Erection of new boiler house
Installation was finished in December 2000.
Supplier of boiler house equipment was Dutch company KARA Energy Systems.
Building works were performed by local company Valmieras SCO centrs.

Securing of biomassInitially agreement on wood fuel supply was concluded between LBE and biggest local wood processing company LINDEKS
The contract term is 15 years
Payments for the biomass were made according to produced MWh of heat
Fuel moisture 40-60% on wet base
On 2005 Lindeks reduced amount of output
![Page 12: CASE STUDY OF FUEL SWITCH IN THE LUDZA BOILER HOUSE](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050911/56816367550346895dd43ea7/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
12
Securing of biomass
Payment for delivered biomass now is made per loose cubic meter.
Fuel moisture 20-55% on wet base.
For reduction of the risk related to only one supplier, we have agreed that part of biomass is supplied by alternative suppliers – the biggest plywood producer “Latvijas Finieris” and other local companies.
