Abstract: Microcogeneration utilizing organic Rankine cycle technology has seen challenges in commercialization, despite its vast application potential. The market is large, but so is the competition from standard boilers. This was also the case for a previously developed biomass-fired 50 kWth 2 kWe unit intended for large buildings and small industries. Therefore, a scaled-up 120 kWth and 6.2 kWe unit has been proposed with better commercialization prospects.
