juwi Bio GmbH<br />
Besides agricultural and industrial biogas plants the juwi group<br />
also constructs biomass heating power and wood chip heating<br />
plants in different dimensions.<br />
With an annual turnover of about 600 million EUr in 2009 and<br />
more than 900 employees juwi is one of the leading renewable<br />
energy companies.<br />
as an experienced project developer juwi is offering the whole<br />
line-up of regenerative energy projects. juwi bio is taking care<br />
of safeguarding an industry’s competitiveness and the raw material<br />
supply as well as planning, getting permissions, financing,<br />
realization up to the project management.<br />
a main pillar for juwi bio is biogas plants on nawaro basis.<br />
several modern plants with a magnitude of 500 KW have been<br />
realized so far in connection with a good heating concept.<br />
as the number of biogas facilities in Germany is constantly<br />
rising, good locations with a reliable supply of substrates and<br />
a convincing concept for energy recovery will be harder to<br />
find. That is why juwi focuses on project development of biogas<br />
plants with a feed into the gas grid.<br />
Farmers participating are able to develop a second income. juwi<br />
has designed participation models, for example a co-op.<br />
Benefiting from juwi’s experience, authority and different participation<br />
models farmers are part of a well-knit community.<br />
Utilities profit from purchasing ecologically produced biomethane.<br />
It is turned into electric energy in a block heat and<br />
power plant, where all lost heat can be used.<br />

KWs saaT aG<br />
Companies.and.Market.Players.<br />
KWs saaT aG is one of the world’s leading companies in plant<br />
breeding, with activities in about 70 countries with more than<br />
40 subsidiaries and affiliated companies. The product range<br />
includes more than 250 seed varieties for sugar beet, maize, cereals,<br />
oil seeds and potatoes. KWs conducted business in family<br />
since 1856 in an independent and sustainable manner.<br />
With research, breeding and the production of seeds which<br />
yield increasingly stronger results, KWs stands at the beginning<br />
of the value-added chain. Bioenergy takes a very special place in<br />
renewable energy, as plants represent an almost inexhaustible<br />
source of food and raw materials. KWs recognised this early and<br />
designed its own breeding programme for energy plants.<br />
KWs relies on whole plant usage and on the production of bio-<br />
gas energy, which is probably the most profitable and efficient<br />
form of bioenergy generation in farming at the moment. Its<br />
potential to yield is crucial for the profitability of energy plants<br />
in particular. The increase in biomass yields is therefore at the<br />
centre of our research activities for energy plants. When breeding<br />
to optimise the gas amount per hectare, the increase in total<br />
dry mass yields is crucial, in contrary to breeding for consumption<br />
or sugar creation. The highest energy yields per surface<br />
unit are achieved when fermenting biomass from whole plants<br />
to biogas.<br />
The KWs energy plant programme for biogas generation<br />
currently includes the cultures of maize, sugar beet, sorghum<br />
and rye.<br />
