Our Brands
CoalSwitch® is our flagship clean fuel, produced from waste materials generated by lumber and forestry operations. Engineered as a high-performance, energy-efficient alternative, it serves as a direct drop-in replacement for both coal and traditional white biomass pellets—delivering lower emissions without requiring infrastructure changes.
Reaching Net Zero requires innovation beyond conventional biomass fuels. At Active Energy Group, we’re redefining what’s possible.
Our flagship product, CoalSwitch®, transforms waste materials from lumber operations into a high-performance, energy-dense fuel that serves as a direct drop-in replacement for coal or white biomass pellets—delivering lower emissions without costly infrastructure upgrades.
To build on this success, AEG is actively investing in R&D initiatives focused on developing additional biomass fuels derived from waste timber and next-generation energy crops. These fuels are designed to serve as primary feedstocks or be co-fired with coal, offering flexible, low-carbon solutions to accelerate the transition to a net-zero energy system.
The role of biomass
Biomass fuels are an integral part of the green renewable mix
Biomass is an essential component in the global energy transition, providing a renewable, low-carbon alternative to traditional fossil fuels. It enables industries—particularly power generation and heavy industry—to reduce their carbon footprint without the need for extensive infrastructure changes.
At Active Energy Group, we focus on converting waste materials from lumber and forestry operations into high-quality, next-generation fuels such as CoalSwitch®. This approach not only displaces coal but also supports sustainable resource management by turning waste into valuable energy.
By advancing biomass technologies and investing in innovative feedstocks, AEG is committed to expanding the role of biomass in the energy mix, driving both environmental benefits and energy security as part of the journey to Net Zero.
