Found this from Penn State. Seems to be a fairly realistic energy guide. Taking into account for Moisture content, real world BTU, etc.... Thought you may all like to see it. And the site has alot of great info on it also.

Great Energy Cost Calculators are increasingly available to help determine typical savings possible with Corn or Wood Pellets when compared to Electricity, Propane, and Heating Oil for millions of American households without access to Natural Gas.
The Energy Information Adminsitration has modified their calculator to adjust the BTU content for wood pellets or corn based upon moisture content and variation in Heat Values among various brands. Dynamic energy cost comparisons allowing for regional differences in energy costs are critical for consumers to make informed decisons. |
