Østkraft orders conversion of coal power plant to biomass

Aalborg Energie Technik, a Danish biomass engineering company, has received an order for the conversion of Østkraft's 20-year-old boiler plant to combust biomass instead of coal.

The conversion and rebuilding with installation and commissioning will take place from July to September 2016.

After the conversion the plant will be capable of firing any combination of feedstock between 100% biomass and 100% coal.

The great variability in feedstock the plant can burn is due to the use of the AET Combi Spreader

AET has earlier been responsible for a similar conversion of the Verdo plant in Randers.
