A new co-operation agreement for the Chalmers University of Technology gasifier has been entered into with boiler manufacturer Metso Power. The agreement, which also includes Göteborg Energi and Akademiska Hus, will reinforce the research project with additional funding of SEK 10 million and will mark the start of commercialisation of the gasification technology that is currently being demonstrated at Chalmers.
Chalmers gasification is a research facility on an industrial scale where the technology that is being demonstrated has the potential to produce more than 10 TWh of biogas each year in the existing Swedish district heating systems. This is equivalent to 10 per cent of the fuel required to meet Swedish transport needs. Through the agreement Metso Power, as one of the leading manufacturers of boilers and gasification equipment for biomass, will give the project a business orientation.
