The WE-50C uses inexpensive wood chips. After wood gasification, a CHP unit provides for the generation of electricity and heat, as in the WE-50P. The plant is particularly suitable for forestry and agriculture.

The 135 kW plant WE-135C has proven itself very well and is one of the 'classics'. Very suitable for forestry and wood processing, hotels (also with spa), breweries, dairies, nurseries and heating networks. In addition to wood chips, this plant can also be operated with wood briquettes (pressed wood chips from wood residues).

In Bamberg, an adventure pool is heated by means of our wood-fired power generation plant. The plant is purely heat-led. It has been providing reliable service since 2011.
In 2021, a pellet-fired WE-50P CHP and high-efficiency chillers/heaters were installed at Kushima Hospital.
A larger plant equipped with 8 modules is located in Scotland. It has been operating reliably since summer 2017, producing 1 MW of electricity along with the corresponding thermal output.
Our wood gas plant for a glulam manufacturer in Mühlbach/South Tyrol went into service in October 2013. The special feature: The plant is not fired with wood chips but with wood briquettes. This required extensive research and testing in advance. Our wood gas plant runs in continuous operation day after day, year after year. It is reliable, low-maintenance and an indispensable part of our production process.

Electricity can be fully or partially self-consumed. In addition, electricity can be sold on the free market and fed into the public grid.
The gasifier can feed into a combined heat and power plant in parallel with a biogas plant.
In addition to heat, cold can also be produced in combination with an absorption refrigeration plant. Thus, our plants can provide added value all year round.
+Projects with coolingIn early 2014, a 125 kW + 65 kW plant was commissioned in Sampeyre, Italy. The customer, a salami producer, uses the electricity and converts the generated heat into cold.
Special feature: “Hot version”, heat is extracted at 105 °C.
Annual operating time: +8,200 hours
The heat can be used to heat buildings, to generate hot water or as process heat, e.g. for material drying. When generating process heat, the reliability of the plant is particularly important so as not to interrupt the production process.
+Projects with process heatA manufacturer of glulam beams in Mühlbach, South Tyrol, connected a 125 kWel plant to the grid in October 2013 and is currently supplying 139 kWel.
The special feature: The plant is not fired with wood chips but with wood briquettes.
Annual operating time: +8,600 hours
The prototype plant has been in operation in Wegscheid since 2009 and generates 125 kWel.
The electricity is fed into the utility grid, the heat is sold as process heat to three neighboring companies and used for heating.
Our products are suitable both for captive use for companies and for feeding into the public power grid (neighboring companies or residential complexes).
In combination with a condensation plant, heat can even be used to produce drinking water from the air.

Wood pellets are compressed wood shavings that are mainly made from sawdust. As they have a uniform shape and high quality, they are very suitable for our biomass CHP plants. The pellets are transported to the gasifier via a hose conveyor.
Wood chips are produced from residual wood, e.g. from forest wood, sawmill by-products or industrial waste wood. Wood chips are particularly suitable as fuel for combined heat and power plants in rural areas, as more space is required to store the material. The wood chips are transported to the gasifier by a screw conveyor, where they are converted into wood gas.
Wood residues from wood processing, such as planing or sawdust, are compressed into wood briquettes.

A biomass CHP unit with wood-fired power generation is particularly worthwhile for companies that require constant large amounts of thermal energy for their operations – even in summer. This is because a biomass cogeneration plant is only maximally economical if it operates at full load for a certain number of hours per year. Alternatively, excess heat energy can also be converted into cooling energy in the summer.
Our CHP units generate electricity and heat all year round. Therefore, there should be sufficient electricity and heat demand throughout the year.
Technical requirements:
To ensure a smooth start-up of the system on site, the customer will provide the following on-site installations:
A plant for wood-fired power generation is a very individual solution, where the investment costs and also the running costs can be very different. In addition, the various fuels and, if applicable, their processing also result in varying costs. Depending on the application in the process or in the building, different subsidy amounts also come into play, so that a generalization of the total costs is hardly possible.
Companies that use wood-fired power generation by means of a biomass cogeneration plant to generate energy and thus make a contribution to climate protection receive financial support at many levels in Germany. In addition to the feed-in tariff for surplus electrical energy, the German Federal Ministry of Economics and Export Control (BAFA) supports corresponding projects.
The Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau (KfW) also supports climate-friendly rethinking with development loans and repayment subsidies of up to 55 percent of the eligible costs. And the individual German states and regions also reward the use of biomass CHP units as progressive and environmentally friendly energy generation.
