WegscheidEntrenco
Bioenergy Solutions engineered in Germany
Regenerative energy supply with biomass cogeneration plants.
We develop turnkey systems that provide a sustainable energy supply from biogenic residues for electricity, heating and cooling.
We turn innovative trends into sustainable, economical solutions.
Our biomass cogeneration units (CHP) use solid, renewable fuels such as wood chips, wood pellets and briquettes (pellets).
This saves you energy costs, makes you independent of fossil fuels and
make an important contribution to climate protection by using renewable raw materials — around the clock.
By using other biogenic residues, we are already developing our technology beyond pure wood power generation.
OUR TURNKEY BIOMASS CHP PLANTS
Our product range consists of three module types: 50 kWel for wood pellets (WE-50P) and for wood chips (WE-50C) as well as 135 kWel for wood chips and briquettes (WE-135C; thermal output always approximately twice as high as the electrical output). All systems produce wood gas, which is used in a CHP unit to generate electricity and heat.
We thus cover the most common requirements in many of our customers' applications.
Turnkey complete plants from 50 kWel to 2 MWel are configured according to customer requirements on the basis of our standard modules. These complete plants usually also include the complete peripheral technology, such as delivery, drying, screening and the complete conveyor technology.
50 kW Pellets (WE-50P)
Fuel: wood pellets.
Rated power: 50 kW electric and 120 kW thermal.
Particularly suitable for hotels, farms, food industry and public facilities with local and district heating.
50 kW Wood Chips (WE-50C)
Fuel: wood chips.
Rated power: 50 kW electric and 120 kW thermal.
Particularly suitable for wood processing industries, such as sawmills, furniture manufacturers and numerous other industries with access to already dried wood chips.
Peripheral equipment for drying can be supplied if required.
135 kW Wood Chips, Briquettes (WE-135C)
Fuel: wood chips
Rated power: 135 kW electric and 266 kW thermal.
Particularly suitable for forestry operations and wood processing, hotels (also with spa), breweries, dairies, market gardens, as well as for heating networks. In addition to wood chips, this plant can also be operated with wood briquettes (pressed pellets from wood residues).
The reasons why a biomass CHP system is the right solution for your company
The output of our biomass CHP units is optimally tailored to the requirements of a wide range of company sizes and sectors. Thanks to the simultaneous production of electricity and heat, the combined heat and power plant can both cover the company’s own requirements and be used to feed into the public electricity and/or heat grid. There is the possibility of fixed feed-in tariffs or direct sales with interesting market opportunities.
Independence from fossil fuels
By using biomass, a company can operate independently of fossil fuels. In this way, you simultaneously reduce risks to your energy supply and increase sustainability.
Lower energy costs
By switching to biomass CHP units, you can avoid the rising cost of fossil energy. With our biomass CHP units, you can save up to 30 percent on energy costs.
Contribution to climate protection
By using wood as biomass, the raw material cycle is CO₂-neutral. In addition, we use residual and waste wood. Due to the high efficiency of up to 85 percent, our CHP units have a lower fuel requirement.
Who is a biomass CHP system suitable for?
A biomass CHP system with wood-fired power supply is particularly worthwhile for companies that require large amounts of thermal energy on a constant basis for their operations – even in summer. Our CHP units generate electricity that can be used for the company’s own needs or supplied to the public grid. At the same time, the CHP units produce heat, e.g. for drying materials, for heating purposes or for the production of cooling.
Our equipment is suitable for the following companies and industries, including:
- Hotels, spas and wellness resorts
- Agricultural enterprises
- Food industry
- Shopping centers
- Wood processing industry, such as sawmills, carpentries, furniture manufacturers
- Public facilities, such as schools, hospitals or cultural institutions
- Residential complexes with high electricity and heat consumption
- Properties with high electricity and heat consumption

Our sales team will be happy to provide you with further information or answer any questions you may have.
CHP plant in operation at Shimonishi power plant!
Three WE-50-P CHP plants were put into operation in Japan by Oki Green Power LLC. Together with Mr. Takeshi Izawa, the Representative Partner of Oki Green Power LLC, we are pleased about this important milestone. Mr. Izawa emphasizes the importance of the project for the creation of jobs in the region and the promotion of decentralized energy sources.
We are proud to have made a further contribution to sustainable energy supply with these plants and to have successfully supported another customer in the implementation of its energy concept.
