Centrais de Biomassa do Norte consists of two biomass plants of 15 Mwe, which incinerate waste wood (pine and eucalyptus chips) each in a biomass boiler to produce superheated steam, which drives a steam turbine to produce electricity that is sold to the grid. The plants are located in rural areas of the municipalities of Viseu and Fundão, in northern Portugal and will be approximately 100km apart. The construction phase will last 24 months, with COD expected in June 2019.
