25-MW biomass project announced in Ukraine

Ukraine renewables firm DNC Energy intends to build a 25-MW biomass power plant in the Kyiv region.

The facility will run on woodchips, cornstover, sunflower and wheat straw and will use direct combustion, a "Wellons" boiler and a Siemens steam turbine. It is planned to be up and ready to run by November 2016.

The national power company is required to buy all power produced by green plants.

DNC has identified eight sites it wants to buy, in line with plans to surpass 200 MW of generation capacity by 2020.
