Recal SA
1 x wp2.150 Wood gas CHP plant new in operation
since March 2026
Recal SA – Regional heating network in Disentis, Switzerland
Recal SA operates a regionally anchored energy system based on renewable resources in the tourist resort of Disentis/Mustér. At its heart is a heating network that supplies almost 200 properties, including major customers such as the Benedictine monastery, the Catrina Resort and other commercial and public facilities.
The new VEE synthesis gas plant is a targeted further development of the existing system. The wood gas CHP technology enables the combined production of electricity and heat from regionally available resources. Integration into the existing district heating network creates a scalable energy system that makes renewable energy available all year round and further reduces dependence on fossil fuels. Recal SA stands for a regional and systemic energy supply with direct added value for the economy, environment and society.

From wood to energy source
How wood gas works
Wood gas (synthesis gas) offers a reliable, decentralized energy supply with electricity and heat from renewable biomass. On our new information page, we explain the basics, the technical process and the benefits of wood gas.
Interested in a solution for your company or municipality? We will be happy to advise you on the planning, implementation and operation of our systems.
New hall for plant production
We started the new year in new premises.
The move to our new production hall is complete. The expanded space creates more capacity for the development and production of our wood gas systems. In addition, two new indoor cranes from SUMMER Krantechnik are in operation. They enable safe and efficient handling of heavy components.
60,000 operating hours
Reliable performance in continuous operation
Our system in a timber plant recently exceeded the 60,000 operating hours mark. The consistently stable running time shows how reliable and robust our wood gas systems are in daily use.

VEE Key Words
Generation of electric power and heat from biomass
Our technology as a contribution to a sustainable energy future.
We focus on regionalization. Decentralized energy generation creates independence from central systems and secures our basic needs for heat and electricity. Short transport routes reduce emissions and the added value remains in the region.
