Woody biomass such as the thinned wood is widely distributed in the mountain-ringed region and the field, and it is difficult economically to collect and to transport it. Therefore, small-scale power generation is suitable in many cases. So, in this study we develop small-scale power system, in which stirling engine power system is combined with biomass combustion furnace. We aim at high thermal efficiency and low cost of the biomass power system through this development. In this paper, the demonstration plant of 30kW-class stirling engine system using biomass is introduced and typical results of the field test of the plant are reported.
