In Finland, Valmet said it will supply a biomass plant to Göteborg Energi AB in Gothenburg, Sweden.
Göteborg Energi is building a new plant to produce energy and district heat from renewable and recovered sources by 2025.
The order will be included in Valmet’s orders received of the fourth quarter 2023. The value of the order will not be disclosed, the company said.
“The new plant is a milestone for us and the last step in our conversion of district heating. With the new facility, we will get rid of natural gas and can offer our customers 100% renewable and recovered energy in our district heating. We look forward to cooperating with Valmet in this key project,” said Per-Anders Gustafsson, CEO of Göteborg Energi.
Valmet’s delivery will include a 140 MWth Valmet BFB Boiler plant utilizing bubbling fluidized bed technology as well as a flue gas cleaning system and a flue gas condensing system. The primary fuels will include forest residues and recycled wood chips. Start-up of the plant is scheduled for 2025, Valmet said.
