On June 25, 2026, a Wood Gas Open Day was held near Glasgow, Scotland, at a 1 MWel wood gas power plant operated by Ecogenesis Ltd and hosted together with Spanner Re². The event provided a practical opportunity to experience wood gasification technology in live operation.
Overall interest in wood gas CHP plants was very positive. The audience included a well-balanced mix of experienced plant operators and professionals who were new to the technology, creating an open and engaging atmosphere for discussion.
Live operation and practical insights
A key highlight was the live operation of the plant. Seeing the system under real conditions gave visitors valuable insights into performance, operational stability, and practical application in day-to-day use.
Throughout the day, discussions were dynamic and hands-on. Exchange with the plant operator and technology experts covered technical aspects, operational experience, and potential applications across different projects.
Strong interest in after-sales and applications
In addition to the technology itself, there was noticeable interest in after-sales topics. Several inquiries focused on service concepts, long-term support, and performance optimization, underlining the importance of reliable lifecycle solutions in plant operation.
Overall, the Open Day marked a successful event with strong interest in wood gas CHP technology and its real-world applications. It also highlighted the growing relevance of decentralized energy solutions based on biomass.
We would like to thank all participants for their interest, the valuable discussions, and the positive and collaborative atmosphere that made this event a success.
