About Balcas Energy:

Balcas Energy is part of Balcas, a natural leader in the world of timber.
We opened our first sawmill in 1962 and became one of the largest in the UK and Ireland. Our success came from our knowledge of and respect for timber. In our quest to make the most of every precious tree, Balcas Energy was born.

A co-product of our operations is pure sawdust. In 2004, using natural tree resin as a binder, our engineers pioneered the production of high quality wood pellets.

Originally known as brites, our high grade EN plus pellets have since grown to become 50% of our business. In 2016, Balcas purchased the UK’s largest wood pellet distribution company Forever Fuels and in 2019, with growth in mind, rebranded as Balcas Energy. Balcas Energy is proud to employ some of the most experienced biomass experts in the UK and Ireland and thanks to our advanced Combined Heat and Power plant, both of our production sites are self-sufficient.

Balcas Energy’s Invergordon and Enniskillen sites have production capacities of 120,000 tonnes and 60,000 tonnes of wood pellets respectively. Our operations are so efficient that we put surplus electricity back into the grid throughout the year.

Balcas employs over 380 people and an additional 300 are engaged in forest harvesting and haulage on our behalf.

Somewhat annoyed to find my price had gone up significantly but when I enquired about delivery to a more remote location in Wales, the price was the same as I paid before. Also miffed to find that the price for 96kg in northern Ireland is pretty close to my 75kg in wales.

We have had to increase our prices in line with changes to haulage costs. We don't know where you are located but if you drop us a note at: energy@balcas.com we will see if there is anything we can do for you. Thanks, Pauric

The Balcas product is the best I have used in our BioMass boiler ….. and I’ve tried a good few. Their online ordering site is easy to navigate and to use. Their delivery is first class. I would recommend them to anyone needing wood pellets for their boiler.

We buy around 5 tons of bulk pellets at a time and have always had an excellent service from both the telephone sales staff and the delivery drivers, price is good too. We would highly recommend anyone to use this company if you need pellets for heating. if we book 5 tons to be delivered but can only take 4.5 tons the balance of the money paid is always promptly returned to us.

I couldn't persuade your revamped website to log me on as a return customer or register me as a new one, so in the end I had to phone but this was worth it for the cheerful helpful manner and delightful northern irish accent of the person who answered and took the order. The pellets arrived very soon afterwards and although I was not at home, the delivery driver had the good sense to check where they had been left last time and offload there. well done - good product, great staff! (as a scot in exile I am also pleased that the pellets may hail from invergordon)

The price is very competitive. The quality of Pellets are very good, no dust when emptying the Pellets into the hopper. Delivery date is arranged to suit my needs. The only room for improvement is the drop off by the kerbside. I would pay more to have a smaller van that could drop off on driveway. Some delivery drivers go the extra mile. Very good company to buy from. Thank you.
