Biomass co-firing services
Co-firing biomass can deliver significant cost savings. It can also increase the share of renewables in your power production portfolio.
Journey continues on Veracity, DNV's trusted digital platform.
Under the right economic conditions, co-firing biomass is an effective way to reduce your operating costs. We can help you assess the potential benefits for your plant(s) through a proven co-firing assessment methodology that allows you to understand both the short- and long-term implications of using biomass.
This methodology draws on 20 years’ hands-on experience of direct and indirect co-firing of various biomass fuels. During this time we have been involved in over 50 small and full-scale trials, with mixtures of coal and biomass at up to 30% of the overall volume of fuel.
Besides conducting feasibility studies, we can support you in actual implementation of co-fired installations based on the results of these studies.
