Metso, through the Metso-Wartsila joint venture MW Power, will provide a full-scope turn-key boiler plant solution, including all the necessary equipment and commissioning.
The heating plant will be fired with wood pellets and its heat input will be around 33MW.
The heating plant will be used as a peak load and backup plant and will replace some of the capacity of the existing oil- and gas-fuelled boiler plants to reduce the CO2 emissions resulting from the production of district heating.
The production of heat at the new plant will start in late 2012.
The order is included in Pulp, Paper and Power’s first quarter 2012 orders received.
