Valmet will deliver a pellet-fired plant to Göteborg Energi in Sweden to boost renewable district heating.
Valmet has been selected in a public procurement process to deliver a 50 MW pellet-fired heating plant to Göteborg Energi AB to be built at Mölndal Energi’s Riskulla site in the municipality of Mölndal, Sweden.
The order is included in Valmet’s orders received of the second quarter 2024. The value of the order will not be disclosed. The pellet plant will be started up in late 2026.
The plant will be integrated into the existing district heating plant and operated by Mölndal Energi. The new boiler plant will meet the need for more renewable district heating in the southern part of Göteborg Energi’s district heating network and optimize district heat production in the Mölndal/Gothenburg region.
“Through this investment, we will be more resource-efficient and increase the amount of renewable district heating in the region. As a whole, the district heating customers in Mölndal and Gothenburg will get more cost-effective and reliable district heating,” says Per-Anders Gustafsson, CEO, Göteborg Energi.
“We are very pleased to continue our good cooperation with Göteborg Energi in replacing fossil fuels with renewable wood pellets in district heat production. This is the second order that they have placed on Valmet within a short period of time and an addition to our long track record of projects together,” says Aleksi Salmirinne, Vice President, Energy business unit, Pulp and Energy business line, Valmet.
