Descrição detalhada da prática ou projeto

The EXVER company is part of a group of companies dedicated to forestry (FORESA, TRABAJOS FORESTALES EBRO S.L., AECO, FORESGA and TOROZOS RESTAURACIÓN Y JARDINERÍA S.L.). It is responsible for the energy service to companies and individuals.

The production of quality woodchips adapted to the needs of the customers. This woodchip comes from virgin wood, directly from its forests, without industrial pollutants or chemical residues, and is classified, screened and dried in its treatment plants.

The result is a homogeneous product (less jams and breakdowns) with high thermal efficiency (PCI: 4.12 kWh / kg for 20% humidity) almost without ashes (<1%). From € 84 / tn = € 20.39 / MWh

As a complement to guarantee the service to its customers, FORESA distributes pellets of proven quality, both in bags and in bulk.

For bulk distribution, they have their own pneumatic dump tank truck. In this way, they guarantee a personalized service developed under optimal discharge conditions that ensure the integrity of the pellet.

This team also has:

• dust extraction and filtration system

• approved scale and ticket issuance printer

• 20 meters of hose with 110 Storz socket

• Client portfolio

• Quality woodchip production

• Good practices

The center is designed to collect 40,000 tons / year but commercial demand only gives 10,000tn / year.

Auctions are held by the administration and EXVER presents its corresponding projects to obtain contracts.

From EXVER they have shown their opinion regarding the administration. They believe that they should bet more on this type of energy and that they should change the legal instruments to facilitate the entry of private companies and help their expansion. They believe that public companies should not cover as much land as it could hinder the development of companies in the sector.

They believe that the mountains of Extremadura have great potential and that from 150-200 km ceases to be competitive. Politicians and administration entities should be made aware to support the sector.

In 2006 they carried out a reform in the town hall, using a biomass boiler to heat the building. The good results obtained led to the replacement of all municipal boilers.

The municipality of Coca buys the wood chips from SOMACYL and is transported from the Valladolid plant, 70 km to Coca. The price of the wood chips, at that time, was paid at € 54 / tn, placed at the silo door and with an average humidity of 30%.

Currently, it uses its own resources and has its own machinery to produce splinters.

A biomass availability study was carried out throughout the territory, making it for each municipality (m3). An analysis of the thermal demand of each municipality (Kwh) was carried out. Analysis of self-supply and sale of heat to other consumers. The project was analyzed from three types of scenarios and the jobs they could create were studied. Boilers installed since 2006: 30 units, with a total power of 3.7 MW.

A first phase was carried out changing the diesel boilers of municipal buildings. They started with about 5 boilers and gradually increased until they reached about 30 boilers distributed throughout the region. Then there was a second phase in which hotels and campsites began to participate as well, reaching 44 boilers today. The boilers used are from 500 Kw with a value of € 250,000, to boilers of 70 Kw. 3,000 tons per year are what they need to supply boiler consumption. The hotels get to amortize the boilers in 3 years.

The works are carried out by municipal brigades or external companies. A chipper is rented for a short period. Each town has a warehouse of about 1000-2000 m2 to store the wood chips. The current idea would be the construction of one or two logistics centers to minimize costs. However, they are in full political debate and have trouble getting the project through.

They have no certification and for now they are not interested because it costs more.

Generally the change of boilers is not usually subsidized, but sometimes they have received aid from the Energy and Forestry Institute of Catalonia and the Gerenalitat.

On marketing, the city council directly supplies the hotels. In total 5 hotels. There is no legal instrument for the sale of the wood chips.

In the case of having a surplus, it is planned to make a sale to villages in France or Andorra.

• Average annual savings in green waste management: € 25,000.

• Average annual energy savings: € 22,000.

• Total pellet production capacity the first year: 300 tons.

• Total pellet production capacity: 800-1,000 tons.

• Total reduction of CO2 emissions per year: 350 tons.

• Protected hectares p through forest fire prevention work: 130 ha.

• Employment created in wood pellet production plant and biomass extraction: 5 people.

 Good forest harvesting practices

 Short circuit

 Entrepreneurship giving added value to the pellet with its commercialization

 Promotion of the creation of local employment.

Currently, the Serra project wants to participate in a LIFE project in order to improve certification, increase production and marketing of the pellet.

They produce 300 tons, in a design for 800 tons. The city council uses more or less half and the rest is commercialized. To market the pellet the city council works with legal instruments. In this case it uses the payment by fees, as if they were municipal services. Later this implies a declaration of income to the city council in the documents of the Treasury.

Descrição detalhada da prática ou projeto

The installed boiler provides heating and sanitary hot water to public buildings, through a circuit of pipes buried at a depth of one meter, conveniently sealed and insulated so that heat loss is minimal and its efficiency is very high. A modern boiler of 1,000 Kw of thermal power, of Danish origin, was installed, whose operation yields over 90% combustion efficiency, which guarantees that the fumes are practically negligible at the exit of the chimney, thus replacing the polluting diesel or electric boilers that fed these administrative buildings.

To close this circuit, it was left self-sufficient of the forest wastes of the mountains of the locality, because the chips that were used as fuel were acquired from a company specialized in recovery of wood of industrial and forest origin, at 10% of the value of diesel of heating in those moments. Montes de las Navas S.A. It worked to ensure that a good part of the remains generated in the forestry works of the mountain so that they could be used and consumed in this boiler. The Forest Management Project guaranteed that this energy use would be sustainable and compatible with the conservation of the mountain, since the waste generated in the ordinary wood cuts and the treatments that reduce the density in the young pine masses were used to avoid Fire spread and improve forest health.

City council workers are responsible for the work at Montes de las Navas S.A., since it is a 100% city council company. It is a legal instrument to enable the sale of wood chips produced to other entities. When the project started, Montes de las Navas S.A. was in charge of all handling work. However, since 2016 SOMACYL has been in charge of the transformation to pellet of the forest use produced by the company of Las Navas. They work via assignments, a legal instrument in which the city council entrusts work to SOMACYL. Las Navas city council is only responsible for loading the silo that feeds the boiler.
