CHP biomass gasification facility in Frauenfeld

In Frauenfeld in Switzerland, the biggest SynCraft project was realised. it is 4xCW1800x2-1000 CHP facility, which delivers power and heat for about 8000 households as well as sugar-production factory and Frauenfeld town.

SynCraft - CHP in Ternitz

In September 2019 the construction of CHP facility CW1200-400 was started by company KWS Ökokraft GmbH. Despite Covid-pandemic the facility operation was started in July 2020.

Waste gasification in Lahti

100 kilometers north of Helsinki, Finland, in the city of Lahti, is the world’s first eco-gas fueled power plant. Lahti Energy’s Kymijärvi II power plant runs on SRF.The plant produces 50 MW of electricity and 90 MW of district heat for the city of Lahti. It was officially inaugurated in May of 2012.

The bioliq® pilot plant

The bioliq® pilot plant covers the complete process chain required for producing customized fuels from residual biomass. Power and heat als the by-products and cover the own demand of the facility. For energy densification of the biomass, fast pyrolysis is applied. The liquid pyrolysis oil and solid char obtained can be processed into intermediate fuels of high energy density. Fuel and chemicals production from syngas requires high pressures. Therefore, syngas production is already performed at pressures up to 80 bar by entrained flow gasification. Gas cleaning and conditioning are conducted at the same pressure at high temperatures allowing for optimal heat recovery and thus improved energy efficiency. In the bioliq® pilot plant the purified syngas is firstly converted into dimethyl ether and then further to gasoline.

Visit by Task 32 experts to Arbaflame (Norway)

As part of the task meeting in spring 2019, the experts from Task 32 visited the Arbaflame production site in Grasmo (Norway).

Steam Explosion plant of Arbaflame in Grasmo (Norway)

The ArbaOne plant in Grasmo, outside Kongsvinger, Norway, is the first large-scale commercial plant with an annual production capacity of 70,000 tonnes of steam-exploded pellets.

Thermally treated wood pellets

Thermally treated wood pellets (steam exploded) are used in a slightly adapted former coal-fired power plant in Thunder Bay (Canada) as a new climate-friendly fuel for electricity generation.

Visibility and Obervability of distribution grid assets and grid status

One challenge for the use of decentralized flexibility is the current lack of visibility of the systems and the lack of observability in the distribution grid, as well as the lack of real-time information on the topology of the distribution grid itself. These problems make it difficult to verify the actual need for flexibility as well as to validate or measure the flexibility provided.

Data exchange between different stakeholders as a challenge

The energy system data and the data exchange between transmission and distribution system operators, as well as suppliers and aggregators, are currently only sufficient to a limited extent to enable an appropriate provision of flexibility services.
