Wärtsilä Corp has won an order to deliver two BioEnergy wood-fired heating plants to the Finnish/Swedish paper company Stora Enso for installation in Russia. Their combined heating capacity is 24 MWth.

One plant will be at Impilahti in the Russian region of Karelia. It will be equipped with a Wärtsilä BioEnergy 10 boiler unit.

The other plant will be at Nebolch in the Novgorod region of Russia. It will be equipped with two Wärtsilä BioEnergy boiler units in the same building. One will produce 6 MWth and the other 8 MWth.

The Impilahti plant will start producing heat at the end of September and the Nebolch plant in October 2007. Both plants will burn wood residue in the form of bark from the Stora Enso sawmills.
