Background

Örkelljunga Fjärrvärmeverk AB is owned by the municipality of Örkelljunga and was founded in the 1980s. The facility consists of two boilers rated at 7 MW and 3.5 MW, respectively, fueled by forest chips and forestry residues. To reduce electricity and grid costs while contributing to alleviating capacity shortages in southern Sweden, Örkelljunga Fjärrvärmeverk chose to invest in an ORC turbine from Againity.
