The Biomass Control Solution(BCS® Suite) from CONENGA Engineers is the innovative, tailor-made control product for modern biomass heating (power) plants. The first BCS®-FLR was used in a wood-fired power plant over 10 years ago. The development was derived from our innovative control concepts for large-scale power plants. This technological commitment has enabled us to achieve results above the industry standard. The development has continued steadily since then. In addition to the first module of fire power control, further modules were added such as buffer storage management, load hierarchy management, bad point control or de-swathing control. The peak load boiler control module was also included from the very beginning.
The result is a control concept that has been tested many times and proven in practical use, which is supported by various toolboxes. The toolboxes can be online calculations of the calorific value or fuel moisture, but other soft sensors such as support values for temperatures in hard-to-reach places are also used. This means that the BCS® Suite can be adapted and used very quickly and individually to existing conditions.
Sustainable benefit
The benefits are manifold – quiet, optimally controlled combustion, higher efficiency, longer plant travel time and constant compliance with limit values – to name just a few. Depending on the size of the boiler and the complexity of the system, implementation takes place in a tightly structured project procedure. The potential study at the beginning makes optimization potential clearly quantifiable and leads to a fact-based customer decision on the form in which the optimization is implemented.
Know-how transfer for practitioners
In our webinar series “Maximum fuel efficiency in wood-fired (heating) power plants”, we were able to encourage active exchange at practitioner level. With technical practical impulses and an open exchange, it is an interesting platform for decision-makers in wood-fired (heating) power plants.
BCS® Cloud – your meaningful data portal
Thanks to intensive development work, the BCS® Suite installed on site with the functionalities defined on site and the corresponding secure data connection fits perfectly into the additional cloud solution provided. The BCS® Cloud is equipped with sound, comprehensive IT security concepts and impresses with maximum availability. Savings are visible online, operations are visualized transparently and the required reporting and evaluations of environmental performance are simple. A wide range of evaluations can be supplemented by computer-intensive applications (artificial intelligence) if desired and appropriate. You benefit from a holistic view of your plant as well as a clear presentation of KPIs and benchmarking.
BCS® Cloud provides you with a company-specific portal. If you have several power plants with BCS®, BCS® Cloud also allows you to bundle data from several locations. This allows you to benefit from a holistic visualization and evaluation of your data as well as from cross-system reporting. The integrated role-based authorization concept and multi-factor authentication ensure the optimal use of your data.

“You don’t make fortunes with inventions, but with improvements”.
Henry Ford already recognized that improvement and progress are the foundation for sustainable success – these principles are still essential principles of lean management today and are also the basis for sustainable energy efficiency for us. In addition to lower operating costs due to the improvement in overall efficiency and the consistently efficient operation of your biomass heating (power) plant, optimizing your biomass heating (power) plant with our BCS® Suite also makes a significant contribution to climate protection by significantly reducing emissions and operating resources.
