Two scenarios including cost benefit analysis of current situation and the government subsidy (30%) on the furnaces investment are investigated. The financial feasibility is also evaluated based on three important factors in the project, i.e., NPV > 0, IRR >7.01 % and PBperiods≤ 7 years. The results showed that the wood pellet boiler for industrial enterprise is a good choice for financially feasible with benefit cost of fuel and there is also a worthwhile investment.
