Solör Bioenergi Fjärrvärme AB – Flen, Sweden (99.9 kW)
Background
District heating production in Flen began in the early 2000s and is owned by Solör Bioenergi Fjärrvärme AB. The facility includes two biofuel boilers, primarily fueled by sawdust, forest chips, and bark from the surrounding area. Solör Bioenergi’s goal is to utilize forest resources and contribute to a sustainable society with reduced carbon emissions, which—together with lower energy costs—motivated the investment in an ORC turbine. Solör Bioenergi has previously invested in ORC turbines at its district heating plants in Hörby, Svenljunga, and Vilhelmina.
Our solution
Againity delivered an automated ORC system with a maximum electrical capacity of 99.9 kW. The ORC system enables electricity production from the hot water of the heating boiler. In total, the system is expected to produce 519 MWh annually, corresponding to emission reductions of 467 tonnes of CO₂ equivalents when replacing European marginal electricity.
