Diakonie de La Tour: Reversepowerplant energy self-sufficiency in Waiern

Diakonie de La Tour in Waiern is consistently committed to energy self-sufficiency and sustainability. In addition to the existing biomass heating plant, a SYNCRAFT Reversepowerplant expands Reversepowerplant energy infrastructure and simultaneously generates electricity, heat, and high-quality biochar (Green Carbon) from regional wood chips. The energy obtained in this way supplies numerous local facilities—from commercial kitchens to hospitals—and strengthens independence from the public power grid while reducing CO₂ emissions.

Continuous development of the energy infrastructure

A biomass heating plant has been supplying heat to the Waiern site since 1998. Following extensive modernization in 2017, the existing infrastructure has now been further developed in a targeted manner: A SYNCRAFT Reversepowerplant the plant and enables the combined generation of electricity, heat, and biochar (Green Carbon) from regional wood chips. This creates an integrated energy system that makes efficient use of existing resources and sustainably increases security of supply.

"With SYNCRAFT, we have a technologically leading partner at our side who not only implemented our project competently, but also continues to support us with valuable expertise. This strengthens Diakonie's organizational resilience and sends a strong signal for a sustainable, regional energy future."
