Can anyone help?

We live on a remote farm with our house and other buildings being heated by a 10year old biomass boiler system.

We’re being told that our control panel needs replacing and that it is no longer available as many of the components are now obsolete.

A whole new control panel is likely to cost several grand and there is no idea of how long delivery might be.

I live in East Anglia and wondered if there was anywhere trusted to take the motherboards that I have removed?

We have no heating and no hot water and my family is not very impressed. Any suggestions very, very welcome! I attach some photos to give you some idea of what we’re dealing with.

Make of boiler?

(You don't have any alternative means of getting hot water? Electric immersion etc??).

Have you tried contacting the manufacturer?

Looking at the circuitboard, it looks as though it's Sigmatek, in Austria:

It looks like these guys hold some new-old stock from Sigmatek as well as offering component level repairs:

What exactly does all that switchgear do? Can't you link out the controller to gain manual control of heating and hot water?

From what I can tell, it looks as though it's a little more involved than your average household gas boiler... It looks to be a controller for a biomass burner, which burns pellets.
