Replacing coal with biomass: Vaasa biogasification
Replacement import coal with local biomass in utility boiler Vaskiluodon Voima, Finland Ÿ Circulating fluidized bed gasifier plant that converts biomass into product gas Ÿ Gasifier added to existing power plant to replace 40% of coal with biomass Key results Ÿ Fossil fuels can be partly replaced with renewable energy Ÿ Reduction of carbon dioxide emissions by about 230,000 tons per year Ÿ Existing assets utilized and power plant life-time significantly extended 10 CO2 savings correspond to the emissions of a European city with 30,000 inhabitants1) 1) Source: European Commission's Joint Research Centre Gasification Finland oktober 7, 2014
Supply of Biomass 11 The fuel is procured within 100 kilometers of the plant: • Wood (forest harvest residues) 90% (50–100%) • Straw and reed canary grass 0% (0–5%) • Peat (milled) 10% (0–50%) Amount: • 900 GWh/a • 30 trucks a day
Main project drivers Main drivers for the project: Ÿ To replace large amount (25-40%) of coal with renewable CO2-neutral fuel. ‒ The gasification plant will be run on full capacity and coal firing will be reduced on boiler part loads. Ÿ To extend the lifetime of the existing power plant unit Ÿ To achieve capability to use multiple fuels (fuel cost optimization) Ÿ To guarantee a cost-effective district heating solution
Investment cost and benefits Ÿ Total investment cost 40 M€. State investment subsidy 10,8 M€ (Ministry of Employment and the Economy) Ÿ Cost savings: ‒ Reduction of CO2-emission cost, reduction of CO2-emissions up to 230 000 t/yr. ‒ Feed-in tariffs of renewable energy ‒ Reduction of the environmental taxes of district heating Ÿ Other benefits: ‒ Lower total cost compared with construction of a new biomass power plant and much higher efficiency ‒ Gasification compared with wood pellet firing: avoid high cost of pellet production (around +50%) and pellet milling is avoided ‒ Local fuels - Positive effects to the local economy, 15 M€/a. • The new activities will employ 100 people in fuel logistics 13 Vaskiluodon Voima Oy
Vaasa bio-gasification plant Ÿ 140 MW biomass gasification plant Ÿ Connected to existing 565 MW coal-fired boiler Ÿ Replacing 40% of annual coal consumption with biomass Ÿ Forestry residue with up to 50% moisture Schedule Ÿ Award 6/2011 Ÿ Hand Over 12/2012 Total investment < 40 M€ 14
Valmet scope in Vaskiluodon Voima’s gasification project Ÿ Full scope services with total plant optimization – Fuel receiving and handling – Drying – Gasification – Boiler modifications incl. gas burners – Automation, electrification and instrumentation Wet biomass Existing PC boiler Instrumentation, electrification and automation Product gas Biomass receiving and pre-handling Large-scale belt dryer CFB gasifier 140 MWfuel Dried biomass Combustion
