The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide funding to the Huslia Tribal Council (HTC) for the design, construction, and operation of a wood-fired district heating system in Huslia, Alaska that would serve the community Clinic, Washeteria, and the K-12 school. The system would include three biomass boilers with a total maximum output of 600,000 Btu/hour located in a new prefabricated steel building on a concrete slab adjacent to the Clinic and Washeteria, approximately 700 linear feet of insulated heat distribution piping, and a fenced wood yard with covered fuelwood storage.
