Production of electricity from pyrolysis is a function of the calorific make up of the feed stock, the quality of the syngas, and the efficiency of the electricity generation equipment.

Within the Glanpower process, 1 tonne of feed will produce 1 MW of electricity approximately and 2 MW of heat approximately.
