Innovative renewable energy solutions from Woodfields Energy

Meeting All Your Power Needs With Woodfields Energy

Woodfields Energy is an innovative and exciting energy company. Woodfields specialises in equipment and processes that support green energy generation. Their products allow environmentally friendly energy to be generated using material that would otherwise be thrown away. This can help us boost energy production and reduce waste at the same time.

ORC Modules

Woodfields
Energy is best known for its ORC, or Organic Rankine Cycle, modules.
These incredible machines can generate energy using a range of underused fuels.
The machines are based on a fairly simple principle. They work by heating
liquid until it evaporates and turns into a gas. This gas is then used to power
an engine connected to a generator. When the generator is powered by the gas,
it creates electricity.

The heat used to drive an ORC system can come from a variety of sources including biomass boilers and gasifiers and waste heat. Waste heat sources commonly used for ORC Modules include:

• Rejected heat from power plants
• landfill gas
• Bio oil
• Natural gas

Green energy production

In 2011, the UK government launched the
Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI). The incentive rewards companies and individuals
that install renewable heat generation equipment in non-domestic buildings. The
incentive has resulted in a surge in demand for systems that generate power and
heat from biomass.

ORC modules are ideal for the Renewable
Heat Incentive. Using an ORC unit in combination with a biomass boiler is an
excellent way to derive maximum financial benefit from the RHI scheme. As a
result, demand for the Woodfields Energy ORC units has grown quickly in recent
years.

The company offers a range of ORC systems, suitable for a variety of purposes including heat recovery, primary power generation, low temperature power generation and heat generation. Woodfields Energy has also developed ORC systems that can be safely used at sea. These can be installed on cruise ships to provide green energy for a boat and its passengers. This range of systems allows businesses to find the module that best suits their requirements.

Applications

There are a number of applications for
ORC systems. They can be used to generate power using heat recovered from
industrial processes. This allows factories and manufacturers to make the most
of their resources and waste less energy than ever before. Heat can also be
recovered from engines and even from geothermal sources.

ORC systems can also be integrated into thermodynamic solar plants and used to generate power from biomass. The wide range of applications offered by ORC modules shows just how versatile the system is.

Waste Pyrolysis

As well as ORC modules, Woodfields Energy
has also developed a range of waste pyrolysis equipment. Waste pyrolysis is the
process by which waste is burned in a controlled, inert atmosphere in order to
create useful fuels. Projects the company has worked on include plants that
turn waste tyres and waste plastic into fuel.
