Danish green energy company Orsted is building its coal stockpile in anticipation of burning more of the fuel next winter, just as the EU approved a ban on Russian coal imports as part of a fifth round of sanctions.<\/p>\n

Chief executive Mads Nipper said a global shortage of wood pellets, which fuel Orsted\u2019s biomass power stations, meant the company was likely to use coal instead later in the year.<\/p>\n

\u201cHowever much we hate it, we are very likely going to see a temporary increase in our coal use, compared to the trajectory that we have been in,\u201d Nipper told the Financial Times.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat is driven by the situation out of the war,\u201d he said, explaining that Russia\u2019s invasion of Ukraine, combined with global supply chain challenges, had made it extremely hard to procure the specialised wood pellets Orsted usually relies on.<\/p>\n

\u201cBiomass is hard to get right now because everyone is looking for fuel,\u201d Nipper said. \u201cWe have sourced additional back-up coal to ensure that we are prepared.\u201d<\/p>\n

The $59bn company\u2019s share price has dropped by about one-sixth over the past 12 months, partly owing to low wind speeds that hit revenues.<\/p>\n

While Orsted is known as the world\u2019s biggest developer of offshore wind farms, the company also has a gas trading arm, a US clean energy business, and operates nine power plants in Denmark.<\/p>\n

Of those, six plants run on wood pellets or wood chips; two run on gas; and one runs on coal. Some plants burn more than one type of fuel.<\/p>\n

In the midst of an energy crisis in Europe triggered by the war in Ukraine, Nipper said the increase in coal use was a \u201cnecessary short-term evil\u201d and the company\u2019s plans to close the one remaining coal plant next year were unchanged.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
