presenting my "big" project for this year -> Compost heating to heat a 400m² offgrid house. (czech mountains, proper winter -25°C )

Main benefits:
-Cheap -> woodwaste and shredded bushes as material
-Reliable -> compost will do its thing, very hard to fock that up
-Passive -> after setting it up it will run for 15 to 24 month, 24/7 day and night
- Not Dangerous -> wood compost has around 50°C to 60°C max, no steam , no fire, no explosions
for smaller cabins this is much more easy to setup, for larger houses one needs space to be able to scale the compost in size properly.

I will be building a 12kW Compost Heating, integrate it into my existing redundant heating cycle and turn wastewood into glorious humus by heating my house.
