 The Municipality in Kisa started building the District
Heating in Kisa 1982.
 A Production unit with biofuelburner 1,2 MW, oilburner and a electricity at Värgårdskolan.
 Vattenfall bought the District Heating from Kisa
Municipality 1994
 Vattenfall made an agreement with 3 new customers
 After that nothing happened
 It was a bad business for Vattenfall
 They had to much oil in the heating production, it was
50% oil and 50% biofuel.
 Vattenfall also had the steam production in Swedish
Tissue

 Tekniska Verken bought the District Heating from
Vattenfall in 2005
 At the same time we bought the Incinerater at Swedish
Tissue.
 We started working with the problem in Kisa
 We looked at three ways to get more biofuel in the fuelmix.
 At the same time Södra Timber contacted us
 Södra Timber begin deliver heat water to the District
Heating in 2007
 After 2007 more then 95% biofuel in the District Heating

The Swedish government significantly wants to reduce CO
2
-emissions outside EU ETS and in the energy sector
Almost no allocation to the energy sector this period, the next ?
Not possible for TVAB to get allotment for the extra emissions related to the new production line at SwT
Lower repayment of CO
2 tax for heat delivery to industry, e.g. higher tax
Lower CO
2 tax for industry inside EU ETS
This puts us in a difficult spot
