59. The EU’s climate change policies support biomass as a renewable source of energy64. The Renewable Energy Directive required in 2009 that the EU meets at least 20 % of its total energy needs with renewables by 2020. EU funding for biomass projects has since more than doubled. In our Special Report No 5/2018 on renewable energy for sustainable rural development, we reported that combustion of wood biomass can also lead to higher emissions of certain harmful air pollutants. The EEA has identified similar issues.
60. The use of inefficient solid-fuel boilers or heaters exacerbates the problem of air pollution from local heating. The EU has set standards to improve the efficiency of such devices (the EcodesignDirective68 with its implementing regulations), but such standards will only come into force for new devices in 2022.

Banning the most-polluting fuels for domestic wood burners would reduce emissions but cost businesses £2.6m per year, according to a draft government impact assessment. To help meet legal emission reduction commitments under the 2002 EU National Emission Ceilings Directive, a two-month consultation has been launched in London today highlighting five key areas of action needed on wood-burners.
About 38% of UK particulate matter emissions come from burning wood and coal in domestic open fires and solid fuel stoves. This compares with industrial combustion (16%) and road transport (12%), the government said.
The government wants to ban the sale of traditional house coal (bituminous coal) first announced in its draft clean air strategy published in May and regulate the sale of wet wood.
By limiting the sales of wood sold in smaller sizes of packaging to dry wood only, the number of consumers unwittingly burning greener woods that creates a lot of smoke when burned will drop.
However, wood pellets are dry enough not to be affected and so are not included as part of the government’s consultation.
The government is also consulting on the need for an appropriate test standard for new solid fuels entering the market and a reduction in sulphur content. The government wants all manufactured solid fuels nationwide to only have a 2% sulphur content limit, a measure which would mirror the solid fuel requirements for household burning in smoke control areas currently.
Other policy announcements include a move to ensure "only the cleanest stoves" will be available for sale by 2022.

Domestic heating has solutions!
1/ Equipment: Replacing the existing stock
2/ Fuel: Using quality of fuels (especially moisture content)
3/ Installation: Ensuring excellent installation of the appliance
4/ Operation: Using properly the appliance
