such as sorting, chipping, hogging, screening, and drying. The goal is to contribute to a more resilient, lower cost, and higher volume wood energy market in New Zealand. Through co-funding, EECA aims to demonstrate the operational and commercial advantages of these facilities to unlock future private investments. EECA is looking for organisations with projects ready to be established by 30 June 2027 and can demonstrate the ability to successfully commission and operate a facility. EECA grant co-funding will be no more than 30% of the total eligible capital costs and a limit of $1M for each project.
