Alholmens Kraft in Pietarsaari

Please feel welcome in familiarising yourself with our company, Alholmens Kraft Ab. We produce electricity, process steam and district heating for our owners, who in turn use the power themselves or sell it on to the end consumers. We produce environmentally friendly power to the most advantageous prices possible while still aiming for a sustainable development.

In our steam boiler we use wood-based bio-fuels as the main fuel as well as peat. Pit coal is used as a reserve fuel. Our new power plant AK2 is the largest biomass power plant in the world. Our aim is to keep the amount of bio-fuel used as high as possible.

After more than 10 years in use, AK2 is still an example for new projects around the world where the goal is to increase the use of renewable energy.

The electricity produced by the plant is sold in open competition on the Nordic market. The better the competitiveness of the power plant, the greater the use of bio-fuels will be.
