Wood Energy and Biomass: valorization by MS BOIS<\/h1>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

MS BOIS’s Energy division valorizes all of our sawmill by-products<\/b> (sawdust, bark, chips). Our group’s objective is simple: waste nothing from the raw material. <\/p>

<\/p>

By directly processing our own biomass, we produce a French energy resource that is high-quality and high-performance. This expertise is built around two industrial activities: green energy production (cogeneration) and wood pellet manufacturing<\/strong>. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Cogeneration for our energy independence<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Cogeneration simultaneously produces green electricity and heat from our bark. The electricity is directly fed into the national grid.

The heat, meanwhile, is recovered to power the dryers in our sawmills. This same heat enables constant drying of sawdust before it is transformed into pellets. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
