CoalSwitch®
THE NEXT GENERATION CARBON-NEUTRAL FUEL IS HERE
As companies and industries around the world face either regulatory pressure or consumer demand for decarbonization (or both), companies too often are forced to turn to unproven and costly mitigation technologies or expensive and recurring carbon offset purchases.
CoalSwitch® Highlights
More sustainable
- Made from low-cost wood derived bio-carbon from forestry & lumber operations
- Reduces life-cycle emissions of coal burning by 99%
- Double-digit reductions in NOx and SOx
Completely compatible
- Can be co-fired at any blend rate with traditional coal
- Handles like coal -transported, stored & ground in existing equipment
- Demonstrated performance without fouling
Upends traditional cost model
- Parity with coal on a Total Cost of Ownership model
- No CapExcosts for compliance
- Reduced need for offsets or penalty payments
The first premium pellet that can be blended with coal as a better biomass solution than white pellets with our increased carbon density
CoalSwitch® exclusively focused on utilizing low-value forestry residuals
OUR TECHNOLOGY
A second generation biomass fuel that has been tested, and proven, to replace the traditional coal fired-power industry and existing renewable biomass industry without requiring plant modification.
