Biomass Plants

Do you operate a biomass heating (power) plant for energy generation and want to secure or increase its economic efficiency? Our plant optimisation covers your entire system, from fuel to technology, operation and energy utilisation. We can also support you with our many years of engineering expertise when designing new biomass plants. Through interdisciplinary planning and the utilisation of synergy effects, we create the appropriate conditions for subsequent economical operation right from the planning stage.


Is the use of biomass also interesting for me?

Utilising biogenic fuels to generate heat, cooling and electricity is an effective way of reducing CO2 emissions and therefore contributes directly to climate protection. Such projects are therefore extremely attractive in the context of CO2-neutral production. However, it is not only the technical feasibility of such plants that is decisive for their economic success, but also correct dimensioning and the reliable supply of the corresponding fuel ranges.


Biomass CHP plants

Biomass CHP plants for combined heat and power generation can be an economically interesting plant option if there is a corresponding heat requirement. If you have a process with a corresponding heat requirement, a feasibility analysis should be carried out to check whether a biomass CHP plant is worthwhile for you.

The economic efficiency of existing plants can often be increased by optimising the plant. This optimisation concept should cover your entire system, from fuel to technology, operation and energy use.


Why should you optimise your biomass systems?

What was optimal yesterday no longer has to fit today. The economic situation of your biomass plants may have deteriorated due to a shift in the energy industry framework conditions. From our experience, however, we can show you ways to counteract this.

You will receive an interdisciplinary and manufacturer-independent analysis of your overall system. Our experts will independently assess your cost situation and make a cost comparison with similar projects. You receive an analysis of the future viability of your system.

We are also happy to provide you with long-term support.

HOW WE PROCEED WHEN WE OPTIMISE YOUR BIOMASS PLANTS

  • Potential analysis

In the search for optimisation and savings potential, we examine your fuel and operating costs, look for avoidable energy losses and check the technology for its future viability in line with your current and future goals.

  • Benchmark

We analyse and compare your biomass plant with other projects (benchmark). We analyse and calculate supplementary or alternative generation technologies.

  • Fuel procurement concepts

Based on market studies on fuel availability and potential (source/sink analyses), we develop customised fuel procurement concepts for a permanent reduction in procurement costs.

  • Development of independent controlling

We support you in setting up an independent controlling system. This allows you to keep an eye on your costs and any deviations at all times. Or you can outsource your controlling to us!

It is not the technical feasibility of biomass CHP plants, but the correct dimensioning and provision of the appropriate fuel ranges that are the key factors for economic success.
