EGGER collaborates with SBG to establish a successful Biomass CHP Plant

Standardkessel Baumgarte GmbH is happy to partner with EGGER Group to establish a biomass CHP plant at the heart of the St. Johann. The heavy lift of the drum marks the completion of a particularly demanding phase on their construction site in St. Johann. Before that, large superheater modules had already been installed – under tight spatial conditions and with challenging weather influences.

Especially in a mountainous environment like this, forward-looking planning is crucial: weather windows must be used efficiently, and every move must be perfectly timed. Any delay can quickly impact the tightly scheduled construction sequence. When everything has to fit – from the first lift to the final installation – it takes a well-coordinated team with experience, precision, and dedication. The result: the heavy lifting phase is successfully completed, and the heart of the boiler is precisely in place.

The new biomass-fired combined heat and power (CHP) plant at EGGER Group’s site in St. Johann will supply heat and electricity for internal use – as well as district heating for the surrounding area. The plant combines an air-cooled pusher-type grate with an injection firing system and operates with a vertical four-pass boiler. This design ensures high efficiency and low emissions – a key element in EGGER’s strategy to fossil fuel use towards zero and achieve Net Zero by 2050.
