The PyroPark Forst project

Behind the plans is PyroPark Forst, one of our own sites. Pyrolysis plants there are to produce electricity, heat and biochar from regional residues. You can find the current status on the PyroPark Forst project page.

Growth in Lusatia

In Cottbus we manufacture the plants in series today. A dedicated site such as PyroPark Forst shows customers how several plants work together and creates jobs in engineering, operations and logistics. The Lausitzer Rundschau had already reported on pyropower around the Innovation Award in November 2025.
