EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Yukon Territory has substantial biomass resources and the potential to use them for space heating and power generation, preferably in one system generating combined heat and power (CHP). The technologies on offer for biomass CHP are numerous and varied which makes selection very difficult for community leaders, even for those with an engineering background. This report presents an evaluation of small scale biomass electrical generation technologies “on offer” and includes the following technology areas and companies: Gasification (Community Power Corporation, Spanner Re2 GMBH/Borealis Wood Power, Ankur, Babcock Vølund Biomass Canada Ltd, Nexterra, PRM Energy Systems, Proton Power, Xylowatt, Zeropoint Clean Tech Inc); Organic Rankine Cycle (Infinity Turbine, Adoratec, Triogen, Turboden, Electratherm); Brayton Cycle (AgriPower Inc, Entropic Energy, Talbott’s Biomass Energy Systems); Stirling Engine (Stirling Power, Stirling DK). The evaluation includes a brief description of the technologies and companies and their track records. To this multitude of companies a relatively simple criteria was applied: A company may be considered “viable” for further consideration if they have at least five units currently in operation. Having a number of installed and operating units greater than five does not automatically mean that the technology is “turnkey ready”, especially in remote communities where local support may be minimal, but this is a good starting point. The following small-scale biomass-fired electrical generation technologies are considered “viable” for further evaluation, at this time: Gasification: Community Power Corporation Borealis Wood Power (Spanner Re2 GMBH) Organic Rankine Cycle: Infinity Turbine Adoratec Turboden At present no suitable Brayton cycle, Stirling cycle are available that would be suitable for installation at Haines Junction or at any other community in the Yukon Gasification systems, although the most active field in terms of research and development do not have a strong track record. The strongest candidate at the current time is a 45 kWe Spanner system, represented in Canada by Borealis Wood Power. Spanner has over 150 operating units operating in Europe and as long as the limitations of the technology are respected it seems to perform well. Europe is also the primary location for operating ORC systems. Of the three systems considered “viable” only one company, Turboden, is actively pursuing the North American market. Turboden’s North American offerings have been limited, to date, to their larger systems (1-2 MWe) which may be too large for many remote communities. 2
