BIOFIT Digital Support tools
The interactive Digital Support Tools (DSTs) are designed for industries to determine the benefits of bioenergy retrofitting. The DSTs are based on the BIOFIT case studies, and they represent each industrial sector involved in the project (production of 1st generation biofuels, pulp & paper, fossil power and CHP and for fossil refineries). The DSTs focus on the techno-economic evaluation of the retrofit concepts, using the performance indicators of the case studies. The user interface allows modification of the key parameters of the retrofit concept.
The Digital Support tools will be published online on this webpage upon becoming available.
Retrofits in district heat production
The DST is based on the BIOFIT case study of Sölvesborgs Energi och Vatten in Sweden. In the case study, fossil oil is replaced by bio-oils in a peak-load district heating plant. Click on the link below to open the tool. Please refer to the case description in the BIOFIT case study section.
