Werner, Thank you for that information. Do you have any price info to match to the units?
My interests are actually at the smaller end of the line, such as 8 to 22 kWe. Still looking for some indication of the market size in areas where the value of the electricity can make units economically sustainable. Paul Doc / Dr TLUD / Paul S. Anderson, PhD Exec.

Here some more information from Spanner mainly about some larger installations. Again working without problems and very little maintenance.

Does that refer to the Canadian link that you provided that mentions each unit producing 45 kWe and 109 kWthermal? I assume that is maximum sustained output, right? Are those units capable of operation at 20 – 25 kWe and still be efficient? And I did not see the price. What is the size of the market for units of that size? Have they reached 2% or 20% or 60%of the market? That needs to be considered. I think that the issues will boil down to costs and ease of use and APPROPRIATE SIZE. There will be several “markets” to be satisfied by different products. Paul Doc / Dr TLUD / Paul S. Anderson, PhD Exec.

There are now several manufacturers of wood gasification generators in Europe the US and China. I established connections to the German company with most of experience, 5500 units installed and over 20 000 000 hours of operation, trouble free. Here an installation in Canada. https://www.canadianbiomassmagazine.ca/news/green-gas-kwadacha-nation-installs-wood-gasification-system-6699 Here the US All Power Lab, http://www.allpowerlabs.com/ Why are you looking in all the wrong places. Go to the proven products, install it and use it. Then if necessary improve it. Way less time consuming and investment. Werner Rhein Another Solution Consulting.

Are there some key links? Low-population, forested high latitude areas (less sunlight) without easy boat or train access would seem to be a major geographic region of need. Diesel generators seem to dominate the power generation. What sources confirm these statements, how big is the problem (expressed as numbers of gensets at what sizes), and what is being done about it, and by whom? (Canadians, please reply with your info.) This should be a significant topic for this Listserv. Paul Doc / Dr TLUD / Paul S. Anderson, PhD Exec.
