OPEC Grudziądz implements pioneering straw-powered steam boiler

OPEC Grudziądz has implemented a pioneering project in Poland involving a steam boiler that utilizes loose straw as fuel. The installation has been operational since December, providing approximately 25% of the annual heat demand for Grudziądz.

According to company president Marek Dec, the boiler is currently performing at 105% of its annual plan, with an efficiency rate of 88.6%, which exceeds the original project assumptions. The project is supported by funding from the National Fund for Environmental Protection and Water Management (NFOŚiGW).
