15 April 2004 - Marks Värme AB, a municipality-owned heat and power utility in Kinna about 60 km from Gothenburg, has chosen Wärtsilä Biopower Oy as the main supplier of a new biofuelled power plant. The utility's main function is to provide district heat. The new power plant will be taken into use at the beginning of 2005.

Wärtsilä Bio Power will build the new Bio Power plant beside the existing Assbergsverket power plant in Skene. Together with the existing district heating plant the new bio power plant will supply district heat to 800 customers. Electricity production will correspond to the household electricity need of 2500 detached houses.

The new power plant will generate 3.5 MWe of electricity and 16 MWth of heat. Some of the heat will also be supplied to nearby industrial facilities. The bio power plant will be fuelled by wood waste, mainly bark and sawdust, from sawmills.
