Eco Boiler at Eskdale
Last year this site reported a £24,000 grant made to Eskdale YH for a biomass boiler. Well, it’s now been bought, installed and even officially opened (well, switched on I suppose) by the local mayor, according to the Whitehaven News.
The boiler will run on wood chippings from the nearby Miterdale Forest, a renewable form of energy that should lower the hostel’s carbon footprint. So next time you turn your own footprints towards Eskdale in search of a little warmth, you’ll be doing your bit for the environment too!
