Biomass Busted? Why Wood-Fired Power Is Catching Heat in Vermont
Is biomass the solution to Vermont’s energy problems or the next big threat to our health and environment? Virtually every candidate in the recent governor’s race — including Republican Brian Dubie — championed the idea of burning wood for heat and electricity as a clean and renewable alternative to fossil fuels. Plus, biomass can provide crucial base-load electric power — something neither …
Why is it so important to “believe”?
Why is it so important for the believers to force everyone to believe as they do?
It’s like they believe if you don’t accept their dogma, then you’re pro-pollution.
I know no one who thinks it’s acceptable to pollute even though most people don’t accept the cult of the warmers.
It is possible to reduce over 50% of ghg’s now produced in America without making common citizens criminals. Nuclear power would cut co2 emissions in half. Then we could convert 130 million homes to have electric heat and hot water instead of oil or gas. And electric cars would be 100% free from fossil fuels.
Don’t you think that believers just push their dogma just so they can control what light bulb you use, what car you drive, how fast you drive and where you should be able to drive? Don’t they just want to be able to control how warm or cool your home should be?
Do you think that believers just want you to submit to what they think is best for you?
Fear! it is their Revelations!

call and get a quote from a hvac contractor for a new boiler in both LP and electric and have them do an annual energy consumption (cost) it is a really easy to do calculation that can be accomplished with most new heat load software, or a pencil with a few minutes and known prices for the fuels.
estimates are free! ask questions and get answers dont feel bad about shopping around with different contractors and getting the best value for your buck—after all you are paying for the bills and thats what the contractor is in business for

Get an hvac tech to your home he will need to calucluate what kw of heat you will need. you will also need your service checked out to see if you have enough power left to run electric heat. without a 220v service your amperage will be more on 110v heaters therefore costing you more money in electric. it can be done but its most likely gonna cost you some money. If you have a central a/c unit sometime you can just have a duct heater installed depending on your duct configuration. Get a quallified person to lay out all the cost. Then you can decide how much better off you will be,

It costs more to use electricity for heat.

You described what sounds like a propane gas water boiler with baseboard radiation. I’m unsure if you have fin tube or cast radiators.
Yes propane can be costly, however it is much cheaper than converting to an all electric home (furnace, water heater, etc)
Perhaps you should have your boiler serviced and checked by a qualified HVAC technician that can determine if adjustments are necessary to cut down on the fuel consumption.
Have you ever checked to see how much (if any) insulation htere is in hte walls and ceiling? How about windows, doors, storms etc. What have you done to minimize heat loss.??
