BIOMASS GAZIFICATION
Our fully automated industrial power plants use gasification technology to convert non-recoverable waste – wood chips – into reliable electricity and heat.
WHY BIOMASS?
A green alternative to fossil fuels
Our gasification technology uses forest residues - wood biomass in the form of wood chips - to produce wood gas that is then transformed into green electricity, heat, hydrogen, or steam.
Wood biomass is a renewable, environmentally friendly and affordable energy source that helps replace fossil fuels, increase fuel independence and reduce CO2 emissions.

OUR TECHNOLOGY
How biomass becomes power and heat
We have developed highly efficient wood gasification technology that transforms biomass into wood gas, called ‘syngas’. Syngas is used for heating and electricity generation through an engine and generator system.
