news item image

Enshu Forest Energy began commercial operations at its 7.1MW biomass plant in Fukuroi city of Shizuoka prefecture, Japan on 16 November, reported Argus Media.
The facility is expected to burn 90,000t/yr of wood chips made from unused forest materials, which will be gathered primarily from Shizuoka prefecture.
It has the capacity to generate approximately 53GWh/yr of electricity, set to be sold under Japan's feed-in tariff scheme for two decades.
The site came on line a fortnight earlier than expected, because operating company Enshu Forest Energy completed its safety check and test runs ahead of schedule.
Enshu Forest Energy is a joint venture between Forest Energy, Shizuoka Gas and Power and Chubu Electric Power.
