500kW Biowatt Biomass Power Project in Taichung: Advancing Taiwan's Green Energy Transition

Background

Taiwan is currently accelerating its shift towards a decentralized and resilient energy grid under its "Net-Zero by 2050" roadmap. In industrial hubs like Taichung, enterprises are seeking sustainable alternatives to offset rising electricity costs and reduce carbon footprints. The Tuxing (Jiayuan) Project is a flagship initiative in this region, designed to transform local wood chip waste into clean, grid-connected power.

Pioneering Solution

To meet the specific space and efficiency requirements of the Taiwan market, Powermax deployed its proprietary Biowatt series—a compact, modular biomass gasification system.

The core of this solution includes:

￭   High-Efficiency Gasification Unit: Optimized for consistent syngas production from wood chips.

￭   Dual-Genset Configuration: The system features two sets of 300kW gas engine generator sets. This 600kW total capacity ensures high operational flexibility and redundancy, delivering a stable 500kW net output to the electricity grid.

￭   Advanced Control System: Specifically calibrated to meet the stringent grid-connection standards required in the Taichung area.

Project Status: Installing

Following a successful Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) where the system met all performance benchmarks, the equipment has arrived on-site. Our engineering team is currently in the installing phase, ensuring every component—from the Biowatt gasifier to the dual 300kW gensets—is perfectly synchronized for long-term baseload operation.

Key Customer Benefits

￭   Grid Stability: The dual-genset design allows for easier maintenance without total system shutdown, ensuring a reliable power supply.

￭   Resource Efficiency: By utilizing localized wood chips, the project reduces transport emissions and turns waste into a valuable energy asset.

￭   Compact Footprint: The Biowatt series is ideal for Taiwan’s industrial zones where land use is at a premium.

￭   Policy Alignment: Supports local sustainability goals and enhances the client’s corporate social responsibility (CSR) profile in the Taichung community.
