Automated pilot silo project for supplying biomass (forest chips)

The Operational Group is developing a project to solve the limitation posed by the distribution of forest chips and to optimize the Celrà production center.

The aim is to design and plan an automated silo to supply forest chips that will enable a reduction in transport costs beyond the current radial distribution area.

Improvements in management and logistics contribute to a significant reduction in CO2 emissions into the atmosphere. Furthermore, the project provides a consolidated and stable way of consuming forest chips, which makes the sector more dynamic and puts a product that until now had little value on a par with energy.

The project also helps to stimulate rural areas, since this is where the raw materials are found.
