Our biomass power plants utilise virgin wood, waste wood, residues from the wood-processing and paper industries, as well as other biogenic residual fuels to generate heat and power. Combining modern plant technology with more than a century of boiler and power plant engineering, each solution is tailored to fuel characteristics, site conditions and operational requirements, with a focus on high availability, long service life and efficient operation.
Every project comes with its own fuel characteristics, plant configuration and operational requirements. Drawing on experience gained across 65 biomass projects, we develop robust and reliable solutions. As part of the JFE Group, we combine this practical know-how with the global resources and technological strength of a Fortune 500 company.

For industries such as wood processing, paper and agriculture, production residues are more than a by-product. Our plants convert them into heat, power and steam directly on site, reducing reliance on fossil fuels while improving efficiency, security of supply and competitiveness.
Municipal biomass-fired power plants complement weather-dependent renewable energy sources such as wind and solar with a reliable and dispatchable source of energy. They provide heat for district heating networks and generate electricity as required, helping to reduce reliance on fossil fuels such as coal and natural gas.
“We develop solutions that work efficiently today and will still be viable tomorrow – with experience, robust systems, and particular strength in large outputs of up to 140 MWth.”
Our biomass power plants have a modular design. Tailored to your needs—adapted to the fuel, location, and target. The modules are tried and tested, low-maintenance, and designed for longevity. This results in plants that are economical, efficient, and future-proof.
Advance grate, fluidized bed, or pulverized fuel firing
Horizontal or vertical, with modules for cleaning, protection, and refractory lining
Wet, dry, or semi-dry—with DeNOx, condensation, and CCS preparation
Subsidy policies, fuel diversity, and CO2 utilization are changing requirements. Those who act now will secure efficiency, flexibility, and market advantages.
With the end of national subsidies, EU standards are coming into focus. RED III and EU taxonomy define which projects are “green.” For operators, efficiency, flexibility, and verifiability are key. Those who modernize early and obtain certifications will secure competitive advantages.
Solid biomass is diverse—from waste wood and residues to fast-growing energy crops. Its calorific value, ash behavior, and pollutant content vary depending on its origin. Modern plants rely on flexible combustion systems that can reliably process different qualities. This increases fuel availability, reduces costs, and eliminates dependence on individual markets.
With Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS), CO₂ can be captured from the flue gas stream. Modern capture technologies achieve high capture rates, creating additional potential for emissions reduction while opening up new opportunities through CO₂ utilisation and emerging carbon credit mechanisms.
