reliability and costs? This is open to interpretation, however the author suggests that this number should be at least FIVE (5) units (an additional precaution should be that at least one unit is operating in Canada), i.e., if a technology provider has five units operating in a reliable manner then there should be sufficient data to provide some confidence and also sufficient cost data to allow preparation of a proper financial analysis. In this report this will be the criteria used to assess whether a technology can be considered commercially viable for application in remote communities. This does not mean that other technologies are not feasible, rather only that they are not “commercially proven” for that application. In some instances technologies which do not meet this criterion may be selected, and there may be good reasons for doing so, i.e. being at the leading edge of a technology can result in significant benefits, however the project should then be considered a pilot or demonstration project and will likely incur significant development costs and require considerable engineering/research support from the supplier. This is acceptable if advancing the technology is the stated objective of the project but if the objective is to provide heat and power at the lowest possible cost then screening criteria as discussed here are necessary. Finally, having a number of installed and operating units greater than five does not automatically mean that the technology is “turnkey ready”, especially in remote communities where local support may be minimal. Any assessment of suitability must include consideration of the requirements for normal operation of the “proven”, i.e. maintenance and parts replacement schedules, feedstock restrictions etc. There are numerous small-scale biomass CHP technologies under development and the most promising are reviewed here on the basis of the criteria set in the previous section, those with over five operating units in a reliable manner are deemed “Yukon viable” whereas those below this guideline are deemed “under development”. Technologies without at least one operating system (even at laboratory scale) are not considered. Four basic technology types are considered in this report: Gasification and Internal Combustion Engine; Organic Rankine Cycle; Brayton Cycle and Stirling Engine. A fifth, Fast Pyrolysis for production of bio-oil followed by combustion in an Internal Combustion or Turbine Engine, is not included as this concept has not been reliably demonstrated. Canada is home to the leading companies in the area of Fast Pyrolysis: Ensyn Technologies, ABRI Tech, Agritherm and Pyrovac. Ensyn has worked with Manitoba Hydro and CanmetENERGY to demonstrate bio-oil combustion as a replacement for fuel oil in furnaces but this has not yet resulted in a demonstration of engine-based combustion. Overseas, BTG Group PV in the Netherlands, Pytec and KIT in Germany and VTT/Metso/UPM are the leading groups in attempts at commercializing fast pyrolysis. Some testing has taken place with combustion in gensets, however it has generally used heavily fractionated or solvent-diluted bio-oil and cannot be considered commercial at the current time. The following is a listing of the leading suppliers of small-scale CHP grouped according to technology. Companies which can be considered “Yukon-viable” based on the above described criteria are shown in bold. Note that not all of those shown in bold are necessarily recommended as there are other criteria which must also be included in the assessment.
