Meva Power plant
The product is a turn-key power plant for co-generated production of power and heat from biomass feedstock. The plant size is 1-5 MWe and 2-10 MWth. The plant is based on biomass gasification and in particular on the utilisation of fine fraction feedstock. Meva Energy’s power plant technology is suitable for industrial application and can utilise feedstock residue from wood-based manufacturing or agriculture to create a local, circular energy system with minimised transportation and distribution losses.
CommercialisedDecentralised biomass cogeneration with 2nd generation biomass.
Low cost, high efficiency production of renewable, decentralised power and heat. Acceptance of fine fraction, low cost feedstock. Production of even gas quality with high energetic content, suitable for a high efficiency lean-burn gas engine. Relatively noncomplex system layout, low pressure and temperature. Highly controllable power source able to balance power grids due to intermittency of solar and heat.
The need
When addressing the need for industrial-sized cogeneration or combined heat and power (CHP) from solid biomass, today’s paradigm is either to build large scale power plants (larger than 10 MWe) using steam turbine CHP technology, or to burn the feedstock in a boiler – producing only heat.
The solution
Meva Energy’s solution is to enable power and heat production in the range below the commercial feasibility of steam turbine technology.
