Description

Europe Industrial Biomass Boiler Market was valued at USD 3.2 billion in 2024 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 8.0% to reach USD 7.1 billion by 2034.

Market growth is driven by rising industrial decarbonization targets, EU emissions directives, and the rapid replacement of fossil-fuel-based boilers with biomass-powered systems. Government incentives, carbon pricing mechanisms, and the shift toward energy self-sufficiency are accelerating adoption across sectors such as manufacturing, food processing, chemicals, and district heating networks. The increasing availability of agricultural residues, wood pellets, and forestry byproducts is enhancing supply reliability, making biomass boilers a scalable and sustainable thermal energy solution for industrial facilities across the region.

By capacity, the >5 MW – 10 MW segment generated USD 743.1 million in 2024. These boilers are widely adopted by medium and large-scale industrial facilities due to their ability to generate high thermal output with lower emissions and improved fuel efficiency. Their strong integration in district heating plants, processing units, and multi-site manufacturing complexes continues to drive investment. Flexible feedstock compatibility and retrofitting potential also enhance their appeal for industries transitioning from conventional gas or coal-based systems to biomass infrastructure under EU climate mandates.

By feedstock, the woody biomass segment generated USD 2.5 billion in 2024, generating significant revenue due to its consistent calorific value, established supply chain, and compatibility with large-capacity industrial boilers. Wood chips, pellets, and forestry residues remain the preferred fuel sources owing to their lower moisture content, ease of combustion, and reduced ash output. Industries in pulp and paper, textiles, and agri-processing are increasingly selecting woody biomass to meet emissions standards and secure long-term cost stability. Robust regional sourcing and optimized boiler designs further reinforce its dominance.

Germany Industrial Biomass Boiler Market was valued at USD 471.0 million in 2024. Market growth is driven by aggressive renewable heat targets, industrial modernization programs, and strong policy support for biomass-based heating technologies. The country’s emphasis on phasing out coal boilers, combined with high energy costs and carbon credit mechanisms, is encouraging widespread adoption across automotive, chemical, and food processing industries. Regional funding schemes, decentralized heat networks, and reliance on local biomass feedstock continue to strengthen Germany’s leadership position within the European market.

Key Players in the Europe Industrial Biomass Boiler Market are ANDRITZ, Vyncke, Compte'R Biomass Solutions, Schmid AG Energy Solutions, Hargassner, Sugimat, and Dall Energy. Companies in the Europe Industrial Biomass Boiler Market are strengthening their market presence through product diversification, technology enhancement, and strategic partnerships. Many manufacturers are developing high-efficiency combustion systems with automated fuel feeding, advanced flue gas treatment, and digital monitoring to meet strict EU emission norms. Firms are also expanding their service portfolios with turnkey installation, retrofitting solutions, and long-term maintenance contracts to support industrial clients transitioning from fossil fuels. Collaborations with feedstock suppliers and energy service companies are improving supply security and reducing operational downtime.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
