Fuel Comparison Charts
WEBPrice per kilowatt hour (kWh) is the best way to compare the cost of heat generated by different fuels, whether logs, coal, gas or electricity. Don't forget, moisture content has a big effect on energy released, so dry fuel is best. Seasoned logs have a high moisture content (mc) – 18 – 30%mc. Kiln dried logs are drier – 12%mc to 18%mc.
