The firms have been chosen for the following suppliers' list according to two main principles:
- a large geographical coverage- preference has been given to firms manufacturing equipment mainly for small size plants.
Although the list includes nearly 40 firms from 15 countries it naturally covers only a fraction of all firms manufacturing power and heat plant equipment. Especially small scale boilers and fuel handling equipment are manufactured by a multitude of firms throughout the world. Many of these are rather small, supplying only a domestic market. There has been no possibility to list them all in the following suppliers' list. The possible absence of some firm from the list must however not be regarded as an opinion about the quality or fitness of its products.
