Biomass CHP – best practiceConclusions and recommendations
Anders Evald, Janet Witt, Kati VeijonenHarrie Knoef, Johan Vinterbäck, Elvira Lutter
Vienna 9 March 2006
![Page 2: Biomass CHP – best practice Conclusions and recommendations Anders Evald, Janet Witt, Kati Veijonen Harrie Knoef, Johan Vinterbäck, Elvira Lutter Vienna.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649e695503460f94b66ac8/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Project aims
• Promote biomass CHP in Europe and highlight plants with the best operation
• Provide e.g. authorities and future plant owners with information about typical plant performance and about best available technologies.
• Enable benchmarking, identify the improvement potential of the existing European CHP plants
• Replicate best practices• Challenge: collect reliable data

Conclusions and recommendations
1. Bigger is better– Higher efficicency– Lower own consumption– Better availability– Lower specific investment– But constrained by heat marked, and not
necessarily true for biogas plants
![Page 22: Biomass CHP – best practice Conclusions and recommendations Anders Evald, Janet Witt, Kati Veijonen Harrie Knoef, Johan Vinterbäck, Elvira Lutter Vienna.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649e695503460f94b66ac8/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Capacity and utilization
• Plants are bigger than simply justified by the heat market– High electricity price– Optimizing tariff income– Heat accumulator
• Plants built for the future• Plant nominal capacity is too optimistic – very few plant
perform anywhere near their anticipated (nominal) efficiency in practical operation
• Economic optimization– Not too small– Not too big
• Low utilization = poor payback on invested capital
![Page 23: Biomass CHP – best practice Conclusions and recommendations Anders Evald, Janet Witt, Kati Veijonen Harrie Knoef, Johan Vinterbäck, Elvira Lutter Vienna.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649e695503460f94b66ac8/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
CHP or not CHP
• Many plants are not 100% dependent on heat market (combined heat and power only as a fraction)
• German biogas plants produce very little heat, and they don’t meassure it
• Premium price for electricity not allways require full combined production– Incentive for RE, but not for the most efficient RE
• Large plants (MSW) cannot connect enough heat demand
![Page 24: Biomass CHP – best practice Conclusions and recommendations Anders Evald, Janet Witt, Kati Veijonen Harrie Knoef, Johan Vinterbäck, Elvira Lutter Vienna.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649e695503460f94b66ac8/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Balancing heat and power
• Energy efficiency: electricity is the premium product; heat is a by-product
• Valid also money-wise• But not allways: nordic heat markets show
high value for heat• Industrial facilities might see steam as the
main product and electricity as a byproduct
![Page 25: Biomass CHP – best practice Conclusions and recommendations Anders Evald, Janet Witt, Kati Veijonen Harrie Knoef, Johan Vinterbäck, Elvira Lutter Vienna.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649e695503460f94b66ac8/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Choosing the right technology
• Large difference in electric efficiency• Low electric efficiency is compensated by
more heat• Heat market set the framework• Steam cycles: go for high steam data• Retrofitting old equipment to improve
efficiency and reduce own consumption
![Page 26: Biomass CHP – best practice Conclusions and recommendations Anders Evald, Janet Witt, Kati Veijonen Harrie Knoef, Johan Vinterbäck, Elvira Lutter Vienna.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649e695503460f94b66ac8/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Industrial systems
• A more fragile heat market• Industries change• Operated according to steam demand – less
power and low utilization
![Page 27: Biomass CHP – best practice Conclusions and recommendations Anders Evald, Janet Witt, Kati Veijonen Harrie Knoef, Johan Vinterbäck, Elvira Lutter Vienna.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649e695503460f94b66ac8/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Reducing own consumption
• Big difference depending on choice of technology
• Option for improvement in old plants• Low efficiency lead to high own concumption
![Page 28: Biomass CHP – best practice Conclusions and recommendations Anders Evald, Janet Witt, Kati Veijonen Harrie Knoef, Johan Vinterbäck, Elvira Lutter Vienna.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649e695503460f94b66ac8/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Operational problems
• New challenges for plant operators• Fuel quality problems (feed systems, moisture
content, flue gas fans etc.)• Sintering bed material• Fouling heat transfer surfaces
– Decrease efficiency and high temperature corrosion
• Result: lower efficiencies, higher maintenance
• Exchange experience!
![Page 29: Biomass CHP – best practice Conclusions and recommendations Anders Evald, Janet Witt, Kati Veijonen Harrie Knoef, Johan Vinterbäck, Elvira Lutter Vienna.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649e695503460f94b66ac8/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Some concluding remarks [1]
• Technology implemented must be mature – Proven prototype models– Long-term duration tests
• Adequate infrastructure– Local manufacturing capacity– After-sale service– Training facilities– Sustainable feedstock supply
• Motivated & skilled labor – Operators, Management– Incentives
![Page 30: Biomass CHP – best practice Conclusions and recommendations Anders Evald, Janet Witt, Kati Veijonen Harrie Knoef, Johan Vinterbäck, Elvira Lutter Vienna.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649e695503460f94b66ac8/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Some concluding remarks [2]
• Information & knowledge exchange – Performance, limitations, opportunities– Evaluation with competing options– Set-up monitoring program of successes in India, China
• Clear regulations– Permitting procedures– Emission according to “ALARP”– Health, Safety & Environment
• Sale of electricity and heat– Any legal obstacle should be removed– Long-term fixed price is prerequisite
![Page 31: Biomass CHP – best practice Conclusions and recommendations Anders Evald, Janet Witt, Kati Veijonen Harrie Knoef, Johan Vinterbäck, Elvira Lutter Vienna.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649e695503460f94b66ac8/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Some concluding remarks [3]
• Product quality must meet client specifications– Technical performance– Financial/economic performance– Operational performance– Gaining confidence
• Certification – stimulation– product must meet defined quality standards
• Scale-up, demonstration, replication, optimization– Economy of numbers (instead of economy of scale)– Reduced capital costs– Improvement from learning by doing
![Page 32: Biomass CHP – best practice Conclusions and recommendations Anders Evald, Janet Witt, Kati Veijonen Harrie Knoef, Johan Vinterbäck, Elvira Lutter Vienna.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649e695503460f94b66ac8/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Some concluding remarks [4]
Do not repeat the mistakes from the past– learning by doing and not by a scientific approach
(cooperation is prefered)– too optimistic approach of the economics, efficiency and
availability, projections: 7000 hrs of operation in 1st year– no optimal cooperation of the ownership-consortium and
conflicting interests (who is responsible for what). • Manufacturer versus plant owner• Plant owner/technology supplier versus permitting
authority
