Long term activities
Once the concept has been proved at the initial power plant scale of 50MW, the Low Temperature Gasifier will be further up-scaled to meet the requirements dictated by the market in the power plant sector in Denmark and abroad.
The fully up-scaled plants are expected to have a capacity of 100-150MW which makes it possible to substitute a substantial portion of the coal consumption by co-firing biomass and waste at large power plants. Substituting 50% coal may be possible with several Low Temperature Gasifiers working in parallel and/or with a limited boiler size.
In smaller de-central plants the fully up-scaled Low Temperature Gasifier may be used as stand-alone units producing power solely based on readily available local biomass and waste.
