Fuel In. Steam Out.
Everything Between.
CPE commands a deep range of combustion and boiler technologies and sources fabrication and equipment through a diverse domestic and international supply chain matched to each project's location - engineering every system from first principles, not catalog designs, without the overhead of a centralized manufacturing facility.
TECHNOLOGIES
Boiler Types
Complete boiler island engineering across stoker, fluidized bed, suspension fired, and HRSG configurations.

Power Boilers
BFB boiler for high-moisture biomass - South America
Complete BFB boiler design for a biomass facility in South America, handling high-moisture fuels with custom combustion and heat transfer engineering.

Debottlenecking
Biomass boiler capacity limits identified across 17 subsystems
Component-level performance and capacity assessment of boiler, fans, ESP, fuel handling & metering, ash handling, economizer, air heater, multiclone and emissions controls systems. Boiler and appurtenant systems were modeled at existing and target conditions to identify bottlenecks and areas for improvement, required to achieve target conditions. Capital cost estimates were then provided for each option for determination of the best option to proceed with.
THE CPE DIFFERENCE
Engineers from the
Boiler OEM side
CPE was founded by engineers who came from boiler OEM engineering departments. That background means the team approaches every project with the depth that comes from having designed and built these systems - not just consulted on them.
OEM engineering roots
Founded by the core engineering team of a biomass boiler OEM. CPE’s approach to boiler design comes from building these systems as original equipment - not just consulting on them.
Fundamental design depth
Understanding how boiler components are designed at their fundamental levels - furnaces, drums, tube banks, grate systems - allows CPE to solve problems other firms cannot reach.
Every configuration and fuel
All solid fuel boiler types (stoker, BFB, CFB, suspension), firetube, HRSG, and recovery boilers. 60+ biomass fuels across six continents, from single-boiler audits to full EPCM packages.
Industry pedigree
Team members with backgrounds across Babcock & Wilcox, McBurney, FSE Energy, and Thermal Systems Engineering - bringing OEM, consulting, and operating perspectives to the work.
