CLEAN ELECTRICITY

Electricity for the public grid

In addition to the main business from the sawmill and planing mill, we are making intensive efforts to produce alternative, renewable energies such as wood pellets, district heating for our own use, and green electricity.

The biomass cogeneration plant has been in operation since June 2006 and feeds green electricity into the public power grid. 

This is equivalent to the annual consumption of approx. 12,000 households (assuming 3,400 kWh per household).

The heat generated is used for the company’s own needs (lumber drying, chip drying and space heating)
