Here is a summarized version of the text in 400 words:
After 18 months of work, a biomass cogeneration plant valued at €12 million was successfully completed by E.ON Energy Infrastructure Solutions and premium parquet manufacturer Bauwerk Group Hrvatska. Located in Đurđevac, Croatia, the facility used wood chips – a byproduct of Bauwerk’s parquet production process – as fuel, generating electricity and thermal energy.
The daily fuel consumption was estimated to be approximately 70 tons, with an output of 1.1 megawatts (MW) of electricity and 6 MW of thermal energy. This substantial energy yield could power over 2,300 households annually, providing them with a steady source of heat. The sustainable operation of this cogeneration plant means that customers benefit from improved reliability and eliminated peak demand challenges by using multiple fuels.
Beyond financial benefits, the plant showcased exceptional environmental consideration since it could process wood residue more efficiently while preserving natural reserves, reducing fuel wood consumption from Croatia’s rural landscape. Bauer Gruppe aims at reducing both resource consumption by not using water supply and disposal systems, providing its customers low consumption of their electrical energy output power.
Further improvements were taken while constructing plant layout, designing supply chain procedures by implementing and verifying the feasibility tests. Additional plans were assigned for the upcoming future, demonstrating continued commitment on efficiency and reduction with the utilization.
The seven years of electricity consumption under agreement via Power Purchase (PPA), the firm made a further demonstration of determination while investing with both financial implications.
In final result, energy-intensive industries receive low-cost support because of stable demand and flexibility they can bring over the other ways of procurement their energy production; this innovation promotes the role.
