Biomass combustion and CHP and Steam turbines and thermal power plants

Energy flows from biomass combustion and CHP to steam turbines and thermal power plants; their prices have moved together.

Biomass combustion and CHP (energy) and Steam turbines and thermal power plants (energy): 2 relationships.

How they are linked

1. Energy flow

Physical flow · 23% of flow · Biomass combustion and CHP → Steam turbines and thermal power plants

Biomass boilers raise steam for power-station turbines.

• 23% of Biomass combustion and CHP's energy goes this way

2. Price link: steam supply

Cost and price · Weak · Both ways

Boilers raise the steam that turbines expand, and both are ordered together for thermal plants. The boiler proxy correlates with the turbine index at 0.26 monthly, a modest link that reflects shared plant projects and similar heavy fabrication costs.

• 0.26 monthly change correlation
• 0.17 12-month change correlation
• 0.40 fitted elasticity
