General
Strengths Strong local
commitment Resources from
members (fuel, labor) Benefits to local
community Shared risks
Challenges Usually learning by
doing – lack of expertise
Easy to stay as a passive member
Locality limits growth (unless more customers in the same community)

Vakkalämpö (2)
Members 3 farmers and a local forestry society
(association of forest owners) Forestry society gives forest management
advise to forest owners and assists in forest management operations and in wood sales may organize harvesting operations
Fuel supply Forestry society supplies 80 % of the
fuel, farmers 20 % Mechanized harvesting chains Mainly whole trees from cleanings and
thinnings (= low value wood) Both forestry society and farmers
employ entrepreneurs for fuel supply operations

Vakkalämpö (3)
Business New contract for plant operation
and fuel supply each year between the municipality and co-operative
Fuel suppliers are paid according to the energy content of the supplied woodfuel (€/MWh)
Vakkalämpö is paid according to the amount of energy (MWh) supplied to the municipality
Members gain a separate payment for running the plant (paid by the hour)
Chipping with a tractor powered chipper (Kesla)

General
Strengths Usually enough
resources ($, £, €) Business oriented,
experienced Can operate in a large
area
Challenges Lack of local
commitment – have to win local trust in small communities
High demands for profit
SME heating might be too small for them

Vapo (2)
Small and medium sized heating business Network of local heating plants
Invested by Vapo or the customer Several business models
Turnkey, Vapo in charge of the whole supply chain of heat (like a heating entrepreneur) – Vapo can buy old heating facilities
Heating and fuel supply outsourced to Vapo – Vapo rents the plant and network
Fuel supply outsourced to Vapo Franchising
Fuel supply Wood pellets from own mills Other solid biomass fuels from their own supply chains Use contractors and thus avoid investments in own
machines

Large companies and bigger SMEs
Cost effectiveness Use a subcontracting model
Effective network No own capital in machines
Use their own expertise in organizing business and contracting Can effectively add value to bulk products and optimize the
use of raw materials (e.g. timber, wood fuel) Operate in the whole country and can compete effectively
