Bulgaria - Wood Residue to Energy Project
Gelb, Alan et al
The Wood Residue to Energy Project in Bulgaria, aims at reducing greenhouse gas emissions generated at Svilosa, by substituting coal with residual wood as a fuel for power, and heat generation, and, through savings of methane emissions from residual wood waste, stockpiled at the plant. The first component involves the installation of a biomass boiler to burn wood residues, thus reducing the amount of coal needed in the combined heat and power (CNP) plant, but providing the Svilosa facility with the same energy requirements. As a result, it will reduce the release of greenhouse gases, and local pollutants, while the utilization of biomass wastes will reduce the release of methane emissions, which would have been released if these wastes were to be disposed. The biomass boiler to be installed, will have a capacity of 13 MW, and two scenarios have been considered: a) realistic case which assumes double production capacity by 2005; or, b) worst case, which assumes no expansion. The second component - emission reduction monitoring and certification - will ensure the appropriate monitoring and evaluation criteria, emission reduction units calculation, and verification and certification, as contained in the monitoring plan.
