Biomass Co-Firing for Thermal Power Plants

Access a vetted network of pellet suppliers for biomass co-firing in thermal power plants. Reliable sourcing for sustainable energy solutions. Co-firing is a sustainable, low-cost option for efficiently converting biomass to electricity by using biomass as a partial alternate fuel in coal-fired boilers. Policy for co-firing of biomass in thermal power plants mandates minimum 5% co-firing of biomass along with coal in thermal power plants. Biomass pellets have been co-fired so far in 39 thermal power plants across the country. Co-firing feasibility depends largely on location, power plant type, and the availability of biomass fuels. Fuel supply is the most critical factor. Proximity to pellet manufacturers, optimized transportation costs, and dependable supply are paramount. Pellets are not only energy efficient but also could be economically viable.
