About Rea Wood Heat Forum

The REA (Renewable Energy Association) has been representing the biomass heat sector since 2001. The REA members forum for biomass heat is called the ‘Wood Heat Forum’ and is governed by a member Steering Committee. The Wood Heat Forum brings together wood fuel suppliers, biomass boiler and stove manufacturers, installers and distributors, energy companies and developers. It also benefits from members of the wider REA. Over the years, we have worked hard on behalf of industry to tackle many issues, including helping to design the RHI and get it established for industry, pushing for standards within the industry, ensuring biomass was included on the energy savings material list for zero-rated VAT, and ensuring biomass was supported on the Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS). Our most recent workstreams focus on air quality and sustainability. We are developing evidence-backed materials to help dispel myths and combat the negative press industry often faces in these areas. Our briefings will be shared with government and will highlight how modern biomass boilers are a sophisticated, low emission sustainable heat source, which can play a valuable role in decarbonising the heat sector. We also host an annual Wood Heat Conference, which brings together many stakeholders from across the wood heat industry to discuss the most pressing issues facing our sector and hear about the latest innovations. This event is open to members and non-members of REA – we hope to see you there! For information about joining the Wood Heat Forum please contact heat@r-e-a.net
