Waste Wood to ORC Electricity Potential

This first-pass engineering tool estimates how much useful heat can be produced from weekly waste wood, then checks which Enogia ORC units are viable from that heat and what annual electricity they could generate. It is a sales and early feasibility guide, not a final design tool.

ORC suitability is based on available heat from waste wood. Final boiler and ORC configuration depends on full plant design and may involve multiple boilers or multiple ORC units.

Main Input

Range: 1-24 t/week (standard view for most users).

Heat and Electricity Summary

Energy Flow

Enogia ORC Options

Suitability is based on annual heat available for ORC after site thermal demand.

Threshold Comparison

Annual heat available vs annual thermal input required for each ORC.

Engineering Guidance

This calculator compares heat availability against ORC thermal demand. It does not assume a fixed one-boiler-to-one-ORC architecture. Real projects can use staged boiler plants, multiple ORCs, or shared heat headers with competing process loads.

Final design should confirm hydraulic arrangement, heat profile over time, controls strategy, redundancy, and commercial operating model.
