About
EnergieWerk Ilg GmbH is a family-owned regional energy utility in Dornbirn, Vorarlberg, Austria that operates wood-chip gasification CHP plants producing renewable electricity, district heat, and biochar. In September 2025 it commissioned Austria’s first coupled biomass-power/carbon-capture/biochar facility at its Stöcken plant using Bright Renewables’ CarboPac-C amine-based capture unit, and won the 2025 Austrian Wood Energy Prize for the project. Energy supply remains the core business; CDR (biochar + BECCS-style CO2 capture) is an adjacent activity built on top of the existing combustion infrastructure.
