2 OUTLINE About Wisewood Energy Biomass Energy Basics Biomass Thermal Energy Technologies Fuel Delivery and Storage

3 ABOUT WISEWOOD ENERGY Design/Build: Biomass energy installations including complete system engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) Technical Consulting: Feasibility studies, financial modelling, and project management Project Development: Thermal energy supply from investor and community-owned thermal energy generation assets Territory: OR, WA, CA, ID, AK, MT

4 Western Washington Wood Energy and Forest Biomass Workshop BIOMASS ENERGY BASICS

5 MODERN BIOMASS HEAT & CHP Efficient: high conversion efficiency (>85%) Clean: very low particulate, NOx and CO emissions Economical: cost effective, fuel prices lower than oil, propane and electricity Sustainable: CO2 neutral, regionally abundant, compliments sustainable forestry Socially Acceptable: smaller scale lends itself to greater social acceptance

6 EFFICIENT Conversion Efficiency as % 85% 50% Cellulosic Ethanol Biomass Heat and CHP 25% Biopower (no heat capture)

7 EFFICIENT Development of emissions of Austrian Biomass Boilers, measured by the federal agency for agricultural engineering Wieselburg (BLT)

8 CLEAN Development of emissions of Austrian Biomass Boilers, measured by the federal agency for agricultural engineering Wieselburg (BLT)

9 CLEAN 1.6 Particulate Emissions (lbs/mmbtu) x cleaner than EPAcertified woodstoves Very Low Emissions Possible 0 EPA Certified Woodstove Pellet Stove Modern Pellet Boiler (no flue gas cleaning) Gas Furnace Biomass CHP (with flue gas cleaning)

10 ECONOMICAL $30.00 Fuel Cost Comparison $/MMBtu (2016) $25.00 $26.37 $25.06 $20.00 $20.69 Gas is cheap, but most rural locations depend on Propane, Oil and Electricity $15.00 $12.13 Rich in biomass energy resources! $10.00 $8.42 $5.00 $3.60 $1.30 $- Electricity (retail) Heating oil (retail) Propane (retail) Wood pellets (bulk) Natural gas (retail) Forest Biomass (50% mc) Mill Residuals (20% mc)

11 SOCIALLY ACCEPTABLE Scale Liquid Fuels Large-scale applications may struggle with public perception Biomass Power CHP Biomass Heat
