Valmet to sharpen its focus on biomass based energy production business

In Finland, Metso’s Pulp, Paper and Power business, the future Valmet, offers biomass, waste and coal based heat and power generation solutions in its energy business. In the field of biomass based energy production solutions, Valmet will sharpen its focus on the product portfolio.

In the future, Valmet’s offering will cover boiler islands, small power plants based on bubbling fluidized bed and BioGrate combustion technologies, and large heating plants based on BFB and pellet technologies. As a result of this process, Valmet will divest its small-scale heating plant business and related services operations in Finland, Russia and Sweden. The price of the transactions will not be disclosed.
