Biomass Power

A biomass-fired power plant produces electricity and heat by burning biomass in a boiler.

The most common types of boilers are hot water boilers and steam boilers. Wood chips, residues and other types of bio masses are used in the boilers, in the same way as coal, natural gas and oil.

Fuel is stored in a bunker for further transport to the boiler. In the boiler, water is heated to high temperature under pressure. Steam from the boiler powers the turbine, which is connected to the generator. Steam that has passed through the turbine, heats district heating water, which is distributed through the district heating network’s piping. Due to the turbine, it gives electricity and can be connected to the grid.

SBW Energy Group together with Intec Engineering, are the experts for this kind of power plants. As Indonesia has a lot of biomass possibilities as coconut, palm fruit, wood pellets and more, it could be one of the ways to have green energy
