KYIV, June 18 – Philip Morris Ukraine, a large tobacco company in Ukraine, plans to finish construction of a solid fuel boiler in September 2018 and switch its factory from gas to solid fuel.

Deputy Director General Ihor Kroshko said that investment in the project is around UAH 63 million.

"Any kind of granular biofuel can be used as a fuel, which will allow reducing greenhouse gas emissions several times. The boiler's productivity is 6 tons of steam per hour and the capacity is 3.8 megawatts. The new boiler-house will completely cover the needs of the factory," the company said.
