WAJIMA BIOMASS POWER PLANT
Wajima Woody Biomass Gasification and Power Generating Plant
TOYO Group constructed woody chip factory and biomass gasification and power generation plant in Wajima city, Ishikawa prefecture. Using unused forest thinning material made into chips and waste wood as a fuel, the plant generates 2MW power at woody biomass gasification plant. Woody biomass power generation is carbon neutral technology and contribute to the reduction of GHG emissions. Utilization of unused timber enables to maintain better conditions of the mountains, contributing to hydraulic control and job creation in the region.
