Preventing, detecting and managing self-heating events in wood pellet storage is one of the major challenges of the biomass industry. In September, the Wood Pellet Association of Canada (WPAC), FutureMetrics and Ørsted collaborated to host a Safe Wood Pellet Storage Workshop in Copenhagen, Denmark, to address these challenges. The two-day event kicked off with a half-day tour of Ørsted’s Bioenergy Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS) installation at the Asnæs combined heat and power (CHP) plant. Attendees received a firsthand look at CHP technology and Ørsted’s approach to carbon capture, setting the stage for the technical discussions that followed. The second day’s workshop included expert-led sessions focusing on real-world case studies, technical insights, and collaborative solutions. …The workshop is the first in a series of activities to ensure continuity and build an international community committed to reducing risk and enhancing operational resilience. Workshop presentations are available on pellet.org.
