If I were to dry wood chips, I'd be building a variation on the linear corn crib.

Wide enough for a loader and a minimum of 7 meters tall*.* Planks at loader scraping height with wire or chain link fencing above. Polyethylene roof. Orient it across the path of the summer winds if possible.

Having tried it at a smaller scale, I'm inclined to think it would work here with one or two good drying months out of twelve.

The question of how to easily dry green wood chips addresses one of the most 
important problems in wood energy:  how to dry green chips!  Wood is much 
easier to chip wet, but a chip pile never dries of its own accord.
