Saxlund to deliver to new biomass CHP in Wiesbaden

Saxlund International GmbH, a fully-owned subsidiary of Opcon AB, the energy and
environmental technology Group, has been given responsibility for delivery of
state-of-the-art recycled wood handling for the new combined heat and power
plant that will be built by ESWE BioEnergie GmbH in Wiesbaden, Germany. The
delivery includes push-floors, conveyors and magnetic separators to separate
metal for additional recycling. All designed for efficiency, minimum maintenance
and high availability as well as low emission of dust and noise.

Total order value is around SEK 12 million with delivery in 2012/2013 and
commissioning in April 2013.

The 43 MW biomass-fueled CHP in Wiesbaden is expected to provide green
electricity and heat to around 12,000 single family homes previously supplied
with fossil fuels. As such ESWE expects it to contribute to achieving a fifth of
Wiesbaden’s climate targets for 2020.

-       We are very happy to be part of Wiesbaden’s road for increasing its use
of renewable energy. With Saxlund’s state-of-the-art equipment and Saxlund’s
more than 50 years of experience in delivering biomass handling systems we are
instrumental in ensuring high availability and efficiency for our customers,
says Christoph Groffmann, Managing Director of Saxlund International GmbH.

Saxlund International GmbH is part of Opcon’s Waste to Value initiative with a
special focus on Waste Heat Recovery and bioenergy. Within the bioenergy sector,
Opcon offers everything from the design of complete combined heat and power
(CHP) plants to handling systems and incineration plants under the Saxlund

pellets producers and commercial greenhouses. The offer also includes flue gas
condensation equipment for industrial activities as well as drying systems for
