1,000 kW of power
Installation of at our facilities in Ökoenergie Schwarzau
VEE is currently carrying out one of its largest projects to date at Ökoenergie Schwarzau GmbH (Bioenergie Bucklige Welt GmbH). A complete wp3 series solution is being manufactured and installed at the site—consisting of a wood chip dryer, a direct-current gasifier, and a combined heat and power plant. These systems enable the efficient generation of electricity and heat from regionally available biomass, thereby making an important contribution to a decentralized and sustainable energy supply.
With a total output of 1,000 kWel in the future, this will be a high-performance plant designed for cost-effective continuous operation. Our systems average over 8,000 operating hours per year, demonstrating that wood gas technology is not only environmentally friendly but also economically viable. All systems are manufactured at our facility in Bürserberg— developed and produced in Austria. Our assembly team then ensures professional on-site installation and commissioning. With projects of this magnitude, VEE is taking another step toward scalable, regional energy solutions based on modern wood gasification technology.
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.

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.
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.

Electricty and heat from biomass
Total solution – top performance for our customers
- Wood chips drying with screening and oversize grain shredder
- Direct current gasifier and CHP adapted to wood gas
- Waste disposal solution
- Service and remote maintenance, spare parts management
- Warranty services
Our new wp3 series Wood gasifier with CHP has a new design and, in addition to the technological innovations, is even more user-friendly. In the CHP unit, the gas engine with 4-valve technology provides higher electrical efficiency and the larger exhaust gas heat exchanger improves thermal efficiency.
VEE ISO 9001 certification
Manufacturer certification
We are pleased to announce that we have successfully obtained ISO 9001:2015 certification.
Development, manufacture, and implementation of synthesis gas plants and wood chip drying facilities.
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.
