Wood terminal in Karelia, Russia.

MHG Systems and associate Feedstock Optimum Ltd to develop an economically viable and transparent forest fuel production concept in Russia. Concept will be piloted in the forest concessions in  the Republic of Karelia and the Leningrad Oblast.

Project Manager of Feedstock Optimum Ltd,  Mr. Jarmo Ylinen tells that  entirely proper transport technologies are not available in the trucks or rail from Russia, because the Finnish transportation stock there can not operate as efficiently for example due to different road legislation and poor condition of roads. "The ultimate aim of the project is a transparent concept for a full scale deployment and availability of wood energy in a significant increase in particular power plants in South-Eastern Finland and Karelia, shortly to rise to new power plants and pellet mills," continues Mr. Ylinen.

MHG Systems´ MHG Bioenergy ERP –Service had a great success in IT-Company  Logica´s  Global Innovation Venture Partner final competition in Stockholm last week.  MHG´s service concept was ranked top ten from 650 global innovation proposals.

MHG Systems has been chosen to represent Finland in the international final of the IT service company Logica’s innovation competition. The company’s innovative solution is used to manage biomass supply chain and to monitor its quality, which helps energy companies to increase the use of biomass as an energy source as required by new directives.

Using MHG Systems, energy companies and biofuel suppliers get detailed information regarding the quality, quantity, energy contents and origin of the biomass.

“Our typical client is a power plant, whose procurement processes are based on the raw materials’ standard quality. Composition of biomass – reed canary grass, wood chips, peat – varies and it contains a significant amount of water, which can dramatically interfere with the production process,” managing director Seppo Huurinainen of MHG Systems explains. “We can offer our mutual clients an operative solution service in order to optimise the production of biomass, and Logica, as an international agent, can hold a key position there to present the Finnish innovation to the rest of the world,” Heikki Tiihonen of Logica states.
