ventured into wood gasifier technology in 2007. Together with our first
customers, we successfully brought this exciting technology to market and
have installed more than 700 Biomass CHP globally.

We are convinced that „wood power“ in German “Holz-Kraft” will play a

significant part in the future of Renewable Energies. The technology generates
power and heat from the domestic and renewable resource of wood, regardless
of weather. With wood power, you can take care of your energy supply by yourself,
and become independent from big corporations as well as fossil energy imports.
We offer tailor-made complete solutions and know-how generated from more
than 20,000,000 hours of operation. Get into partnership with us to ensure your
business has a sustainable energy future.

 BIOMASS CHP FROM RE²
The Re2 Biomass CHP generates electricity and heat according to the principle of combined
heat and power (CHP). The unit consists of a wood gasifier and the combined heat and power
unit (CHP). The generated electricity will either be consumed by the owner or sold into the
grid. The heat generated during the process can be used for the heating of buildings, for
drying grain and wood or in district heating systems.

20,000,000
HOURS EXPERIENCE
Biomass CHP from Re² is built on the experience gained from over 20,000,000
operating hours. Our Biomass CHP units have proved themselves all over the world
and show that sustainability and economy can be achieved simultaneously.
Our vast experience and technology development as a pioneer in this field make Re²
the leading manufacturer of Biomass CHP.

Our company was established in 2004 as a business unit called „Renewable Energies“
of the Spanner Group. With over 80 qualified and dedicated employees in Neufahrn in
Germany, we constantly progress the optimization of our pioneering energy
technology and always strive towards our main goal: To make Renewable Energies
competitive!

 YOUR PATH TO HEAT &
ENERGY INDEPENDANCE
In the field of bioenergy, Re2’s HKA 10 is revolutionary. With 9 kWel and
22 kWth, it is one of the smallest Biomass CHP of its kind.
The wood gasifier and the CHP are housed in one casing. This saves space
and makes the system particularly compact. Another great advantage is that
the HKA 10 offers the flexibility of using various different types of wood.
It operates with natural wood chips, as well as pellets and briquettes.
It is developed for self-supply and ideal for businesses with high demands
of electricity and heat. It operates with high efficiency, is environmentally
friendly and makes you independent of fossil fuels.

„
Conventional energy production with the
negative consequences, cost dependencies
and the central energy policy, have made me
consider other options. With the HKA 10 we
generate electricity and heat at any time with
our own wood. We are independent and that is
a good feeling.
