…he development of biomass co-utilisation with fossil fuels – in particular co-firing – and about the remaining barriers that need to be overcome in order to accelerate the penetration of co-utilisation technologies in the market. At the workshop presentations were given by seven invited speakers. Co-utilisation is the simultaneous use of various fuels in the same energy production application and as far as bioenergy is concerned it applies to soli…

Date: 20 Oct 2021…ation has been mostly limited to CHP and district heating and a handful of co-firing applications. Until recently, the development of advanced processes and broader application of biomass gasification for synthesis gas has been impeded by competition from low-cost fossil fuels combined with policy uncertainty as well as insufficient incentives from policy interventions. However, the field of biomass and waste gasification is experiencing a structu…
Date: 1 Mar 2021…Indirect co-firing consists of the combustion of producer gas from biomass/waste gasification in coal-fired furnaces or lime kilns. Gasification can be thus considered a method for biomass pre-processing. For factsheet click here…
Date: 12 Dec 2009…pellet markets face increasing competition – both the large-scale use for co-firing with coal or standalone bio-powerplants (price pressure from other low-carbon electricity technologies) and the residential use (competition from e.g., district heating, heat pumps, biogas and biomethane, as well as renewable power-to-gas). On the other hand, wood pellets are seen as a key supply option for Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS), and Bi…
