Demonstration of Biomass Energy Utilisation
Project PSO 0/CR/3/18: Sawmill KraŠIĆ
The project is implemented in Sawmill Krašić in central Croatia. Its goals are to
increase the production of dry wood products, integrate into international trade
flows of dry wood products and demonstrate the use of biomass in wood and
lumber industry.
Sawmill Krašić is the first demonstration project for biomass utilisation in Croatia
that has been initiated and completed under the auspices of the National Biomass
and Waste Utilisation Programme (BIOEN). A new 1 MW wood waste boiler and
two drying chambers with a combined volume of 170 m3 have been installed under
the framework of the project. The project was initiated in 2001 under the umbrella
of the bilateral technical assistance agreement between the Kingdom of the
Netherlands and the Republic of Croatia. The participants in the project included,
in addition to Krašić Sawmill and the Ministry of the Economy of the Kingdom of
the Netherlands - SENTER, Biomass Technology Group (BTG) b.v. and Kara Energy
Systems from the Netherlands, and Energy Institute Hrvoje Požar from Croatia.
