Gross efficiency of steam turbine plant depends strongly on share of heat energy produced. If this is zero electrical efficiency, for plants up to 20 kWe is up to 27%. For the other cases are known following figures: If 10% of total produced energy is used as heat energy, overall efficiency is 35%. If 30% of total produced energy is used as heat energy, overall efficiency is 46%. If 50% of total produced energy is used as heat energy, overall efficiency is 58%. If 70% of total produced energy is used as heat energy, overall efficiency is 68%. But, it should be considered that the marketing of heat energy is rather complicated, only really used can be paid, and the price of this energy is up to three times lower than electric energy, if the feed-in tariff is applied.

Heating Calculation of heating power in is based on providing indoor temperature e.g. +20 C, if the outside temperature is 18 C. Taking into account the reduced thermal power during the nights and the temperature change during the day and heating period, the average energy needed makes commonly 25% of maximal heating power. This is not a big problem if li uid or gaseous fossil fuels are used, due to relatively simple control of power. If solid biomass CHP plant is used, control is much more difficult and energy losses considerably higher. That is why combination of solid biomass and li uid/gaseous fuel should be applied. If the power of biomass part covers 50% of calculated plant power (Fig. 16 left), the average load of heat energy is 50%, for average climate conditions in the region, and additionally about 7% of fossil fuel is needed. For the share of 40% of thermal power based on biomass, average load is 63%, and the percentage of additional fossil fuel energy makes 13% (Fig. 16 right).

Four examples of biomass CHP plants, two for technological utilization of produced heat energy (T1 and T2) and two with heat energy utilization for space heating purposes (H1 and H2) were elaborated: T1 is a CHP plant based on a steam turbine process with electric and thermal power of 3.05 MW and 24.60 MW, respectively. The fuel is soybean straw, annual consumption 60,000 tonnes. The data for this CHP plant are taken from the pre-project of a CHP plant of a local soybean processing company. T2 is a biogas plant with electric and thermal power 540 kW and 680 kW, respectively. For the annual production of 700,000 m3 biogas 4,000 tonnes of maize silage, 300 tonnes of manure and vegetable waste are used. The data for this example are taken from the feasibility study of a dried vegetable producer. H1 plant represents a biogas based CHP facility with electric and thermal power 440 kW and 560 kW, respectively. The biogas is generated from on site produced manure. The data of this example are taken from pre-project of livestock farm. H2 is a CHP plant based on ORC process with electric and thermal capacity of 5,000 kW and 19,000 kW, respectively. It uses 32,500 tonnes of soybean straw as fuel. This example is an imaginary CHP plant for a small community and data from literature were used.

Obviously, use of maize silage for anaerobic digestion, with intermixture of animal manure, is not profitable. If there is need to use co-substrate in a biogas CHP plant, other types of biomass should be considered. The breakeven electricity price varies between 5.9 and 18.6 c (kWh)-1. Based on this, the granted price of electricity from solid biomass should be in the range between 7 and 12 c (kWh)-1, and 1116 c (kWh)-1 for biogas. The price of electricity primarily depends on the fuel price, capacity (electric and heat power) of the plant. The annual operating hours and the share of marketable heat energy.
