Cogeneration & On–Site Power Production | September-October 2013 www.cospp.com4

Equations and opinions

A magazine such as Cogeneration

& On-Site Power Production

(COSPP) is supposed to have

value. That means it should

serve you, its readers, with useful content.

Value can originate from the pleasure of

reading interesting stories, from information

on products and suppliers, and from useful

knowledge about local power generators.

However, business life is so hectic these days

and so much information is offered constantly,

that a tendency exists to skip all ‘nice to know’

information and to concentrate only on ‘need

to know’ information. The big question always

is, what is nice and what is needed?

I remember the time as a young engineer, I

tried to read almost any magazine and book

on engineering that I could get my hands on. I

hoped all that information would help me fnd

the right answers, and even the right questions.

I had and still have a very high esteem for

people who have the skill to write an article.

But it often took a lot of effort to understand

the content and the associated value of the

articles.

Only when I started to carry out my own

technical research did the situation change.

It is very peculiar, but when you are urgently

looking for an answer, digesting literature can

happen quickly. It appears that the brain can

automatically select what is needed and

ignore what can be skipped. Nevertheless, the

right literature has to exist, and COSPP has and

will play an important role in this.

The big question now is, what should a

good article for COSPP look like. Recently, a

friendly and helpful experienced engineer

told me that using ‘formulas’ in an article

would immediately turn off the bulk of modern

readers. Many people are apparently allergic

to mathematics.

And yes, I agree with him: a ‘formula’ by itself

is like a magic sentence, a charm, but can

lead to irritations. A good article is therefore not

based on ‘formulas’. However, good articles

can feature technical equations that illustrate

relationships between quantities. If the author

has explained what the background of the

equation is and how it can be used, preferably

with a diagram illustrating the relationship,

it can be an eye opener. Equations can, for

example, help you to calculate the fnancial

benefts of on-site power generation. Physical

relationships can also tell you why electricity

supply systems beneft from local generation.

Therefore, dear prospective authors, please

do not hesitate to insert helpful equations in

your articles. Good articles are more than an

opinion: good articles explain and teach.

Why am I writing this? It is partly a result of

being happy with a magazine dedicated to

distributed generation-related subjects, but

also partly due to some irritation. During recent

discussions with policy makers in Brussels on

the benefts of local generation, they told me

that what I said was nothing more than an

opinion. In order to get support for my opinion,

I had to show them that a large proportion of

the population supported me. When I tried

to explain that my reasoning was based on

scientifcally-proven facts, they still answered:

‘That is only your opinion’.

One sees the same thing happening in

discussion groups on Linked-In and other

social media. Solid knowledge is replaced by

feelings and opinions. Fortunately, we have

this magazine, in which we can exchange

valuable information and help to provide

useful knowledge for further expansion and

optimization of cogeneration and on-site

power production.

Insight

Building ‘cathedrals’ gives way to mass- produced power sources

Among three themes

recently asserted by

energy guru Amory Lovins

as affecting the US energy

scene is that momentum is shifting,

not just from fossil-fuelled power plants

to renewables, but from centralized to

distributed generation.

Writing in the summer issue of

its Solutions Journal, Lovins, the

cofounder and now Chairman

Emeritus of the infuential Rocky

Mountain Institute, likens traditional

power station development projects to

building a cathedral, and distributed

generation units to mass-produced,

manufactured products. He is talking

mainly about solar photovoltaic (PV)

panels, but the analogy works almost

as well for slightly larger distributed

generation technologies, including

CHP.

The point has been made before –

that although the emergence of utility-

scale large wind farms garner a great

deal of attention, the parallel growth

of building-integrated solar panels,

CHP schemes feeding industrial sites

and commercial buildings, and new

district energy schemes, is more

a revolution in size, location and

ownership of generating plant than

simply from fossil fuels to renewable

sources of energy.

With giant forest fres threatening

power (and water) transmission to

the city of San Francisco at the time

of writing, the need for population

centres and industry to be less reliant

on remote, centralized electricity

generation is emphasized further. US

power grids tend to be highly reliable,

but the consequences of occasional

failure can be enormous.

Lovins’ other two themes are that

progress is fnally being made in terms

of the effciency with which energy is

used, both in buildings and in cars;

and that renewable projects of all sizes

are making serious gains, not only in

world-leading Germany but also in

the US. Lovins sees total US electricity

consumption steadily shrinking in the

future, rather than following traditional

growth patterns as spending on utility

energy-effciency programmes grows

to serious levels.

Meanwhile, prices of solar power

units have fallen to a point where the

technology can undercut power even

from modern gas-fred power plants.

Solar power accounted, says Lovins,

for 49% of new generating capacity

added to US grids in the frst quarter

of this year.

While new ‘cathedrals’ take lots of

money and time to build, Chinese

PV panel factories are churning

out products 24/7 and solar power

prices are falling steadily. But it’s not

all about size and number of units –

Lovins suggests that local ownership

patterns are crucial too. Denmark’s

30-year transition from centralized

coal-fred power plants to distributed

wind and cogeneration plants came

about partly because most of these

units are owned either by local

farmers or communities. Likewise,

half of the renewables schemes in

Germany are owned by its citizens or

communities.

Aside from renewables, district

energy schemes are usually owned,

if not operated by, local government

units with a brief to lower energy costs

for their own buildings and, in some

cases, for publicly-owned housing,

alongside local business premises.

Operators of campus-based schemes

are in direct control of their own

energy costs.

It’s certainly true, particularly in

Europe, that over recent years the

green agenda has favoured the

development of electricity-generating

renewables much more than energy

effciency, even though the impact

using (and generating) energy at

higher effciencies can have a similar

impact on carbon emissions. And

small-scale, high-effciency plants are

more easily fnanced, quicker to build,

and deliver considerable to benefts

to electricity grids.

This last advantage is diffcult to

quantify or monetize, but operators

of power grids fed from multiple

small sources with a variety of

technologies have a more resilient

power distribution system. Citizens

of San Francisco may be about to

experience the opposite of this.

Lovins is not complacent, though,

suggesting that the battle for what

he calls a more effcient, diverse,

distributed, renewable electricity

system is far from won. Plenty of

barriers still need to be dismantled to

enable the full transformation.

Comment

Given that gridlock in

the US Congress and

on the energy policy

scene in Washington

seems to be a semi-permanent state,

a great deal of the activity has been

shifted to the states that are not as

politically tied in knots.

The energy supply problems

experienced in the Northeast of

the US require immediate action to

make sure that the electric grid is

more resilient in the event another

weather event akin to Hurricane

Sandy should strike the region,

and cannot wait for the gridlock in

Washington to be resolved. Thus,

much of the work on policies and

programmes that can provide a

solution has shifted to these states.

That is why the most recent

meeting of the National Association

of Regulatory Utility Commissioners

(NARUC) was of great interest to

policy makers, as well as those

seeking creative solutions and

actions to the energy policy gridlock.

NARUC brings together energy

regulators from around the US, as well

as representatives from international

regulatory bodies for a dialogue on

the issues of the day. The Summer

Meeting included a great deal of

discussion of subjects relevant to the

decentralized energy community,

such as microgrids, integration of

renewable energy resources and

distributed generation.

Of particular interest was a

discussion on the ‘Implications of

Distributed Energy Resources on

Regulatory Policies’ that addressed

a report from the Critical Consumer

Issues Forum (CCIF), a group that

brings together state regulators,

consumer advocates and utilities.

As the cost of solar PV has

dropped precipitously and rooftop

installations have soared, this has

given rise to a number of concerns

about the impact on the utility

business model, especially where

these distributed resources are

allowed to be ‘net metered’ with the

grid. While distributed generation

offers a number of system and

customer benefts, such as

providing a cleaner source of power

generation and a more diversifed

portfolio of generation assets that

can provide greater system reliability

and security, many utilities view this

as a competitive threat. The CCIF

report identifed 21 principles in the

areas of fnancial and regulatory

issues; market development and

deployment issues; consumer issues;

and safety, reliability and system

planning issues. One of the fnancial

and regulatory principles states:

DER incentives should be based

on clear policy objectives and

periodically reevaluated based

on market conditions. Once the

underlying policy objectives are

met or as the technologies become

cost-competitive or cost-prohibitive,

such incentives should be modifed

or discontinued.

The report further clarifes that

incentives include ‘any net metering

arrangement that provides benefts

exceeding the underlying value of

the energy received from that DER’.

Interestingly, just days before the

NARUC session, Fitch, which provides

credit ratings and analyses of

utilities, sounded the warning bells

over net metering in a report that

states that the destabilization of the

power markets in Spain from feed-in

tariffs and net metering incentives is

a “cautionary tale” for the US.

So with existing incentives for

distributed generation under fre from

regulators, consumer advocates,

utilities and rating agencies, the

future of net metering is uncertain,

even though these policies are

proven solutions to creating a more

diverse and robust energy delivery

system that can respond to storms

and other events. CHP systems are

typically either ineligible for net

metering or severely restricted in

how they may participate. If we want

to be ready for the next Hurricane

Sandy, the states would be wiser to

consider how to expand incentives

so that all distributed resources can

participate, rather than engage in a

dialogue on their demise.

The UK’s frst carbon neutral

laboratory is to be built at

the University of Nottingham

in England and is set to cost

around $24m.

A project team including

contractor Morgan Sindall and

project manager Gleeds will

start construction of the 4500

sq m facility this autumn and

the laboratory is to powered by

renewable sources including

solar power and sustainable

biomass.

The GlaxoSmithKline Carbon

Neutral Laboratory of Sustain-

able Chemistry will provide

chemistry laboratory facilities

for 100 researchers and is be-

ing part-funded by GlaxoSmith-

Kline. It is expected that the

laboratory will become carbon

neutral after 25 years of opera-

tion.

The university claims that

excess energy created by the

building will provide enough

carbon credits over 25 years to

pay back the carbon used in

its construction.

UK’S FIRST CARBON NEUTRAL LABORATORY ANNOUNCED

A research report by the

American Council for an

Energy Effcient Economy

states that utilities could

reap substantial benefts

by investing in and encour-

aging new combined heat

and power systems.

It says the major benefts

CHP offers to utilities include

cost-effectiveness, fast de-

ployment, and loss avoid-

ance and reduced strain on

transmission and distribu-

tion systems.

The report states that

policy and regulatory

changes that would allow

or encourage utilities to take

advantage of these ben-

efts include establishing an

energy effciency resource

standard or other portfolio

standard that prioritizes CHP

as a critical resource, and

allowing utilities to earn cost

recovery and economic re-

turns on investments in CHP,

as allowed for other genera-

tion resources.

The report also advises

encouragement of utili-

ties to offer dedicated CHP

programmes within overall

energy effciency program-

ming, and offering perfor-

mance incentives for excep-

tional effciency results.

Report urges utilities to invest in CHP technology

GE, Nexterra and the University

of British Columbia (UBC) have

combined to produce the frst

renewable waste combined

heat and power system in

North America.

The system involves taking

wood fuel and converting it to

synthetic gas, which is burned

to produce heat. GE asked

Nexterra to produce a syngas

that burns cleanly enough

to fuel its Jenbacher high-

effciency internal combustion

engines, and that is the core

process at the centre of the

facility.

Combining Nexterra’s

proprietary gasifcation and

syngas conditioning process

with the Jenbacher creates a

system capable of producing

both heat and electricity.

Nexterra spent four years

at its facility in Kamloops

developing a way to crack tars

from syngas. After more than

5000 hours of successful small-

scale trials, GE and Nexterra

approached UBC to host a

larger demonstration project.

Dubbed the Bioenergy

Research and Demonstration

Facility, the equipment is

housed in a solid wood

building on UBC’s Vancouver

campus. Fuelled by renewable

syngas, the Jenbacher can

generate 2 MW of electricity

and 3 MW of thermal energy,

enough to displace up to

12% of UBC’s natural gas

consumption.

Once the system logs

more runtime, GE said that

it will begin promoting

the cogeneration system

worldwide.

GE is now working with

Nexterra to explore the use of

syngas from other renewable

sources, such as biosolids from

sewage treatment plants, to

fuel the Jenbacher.

Trans Gulf has emerged from

a rigorous process to win the

contract to develop Empower’s

new district cooling (DC) plant

at the Business Bay complex

(pictured) in Dubai, UAE.

Construction Weekly reports

senior vice-president of

projects at the company, S.G.

Thiyagarajan, as saying that

the process was “very tough”.

Trans Gulf was chosen

ahead of several major MEP

contractors as its experience

in developing other local DC

plants proving vital to securing

the $42m contract.

Trans Gulf’s experience

in district cooling plants

includes the operation and

maintenance of Business

Bay’s District Cooling Plant

2 and Dubai Health Care

City’s DCP, as well as the

reticulation works, operation

and maintenance of Business

Bay’s District Cooling Plant 3.

The project will involve the

construction of one building

with a built-up area of almost

9,500m² and will have a total

capacity of 43,750 refrigeration

tonnes (RT).

The facility will be the frst

district cooling plant in the

region to be built in line with

“green building” principles,

and to follow the guidelines of

treated sewage effuent and

thermal energy storage.

The project is expected to

be completed in mid-2014.

The 2013 DOE Western

Regional Dialogue Meeting on

Industrial Energy Effciency and

Combined Heat and Power will

take place in Salt Lake City, in

the US, on October 29.

This one-day dialogue

meeting will focus on the

potential for increased

industrial energy effciency in

the region.

It will also push for successful

industrial and CHP policy

approaches, innovative policy

options, and opportunities to

work together to achieve the

many benefts of industrial

energy effciency and CHP.

The meeting builds on the

August 30, 2012, Executive

Order: Accelerating Investment

in Industrial Energy Effciency,

which sets a goal of 40 GW of

new, cost-effective industrial

CHP in the US by 2020.

It also calls for developing

and implementing state

best practice policies and

investment models that

address the multiple barriers

to industrial energy effciency

and CHP.

The European Investment

Bank (EIB) has issued the

largest ever climate bond in

the European Union.

The $857m (€650m) funds

from the Climate Awareness

Bond are earmarked for

projects within the felds of

renewable energy and energy

effciency.

These include wind,

hydropower, wave, tidal, solar

and geothermal projects and

effciency schemes such as

district heating, cogeneration,

building insulation, energy

loss reduction in transmission

and distribution, and

equipment replacement with

signifcant energy effciency

improvements. The bank said

the bond generated strong

demand among a series of

investors genuinely interested

in the socially responsible

features of the transaction,

adding new investors to EIB’s

distribution, particularly in the

Benelux, Germany and France,

which accounted for around

80% of fnal allocations.

Asset managers, insurance

companies and pension

funds provided more than half

of distribution by investor type.

The European Union and

the EIB have both made

climate change mitigation

and adaptation a top policy

priority.

Weltec Biopower has won

its frst contract in Belgium,

having been requested by

NPG Energy to set up a biogas

combined heat and power

plant in the Limburg region.

The 2.4-MW plant will power

around 5000 households and

is set to go live in spring 2014.

The 19 GWh that will be

generated every year will be

consumed by the Spin-group

BV, which needs the electricity

for its production facilities

in which special carpet

yarns are manufactured in a

demanding polymerisation

process.

The plant concept ensures

effciency in all areas. The

generated heat will be utilised

directly on site: the digestate

will be extracted directly from

the 2000m3 second-stage-

digester in order to be dried

with the entire heat produced

by the plant and the dry

fertiliser will then be sold to fruit

and winegrowers across the

border.

A highly effcient mix from

grease separators and a pre-

mixed, ready-to-use substrate

will account for another major

portion of the input. Apart from

plant residue, this mix will also

contain fats and vegetable

waste. Additionally, the two

bioreactors of a capacity of

4700m3 each will be fed with

soap water from biodiesel

production and cereals prune.

This substrate mix is typical

for Belgium, where biogas

digesters have always been

charged with diverse mixtures.

year, is using on-site power and

cogeneration to power its vast

operation.

Topping out ceremonies

were held this month to mark

the completion of the core

structure of the tower, when the

last beam was placed on top

of the 632-metre (2073-foot)

building designed by global

design and architecture frm

Wind turbines located

directly beneath the parapet

generate on-site power for the

upper foors of the building,

with a 2130kW natural gas-fred

cogeneration system on site

providing electricity and heat

energy to the lower foors.

Meanwhile, the tower’s

outer skin insulates the

building, reducing energy

use for heating and cooling.

The tower’s spiralling parapet

collects rainwater, which is

used for the tower’s heating

and air conditioning systems.

Overall, the $2.2bn Shanghai

Tower’s sustainable strategies

will reduce the building’s

carbon footprint by 34 000

electrical capacity of 23 MW

and heat capacity 45 MW.

The inauguration ceremony

will be attended by the

Presidents of both Latvia and

Finland, and the Ambassador

of Finland to Latvia.

The plant is to use wood

Bharathi Indian Polar Station,

the scientifc research facility

located in the Antarctic Circle,

is being powered by combined

heat and power technology

since becoming operational

last year.

The facility (pictured), which

is comprised of shipping

containers, uses three

combined heat and power

units, fueled by kerosene, to

generate heat and power.

Commissioned by India’s

National Center For Antarctic

And Ocean Research and

designed by Hamburg-based

BOF Architekten, the new

station is located Larsmann Hills

section of northeast Antarctica.

The treaty that governs

international research stations

on the continent stipulate

that the structure must have

the ability to be completely

disassembled and removed

from the frigid landscape

without leaving a trace, so the

designers immediate turned

to shipping containers as

their building medium, reports

EarthTechling.

Built on stilts, the Bharathi

Polar Station has three foors,

comprised of 134 shipping

containers. The containers,

which were prefabricated in

Germany, are interlocked and

covered by an insulated skin

and outer shell.

Inside the facility are 24

single and double rooms, a

kitchen, dining room, library,

ftness room, offces, lounge,

and an operating theatre

along with laboratories, storage

areas, assorted technical

spaces, and a workshop.

Nippon Paper Industries

USA’s expanded biomass

cogeneration plant is fnally

set to go online in October in

Washington State.

The plant will create steam

to make paper and generate

20 MW of electricity for the mill

and for sale.

That includes hydraulic

equipment, valves, fuel lines

and a snakelike mass of

external piping that carries

water, steam and air between

the boiler and the mill.

Main components include a

30-foot cooling tower, 110-foot

boiler and a 115-foot cone-

shaped wood-waste-fuel silo.

Also being tested is a “truck

dump” that lifts vehicles flled

with biomass high in the air —

tractor, trailer and all — and

dumps the wood waste out the

back.

The project has survived

appeals before the state

Shoreline Hearings Board and

Thurston County Superior Court

that began before construction

commenced in June 2011.

Opponents have been

concerned about air pollution,

though the company has

maintained — and the Olympic

Region Clean Air Agency has

agreed — that Nippon has

fulflled all state and federal

pollution-control laws.

The cost of the new plant

originally was estimated at

$71m but it rose to $85m due to

higher-than-expected costs for

the cooling tower and redesign

of the fuel silo and foundation.

Reliable heart for your

cogeneration unit

The Mexican government

has unveiled a bill that would

open up more opportunities for

cogeneration to fourish in the

country.

While the bill is mainly

concerned with changing the

Mexican constitution to let it

partner with private companies

to fnd and produce oil and

gas in a country, it also seeks

to liberalise Mexico’s electricity

sector by allowing private frms

to produce and sell electricity

to consumers.

A third of Mexico’s electricity

is generated by private frms

under a cogeneration plan

where they produce power

for themselves and sell the

extra to the state electric

utility.

If the legislation passes it

will continue to encourage an

environment where combined

heat and power can grow.

The move would end the

monopoly of the Federal

Electricity Commission, poten-

tially lowering electricity prices

for companies and residents.

The bill now goes to Mexico’s

congress.

The conservative opposition

has said it would support the

proposals, giving Peña Nieto’s

Institutional Revolutionary Party

the two-thirds majority it will

need to pass the constitutional

changes.

ASEAN’s decentralized energy sector

The impetus behind decentralized energy development in the ASEAN

ASEAN’s decentralized energy sector

A ‘launch and

learn’ strategy is

not the kind Chip

Bottone favours

when he participates in

an energy project in a

new country. The CEO of

US-based FuelCell Energy

would rather understand the

market before venturing into

untried territory. He would

prefer ‘learn and launch’.

But he knew this would be

impossible in Indonesia, a

member of the Association

of Southeast Asian Nations

(ASEAN). These countries –

Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia,

Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar,

the Philippines, Singapore,

Thailand and Vietnam –

can be the land of both

opportunity and frustration for

international decentralized

energy companies. Doing

business here often requires

a pioneering spirit and a

measure of patience. So what

drew Bottone to Indonesia?

‘What we saw in Indonesia

was a fairly big population –

150 million people. They had

inadequate infrastructure in

terms of electricity. They had

a growing middle class. They

did have natural resources’, he

says. But Bottone adds, “They

also had lot of things that are

not helpful, like corruption and

disorganization.”

With long-time South Korean

partner POSCO Energy, FuelCell

Energy launched its Indonesia

project in 2011, as the frst

commercial stationary fuel cell

power plant in Southeast Asia

outside of South Korea. The

partners chose a highly visible

location to create a showcase

project that would capture

attention – Ancol Dreamland,

a waterpark resort and major

tourist destination in Jakarta.

Two years later the 300 kW

combined heat and power

(CHP) plant is still not in

operation, at the time of the

writing of this article, but is in

the fnal construction phase.

Bottone estimates the same

project would take six to nine

months to complete in the US.

Still the partners

accomplished their goal: ‘It

was meant to demonstrate

how to interconnect to the grid,

what the economics are, what

all the approval processes

are, what all the permitting

processes are – because they

don’t have established policy

as other more developed

countries have’, he says.

Welcome to the ASEAN

countries – where the potential

for decentralized energy is

vast but not easy to capture

because of bureaucracy, lack

of clear rules, and sometimes

a dearth of infrastructure and

skilled workers.

Growing demand and

blackouts

Decentralized energy or

distributed generation,

particularly from clean

energy, remains a nascent

undertaking in much of the

region.

‘On-site generation or

distributed generation is not

commonly implemented in

ASEAN member countries,

which still focus on centralized

generation’, says Beni Suryadi,

energy policy analyst at the

ASEAN Centre for Energy.

But there is no question that

the region could beneft from

more on-site power. Anywhere

there are transmission and

distribution grid inadequacies

market opportunities for

distributed generation open

up. And the ASEAN countries

have their share of grid

inadequacies.

Consider, for example, May

2013. Forty per cent of Luzon

Island in the Philippines lost

power, including metropolitan

Manila, because of power

plant failures. Thailand

experienced its largest

blackout on record in its 14

southern provinces following

a lightning strike, and Vietnam

saw a 10-hour blackout in

22 provinces, including Ho

Chi Minh City because of

damage to a transmission line,

according to press reports.

Such events are not unusual

because the countries have

not updated or expanded

their power infrastructure

quickly enough. The result is

‘a tremendous amount of

brownouts and blackouts and

tremendous loss of quality of

power,’ says Sridhar Samudrala,

an assistant professor at SUNY

Delhi USA and president &

CEO of International Energy

Consulting Co.

Meanwhile, the population

and economies are expanding

and demanding more energy;

some areas are becoming

electrifed for the frst time.

ASEAN is the fourth most

populated block in the world

– behind China, India and the

European Union. Its middle

class is growing, and expected

to become 65% of the total

population by 2030, up from

only 24% in 2010, according

to a report by Dubai-based

investment frm, the Abraaj

Group, which invests in

emerging economies.

Further, the report says, its

population is young and will

increasingly demand more

consumer goods. The region

already has healthy growth

in gross domestic product:

5.7% for 2012 and a predicted

5.5% for 2013, according to

the International Monetary

Fund.

All of these changes

and growth require more

electrifcation. And in some

areas, demand is dramatically

outstripping supply. For

example, in Myanmar about

75% of the population is still

without access to electricity,

and the government says

that supply is only about

half of projected demand,

according to a report

Electricity in Myanmar:

The Missing Prerequisite for

Development, by the Harvard

Kennedy School Ash Center for

Democratic Governance and

Innovation and the Rajawali

Foundation Institute for Asia.

So with blackouts rampant

and central grids slow to

improve, it is no surprise

that decentralized energy is

growing at what Samudrala

described as an ‘exponential’

pace.

‘The current grid is unable

to expand at the level of

growth in the ASEAN countries

and therefore the industrial,

commercial, and residential

customers are opting for small-

scale generation and creating

mini grids’, he says.

Coal use to grow

Electric reliability is one reason

for the ASEAN countries to

pursue advanced distributed

generation; environmental

concerns are another.

Fossil fuels account for 74%

of the region’s generation,

and about 22% comes from

combustible biomass and

waste that is ineffcient and

environmentally unsustainable,

Distributed generation is not

commonly implemented in ASEAN

member countries, which still focus

on centralized generation. But

there is no question that the

region could beneft from more

on-site power

1309cospp_17 17 9/9/13 11:27 AM

Cogeneration & On–Site Power Production | September-October 2013 www.cospp.com18

ASEAN’s decentralized energy sector

according to research by

Melissa Low, energy analyst

at the National University of

Singapore’s Energy Studies

Institute.

Demand for coal has grown

fastest over the last decade in

Malaysia. Indonesia, Thailand

and Vietnam also are large

coal consumers, according

to the US Energy Information

Administration’s (EIA)

International Outlook 2013.

The coming years are

expected to bring even more

use of coal in the ASEAN

countries, even as developed

nations like the US begin to

curb its use. The EIA forecasts

an annual increase in coal

consumption of 2.4%. Several

new, large coal-fred plants, of

at least 1 GW, are coming on

line, particularly in Malaysia,

Indonesia and Vietnam. In

Vietnam alone, 36 GW of coal-

fred generation is expected

to be installed by 2020 and

76 GW by 2030.

Another fossil fuel important

to the region is diesel.

The region relies on diesel

generators to overcome its

reliability problems. However,

this option can be expensive.

For example, in Myanmar

diesel prices were about

$1/litre in early 2012, which

is the equivalent of $0.30 to

$0.35/kWh – or fve or six times

the average price charged

by the government utility for

electricity, according to the

Harvard–Rajawali report.

While diesel can be

expensive, it is also important

to the region because it

can mean the difference in

ASEAN countries between

power or no power, and brings

signifcant changes in quality

of life and business operations,

particularly in remote outposts.

For countries like Myanmar

and Cambodia and remote

Indonesia ‘this option is still on

the table’, Suryadi says. He adds

that great effort is being made

to install renewable energy as

a substitute, but capital costs

and lack of infrastructure

remain as barriers.

In a case study, MTU Onsite

Energy describes better

schooling for children and

a rise in small businesses

installation in the Indonesian

city of Fakfak, following

installation of its MTU Series

1600 engines. Fakfak, which

has a population of 69,000

people, is separated from

other communities by poorly

maintained mountain roads,

had relied on power from

neighbouring towns, which

meant blackouts were the

norm. The local MTU generators

now maintain Fakfak’s

2.4 MWh peak demand.

‘Countries like Vietnam,

Lao PDR, India, Myanmar,

Philippines, Pakistan and others

generate a lot of electricity from

diesel, as the grid is unreliable.

The private sector companies

simply cannot rely on the grid

and they are converting to

alternative and renewable

energy as an option to offset

the diesel energy prices’,

confrms Samudrala

Renewable goals

Indeed, several of the countries

have set renewable energy

goals. Thailand, which has

the most advanced energy

infrastructure in the region,

recently announced a new

renewable energy goal to

build 3000 MW of solar by 2021.

The country expects feed-in

tariffs (FITs) for distributed

solar to spur about 1000 MW

of new development. The FIT

is designed to attract 200 MW

of rooftop solar by the end

of this year and 800 MW of

community ground-mounted

solar by the end of 2014.

Thailand has a goal to

expand its renewable energy

from 6.3 GW in 2011 to

20.5 GW, so that renewables

make up 29% of total

generating capacity by 2030.

Hydroelectricity now accounts

for about 5% of generation, and

non-hydroelectric renewables

(mostly biomass and biogas)

2%, according to the EIA.

Thailand is the furthest

along among the ASEAN

when it comes to introducing

on-site generation, according

to Suryadi.

Its progress stems back to

the government’s introduction

of the Small Power Producer

(SPP) programme in 1992, and

Very Small Power Producer

(VSPP) programme in 2001.

Under the programmes,

the state-owned Electricity

Generation Authority of

Thailand (Egat) was required

to purchase power from small

cogeneration or renewable

projects. Most of the resulting

projects were developed by

local companies to fulfl their

own energy needs.

Looking forward, Thailand

plans to continue to add

more CHP. From 2012 to 2019,

the government forecasts

that Thailand will add about

5100 MW of cogeneration,

with an additional 1368 MW

from 2020 to 2030, according

to Smart/Intelligent Grid

Systems Development and

Deployment, authored by

Samudrala and published

by the World Alliance for

Thai Decentralized Energy

Association.

In the Philippines, the

country’s Energy Regulatory

Commission (ERC) in July

issued new net metering

rules for on-site renewable

installations not exceeding

100 kW. And last year the ERC

approved a FIT for several

renewable energy resources,

including run-of-river hydro,

biomass, wind, and solar. The

fnal solar FIT of 9.69 PhP/kWh

($0.22/kWh) was far lower

than the originally proposed

17.95 PhP/kWh. ERC adjusted

the rate to account for

falling solar panel prices. The

government plans to review

the FIT rates in three years or

when the nation meets the

Department of Energy’s goals.

The Philippines is striving for

100% renewable generation

within a decade and hopes

to triple its renewable capacity

by 2030; it already gets more

than 50% of its electric supply

from geothermal, biomass and

hydro. The Philippines is the

second largest geothermal

generator, behind the US.

Indonesia, which has

about 43.5 GW of installed

capacity, gets about half of

its power from coal. Nine per

cent of its generation comes

10 GW to be completed by 2014

of clean energy sources, such

as natural gas, geothermal

and other renewable energies.

The country also has a FIT for

renewables that offers 15-year

contracts.

Distributed generation can

serve Indonesia in remote

locations where fuel delivery

is diffcult, according to a

report, Distributed Generation:

Indonesia View Point and

Case, by the Coordinating

Ministry of Economic Affairs.

The ministry also points to

non-intermittent decentralized

energy – such as small hydro –

as way to avert line losses and

improve voltage regulation

and grid stability. Indonesia

already has about 20 mini-

hydro stations in operation,

totalling about 44 kW, and

over 700 kW in various stages

of development. The country

also is pressing forward with

an aggressive concentrating

solar initiative.

The Future

While many of the countries

have renewable energy goals

that can help spur distributed

generation, it remains to be

seen if they can translate

goals into reality. ‘All of these

countries have excellent

renewable energy goals – on

paper’, Samudrala says.

ASEAN countries are trying

to better their overall power

sector by creating a regional

power grid across member

countries. The goal is to

improve energy supplies so

that the countries can both

meet growing demand and

promote cleaner energy.

Suryadi agrees that ‘the

spirit’ of the region favours

regional integration as the best

way to cope with its various

energy problems. This does

not mean that the region will

operate as one power entity,

but it is likely to consolidate into

sub-regions to pool indigenous

energy resources.

For example, the Mekong

Area, (Thailand, Cambodia,

Myanmar, Vietnam, Lao PDR)

are now working together to

develop large hydroelectricity,

he adds.

‘The spirit of energy market

integration will defnitely boost

the installation of on-site

generation in the region,” he

says. “A more open power

trade regime in the region will

encourage the development

of renewable sources such as

solar, hydro and wind for power

generation through on-site

generation. And hence the

total cost of meeting region-

wide electricity demand will

be reduced’.

But Suryadi is not saying

it will be easy. ‘The market

integration in the region

remains a challenging task,

especially to deal with the fast

growth of electricity demand in

all ASEAN member countries.’

FuelCell Energy’s Bottone

sees problems as well. ‘The

good news is that there is

probably demand in those

countries. The bad news is they

are not organized for it yet.’

FuelCell Energy, which

manufactures more than

50 MW of fuel cells per year

at its Torrington, Connecticut

plant in the US, has continued

to expand its infuence in Asia.

The company in late 2012

executed a series of strategic

initiatives with POSCO Energy,

including a license agreement

under which POSCO will

manufacture the company’s

complete carbonate fuel cell

technology in South Korea and

sell them throughout Asia.

POSCO Energy, Korea’s

largest independent

power producer, intends to

produce 140 MW of fuel cell

components annually. The

company expects to begin

manufacturing in early 2015.

But would Bottone tackle

another ‘launch and learn’ in

the ASEAN region if he had it

to all over again? Yes, he says,

that is the only way policy and

standards will improve and the

region’s markets grow. ‘These

Southeast Asian countries

have a need for a renewable

distributed energy strategy,

there is no question. The

question is when’.

Cogeneration & On–Site Power Production | September-October 2013 www.cospp.com22

In the early 1990s,

‘Power for a changing

world’ was a well-known

marketing slogan

used by Wärtsilä Power

Plants. Today that slogan

is even more appropriate,

especially in Europe, with

new renewable power

generation, such as wind

and solar, now a signifcant

part of the energy market.

The notable impact of

renewable production

changes many operational

set-ups, and presents new

challenges for the energy

industry. At the same time,

the European Commission

and European Parliament

have set, and will set forth,

energy strategies up to 2020

and 2050 that, in addition to

the use of renewable energy,

focus very much on carbon-

free, environmentally-friendly

power generation, and on

the effcient utilization of

primary fuels. This will involve

a major restructuring of the

conservative European energy

industry and market.

The work around these EU

strategies aims also to give a

well-defned framework, with

harmonized common rules

and regulations for the industry

to be equally applied in all

Member States, thus providing

the basis for investments and

healthy growth in the industry.

In order to fulfl these strategies,

new innovative solutions and

fexible multi-purpose plants

are needed in a transparent,

free-trade market with, to a

large extent, distributed energy

production.

Denmark is acknowledged

as being a frontrunner in

forming its own energy

laws, and at an early stage

adopted very liberalized rules

and regulations for its energy

industry.

Today, the country scores

very high marks for its amount

of installed renewable and

wind production, as well

as for its very effcient CHP

(combined heat and power)

electricity production, with

plants distributed evenly across

the entire country. Skagen

Varmeværk is a typical Danish

district heating company, with

its heat and power production

based to a large extent on a

gas engine plant using three

Denmark has taken a proactive role in adapting to the changing needs of the energy market. The rest of

CHP and Europe’s changing energy market

Wärtsilä 28SG generating

sets. This article looks at how

Skagen Varmeværk manages

this plant’s operations in a

modern liberalized Danish

energy market.

Danish district heating

The very frst district heating

system in Denmark was

established in the city of

Frederiksberg in the early

1900s. This lead was gradually

followed by other cities

across the country, and today

Denmark has more than 500

district heating plants. More

than half of Denmark’s energy

consumption for residential

heating is generated by

those district heating plants,

including Skagen Varmeværk.

All Danish district heating

plants are governed by a

district heating law that refects

the present energy policy of

the Danish parliament. These

regulations offer incentives for

energy effciency and, rather

importantly, ensure that the

Treasury Department collects

all the agreed energy taxes.

The law also states that district

heating companies are not

allowed to proft from heat

deliveries to its members.

Skagen Varmeværk began

operations in 1964 with

535 co-operative society

members. The district heat was

generated by a boiler plant

able to operate on fossil and

bio-oils. In 1979, by which time

the number of consumers had

grown to 1050, the municipality

of Skagen commissioned a

waste incineration plant that

was connected to the district

heating system. Fiskernes

Fiskeindustri, a private

company, started the delivery

of waste process heat to the

district heating system in 1982.

Skagen Varmeværk was

connected to the national

gas grid system in 1988,

where a new boiler station,

operating on natural gas

was commissioned. Precisely

ten years later it was time to

commission the fully automatic

combined heat and power

station.

The plant was designed for

automatic mode, enabling

unattended operation outside

normal working hours, when

the command for starting and

stopping the plant is shifted to

the dispatch centre.

Skagen Varmeværk

The company is responsible

for supplying district heating

to the town of Skagen, the

most northern town in Jutland.

In winter, its 8400 inhabitants

enjoy a quiet life with little traffc

and few crowds. However, in the

summertime it is transformed

into a very crowded, and

popular place. This ability to

adapt to the rapid changes in

the surrounding environment

seems also to have become

part of Skagen Varmeværk’s

business philosophy.

The CHP plant is equipped

with effcient heat recovery

that reaches a total effciency

that exceeds 90%. Even

though the plant is 15 years

old, its performance remains

very good compared to other

modern power plants. The

engines were upgraded a

few years ago to achieve a

higher output and improve

performance.

The plant not only produces

heat for the city and power

for the distribution system

operator, but also actively

participates in the Danish

electricity regulating and

primary reserve/frequency

balancing markets.

To handle these

simultaneous production

requirements effectively, highly

fexible operation, short start-up

and shutdown capability, as

well as operator alertness,

are essential. The plant is,

therefore, equipped with: hot

water boilers operating on

natural gas and prepared for

the possible use of bio-oils and

fuel oils; an electrical hot water

boiler operating in parallel

with the gas engines; and

of course with heat storage

or an accumulator. All these

units allow very fexible and

environmentally-sustainable

production.

In addition to its own

production, a municipal waste

incineration plant and a

nearby industry are delivering

heat to the common Skagen

district heating network. The

waste incineration plant is

run as a baseload plant and

provides stable year-round

heat production. The heat from

the industrial plant is delivered

on a more occasional basis,

refecting the industry’s own

schedules and working hours.

One of the three Wärtsilä 28SG generating sets that power the CHP plant

Denmark is acknowledged as

being a frontrunner in forming its

own energy laws, and at an early

stage adopted very liberalized

rules and regulations for its

energy industry

CHP and Europe’s changing energy market

These two additional heat

sources adequately fulfl the

city’s minimum heat demand

during the summer period.

Skagen Varmeværk

maintains its plant in good

condition and constantly

develops its operations to

be more effcient. Danes

in general are very energy

conscious and strive always to

utilize the full energy content of

the primary fuel for production.

There are even governmental

rules on how to continuously

improve CHP plant operations,

as well as for how consumers

can save energy.

Recent investments in

the Skagen plant include

new absorption chillers

installed after the exhaust

gas economizers. These

squeeze out even more

heat from the gas engine

exhaust gases to gain total

plant effciencies reaching

greater than 100%, calculated

on the lower heating value.

Furthermore, the heat

storage capacity has been

drastically increased by an

additional heat accumulator

of 350 MWhth to achieve even

greater fexibility for the plant

on the power markets. The

bigger heat storage capacity

between the heat production

and the district heating

network naturally adds

more operational freedom.

Managing production

Like all district heating

companies, Skagen

Varmeværk delivers heat

according to the demand at

the lowest possible cost. The

required heat production,

therefore, provides the

framework within which

electricity can be produced, for

participating in the regulating

and primary reserve markets.

Thus, production planning

demands a good knowledge

of the plant’s capabilities, as

well as good forecasting of

market behaviour.

All the above mentioned

production units are jointly

utilized in an optimal way,

based upon their specifc

operational characteristics

and upon market conditions

and fuctuations. The plant

operates very much on the

day-ahead estimates of

the heat demand, and the

regulating and frequency

balancing markets.

Depending on the balance

between these two electricity

markets, the running strategy

is somewhat different and

involves co-operation with

the dispatch centre for the

area and the other power

producers.

The predicted heat

consumption is fexibly

managed through the heat

accumulators, and provides

the framework as to how the

gas engines could or should

be run. The varying daily

spot prices on the regulating

and reserve markets have,

of course, an impact on the

running philosophy, and the

goal is always to produce

electricity when the spot prices

are high.

When operating in these

two electricity markets, the gas

engine characteristics prove to

be highly valuable. The primary

reserve market demands

fast starts and stops, and the

engines can cope with that.

In the regulating market, the

engines are run at about

70–80% load, where again

the gas engines’ high and

constant part load effciency is

invaluable.

If it is not worthwhile to run

the engines, the corresponding

heat can be produced by

the gas boiler or even with

the electrical boiler, provided

that the electricity spot prices

and the electrical network

balances are favourable.

The 11 MWe electrical boiler

is designed to have a large

operating window, and can

in that way also participate

in the electricity markets as

a load. The excess electricity

from the renewable energy

production can, therefore, also

be dumped into the electrical

boiler and further into the

heat accumulator. Electricity

production is of course closely

coordinated together with

the electricity operator for the

district or area.

The fgure on p.26 is of

a typical production track

record for the heat production

during a full calendar week.

The diagram shows also the

spot prices on the electricity

markets, the regulating and

power reserve markets, heat

demand and production, as

well as the level of stored heat

in the heat accumulator.

number of daily starts and stops.

Normally though, as indicated in

the diagram, once or twice a

day is enough. The marginal

cost of the plant, in conjunction

with the electricity spot prices

and possible ancillary service,

forms the operation profle.

Electricity spot prices decrease

at night and the engines

are usually stopped. In this

operational mode, the total

yearly running hours of the

engines are nowadays around

2000 hours. The engines are

seldom run during weekends

when the electricity spot prices

are low.

From the fgure above, you

can also see that the electrical

boiler is operating mainly

during the night and is then

participating in both of the

electricity markets. It is able to

act fast as a load for getting rid

of excess electricity in the grid,

or to control the frequency

of the grid. The heat from this

boiler is fed to storage and to

the district heating network.

New harmonized rules

The European Energy Strategy

2020 identifes energy effciency

as one of the key priorities of

the EU’s energy policy. The 20%

goal for renewable energy is

broadly on track, while the 20%

primary energy saving target is

still a long way off. The recently

agreed Energy Effciency

Directive (EED) aims to give

new momentum to energy

effciency measures.

The EED is expected to

recognize that the anticipated

strong growth of renewable

power creates a need to

also include high-effciency

cogeneration plants in grid

stability management, and

in the electrical ancillary

service market. Unnecessary

obstacles for accessing the

grid and the ancillary service

market should be removed by

the member states.

Cogeneration and CHP in

plants with fexible running

patterns by necessity demand

heat storage, which the EED

highlights as an area requiring

development. In situations

with for instance, excess wind

power, this energy could be

stored for heating purposes.

Engine plants easily fulfl the

“high effciency cogeneration”

criteria presented in the

EED, as well as fast start-up

and turn down capabilities.

Furthermore, compared to

pure peaking plants, the

annual electrical effciency

can be slightly increased in

cogeneration plants because

of the possibility of using the

stored heat for preheating

engines on standby.

The EED is now going forward

within the EU, and will fnally be

approved in the EU Parliament.

After this approval the EED

goes for implementation by

the EU Member States. The

member states are then to

incorporate the EED into their

own laws and regulations.

In order to fulfl the EU’s

energy policy and strategies,

there are a number of

different rules and regulations

being worked on in order to

harmonize the systems and

operations between member

states. The harmonisation

of all the different network

codes for the power and

electricity industry will

provide a framework for the

whole Europe. The intention

is that electricity trading

between member states,

between transmission system

operators, and between

distribution system operators,

runs smoothly and fuently

throughout Europe.

Advanced thinking

Skagen Varmeværk also has

recently invested in a new,

very modern offce building,

which naturally includes a

sophisticated HVAC system.

The ground beneath the plant

and offce is somewhat special

and can be utilized via heat

pumps for both the heating

and cooling of buildings, and

this characteristic is used for

the new offce building as well.

During the winter period

and cold season, the heat in

the ground is ‘pumped up’ for

heating the building. This of

course cools down the ground

and soil, which can then be

utilized for cooling down these

facilities during the summer.

During the hot season, when

the soil becomes heated it can

then be used for the coming

autumn and winter. The soil

therefore acts as a small heat

storage system.

Denmark has realized that

energy is a big consideration

for industry as a whole, and

for all its various activities. This

attitude and mature energy

thinking should therefore be

implemented everywhere.

Smarter power generation,

combined with district heating

solution, is undoubtedly a

sensible choice for the future.

Stable growth is predicted for the global power plant services and maintenance market

over the coming years. Dr. Heather Johnstone fnds out if this is refected in the services

and maintenance market serving the decentralized energy market, in particular the

industrial gas turbine (IGT).

Bright future for IGT services &

Cogeneration & On–Site Power Production | September-October 2013 www.cospp.com28

IGT services & maintenance market

T‘he services and

maintenance sector

serving all forms of

power generation in

Western Europe is expected

to generate yearly revenues

that top $2.8 billion in 2018;

up 14% on 2011 revenues,

and thereby representing a

stable rate of growth over

the next fve years. This was

the main fnding of research

conducted by Frost &

Sullivan, a market analyst

company, last year.

According to Neelan Patil,

a research analysts at Frost &

Sullivan, ‘a key market driver’

of this growth will be Western

Europe’s ‘aging feet of

power plants’ leading to new

capacity additions – shifting

from large, steam-fred power

generation facilities to more

compact, effcient gas-fred

combined-cycle power plants.

He adds: ‘The continued

trend of LTSAs [long-term

service agreements] for gas

turbines, and the willingness

of [customers] to outsource

operations and maintenance

activities to third-party

providers will also drive revenue

growth for services.’

So the services sector

serving the global power

generation industry appears

to be in the best of health now

and over the course of this

decade. Is this same growth

trend refected in the services

and maintenance sector

that serves our decentralized

energy assets, in particular the

industrial gas turbine (IGT)?

Main drivers of growth

According to Alina Bakhareva,

a research manager a Frost &

Sullivan, the simple answer is

yes, So if this is the case, what

Cogeneration & On–Site Power Production | September-October 2013 www.cospp.com30

IGT services & maintenance market

are the main drivers behind

the growth?

Focusing on Europe,

Bakhareva says, ‘15-20 years

ago the liberalization of many

markets in the region provided

the opportunity for large

industrial energy consumers

to build and operate their own

power plants, many of which

were gas turbine based’.

This meant that OEMs’

activity was mainly focused on

equipment sales, with relatively

little attention paid to servicing

and maintenance. According

to Bakhareva, aftermarket

servicing ‘was not part of their

strategies and not part of their

development efforts’.

However, since the

economic crisis hit in Europe

there has been ‘a massive shift

in the gas-fred decentralized

energy sector away from

equipment sales and towards

servicing’, says Bakhareva.

The subsequent slowdown

in the equipment sales

segment has undoubtedly

made OEMs reconsider their

strategies in aftermarket

servicing and maintenance,

which offers an opportunity to

boost revenues.

‘This has resulted in a

heating up of the competition

in the services sector’, says

Bakhareva, ‘with OEMs

and independent services

providers (ISPs), as well as

some customers carrying out

servicing themselves.’

Bakhareva also believes

the industrial customer is

also driving the growth in

the sector, especially for IGTs.

Faced with rising fuel costs,

especially outside of the US, as

well as growing environmental

pressures, large industrial

facilities are keen to identify

ways to run their existing

assets in the most economical

and environmentally-friendly

manner. And that is where the

aftermarket service providers

are stepping in.

For example, there is

now greater interest from

industrial self-generators on

how predictive maintenance

can help reduce equipment

downtime. ‘With advances in

sensors, wireless technology

and software, it would be

silly for them not to take

advantage,’ says Bakhareva.

For an ISP’s perspective,

Cogeneration & On-Site Power

Production spoke with Iain

Murray, president of Wood

Group GTS’ Oil, Gas & Industrial

Services division.

He is similarly bullish about

the growth prospects in the

decentralized energy servicing

sector, and not just in Europe

and North America, but also in

many developing regions.

He believes that in terms of

the industrial sector, a global

economic recovery, additional

production capacity and

equipment reliability will be

their main concerns over the

next fve to 10 years, which in

turn will have an impact on the

servicing and maintenance

segment.

Murray also foresees shale

gas having a signifcant

role to play in this segment,

although at the moment this

is only visible in the US where

shale gas has become an

unstoppable force in the

country’s energy sector.

According to Murray, ‘We see

shale gas as a game-changer

in the industrial segment. It

pretty much means that most

regions, eventually, will have

cheaper gas, giving clients the

opportunity to install gas-fred

power generation on-site.’

And if you combine that with

the aging transmission grids,

he anticipates more industrial

clients will look to install small

gas turbine powered units

at their sites, which will open

up more opportunities for the

servicing sector

Although the US is 3-5 years

ahead of everywhere else in

terms of getting shale gas to

market and achieving cultural

willingness to take advantage

of shale gas, Murray says

‘China, with signifcant shale

gas deposits, is playing

catch-up fast.’

He anticipates that the

‘two biggest energy demand

regions – US and China – will

be self-suffcient on natural gas

in the next fve years’.

Another interesting point

Murray raises is that in the two

main sectors Wood Group GTS

serves – oil & gas and industrial

– the drivers in terms of services

and maintenance are very

different at the moment.

‘In the oil & gas sector,

where oil is now in the region

of US$110/barrels when

historically it has been at

$80 or below, these clients

are essentially making more

money than they know what

do with, so their only real driver

at the moment is ensuring

reliability’,

‘That doesn’t mean they do

not care about the cost when

it comes to their service and

maintenance needs, but they

are not price sensitive,’ he says

‘Yet on the industrial side,

we are seeing an increase in

interest in our independent

offerings because we are a

second or third item on a

factory or facility’s budget

so they are looking around

and saying we need to get

some money out of this cost

structure.

‘So we are now seeing

companies who probably

wouldn’t have talked to us two

or three years ago coming

in and testing the water on

what an alternative solution

would look like: Is it technically

comparable? Is the service

level comparable? And if so, is

there a cost saving?’

It appears that despite

much of the world continuing

to experience the challenges

of an economic downturn

business is booming for ISPs.

Constraints to growth

However, before we become

carried away with all this

positivity, it would be fanciful

to believe no barriers exist to

the development of the IGT

services and maintenance

sector.

In Bakhareva’s opinion, one

of the constraints facing the

sector is that some industrial

clients may not be familiar with

the benefts that outsourcing

equipment servicing can bring.

As she says, ‘they may not

have the internal capabilities

to compare different servicing

models and because they

are accustomed to doing

everything in-house with their

own teams they may not be

willing to consider outsourcing

this function’.

This is clearly less of an issue

in Europe and North America

because clients, such as oil &

gas majors or large chemical

manufacturers, are familiar

with the outsourcing concept.

However, Bakhareva says,

‘as you move further east,

towards Eastern Europe,

Russia and the CIS, many

of the companies remain

rooted in an old-fashioned

way of thinking’. In Russia,

for example, despite many

large industrial companies

having spun-off their servicing

division, the market for services

and maintenance is not fully

competitive yet.

So although servicing can

be carried out by a separate

legal entity, in reality historic

ties between the customer

and the service provider mean

that the former is unlikely to

consider holding an open

tender and inviting other ISPs

to participate.

Thus, a cultural change

needs to take place here. Is

this happening? Bakhareva

believes progress, albeit slow, is

being made.

She holds up Sulzer Turbo as

success story. In 2011, the Swiss

ISP established a partnership

with Urals Turbine Works, and

now is essentially one of

few foreign ISPs successfully

operating in the Russian

market.

She suggests that this

should be viewed as a

successful working business

model for services companies

interested in entering these

eastern markets.

As an ISP, Murray says

‘your technical credibility is

paramount’.

‘When speaking to a client,

questions that will be front of

mind are: Can you do this? If

I give you this maintenance

contract will my turbines

still run? Will my unplanned

outage be resolved as quickly

as with the OEM?’ he says.

The belief that the OEM is

the only one who knows the

equipment and therefore the

only one who can look after

it still exists. ‘And this barrier

needs to be knocked down,’

Murray adds.

‘Thus as an independent

we put a lot of emphasis on

our technical expertise – we

demonstrate we do more than

a ‘me too’ service. We ensure

we know how the engine

works and how to optimize its

performance,’ he says.

And to the future?

Looking longer term, say

over the next 10 to 15 years,

should we be optimistic about

the continued growth of the

sector?

Murray is defnitely

optimistic about the future

of his business. He expects

gas-fred power generation to

play a greater role in energy.

And once global gas at a

reasonable price is achieved

clients will be attracted to

gas-fred power generation

resulting in a growing installed

base of smaller machines

and demand for at least one

or two ISPs. Bakhareva is more

reserved in her response but

concurs that the future is

looking bright for this sector.

Cogeneration & On–Site Power Production | September-October 2013 www.cospp.com34

Fuel fexible industrial cogeneration

South Korea’s decades

long economic

development has

created a great need

in the country for the products

of petrochemical plants.

One such facility is the $7.5

billion, 1.9 km2 plant in the

city of Yeosu in South Jeolla

province, owned by Lotte

Chemical (formerly Honam

Petrochemical Company).

In a drive to help maintain

its business competitiveness,

Lotte modernized the facility’s

energy generation equipment,

a move in which cogeneration

plays a pivotal role.

CHP at the complex

produces power and steam

for internal petrochemical

processes, but it does so by

burning an alternative fuel,

the use of which has saved

energy, improved operational

fexibility and optimized the

facility’s energy balance.

This is despite the huge

fnancial stake in the correct,

uninterrupted operation

of Yeosu’s petrochemical

processes, which run 24/7 all

year round, which mean that

that part of the complex that

manages the supply of power

and heat to processes has key

responsibilities.

Yeosu has been running

since 1976. Its operations

revolve around an olefns plant

that cracks naphtha to make

chemicals such as ethylene

– its 1000 ktonnes/y output

is part of the 3600 ktonnes/y

total petrochemicals output of

the complex.

Modern petrochemical

plants use large amounts of

energy, with a heat/power ratio

that is high and variable. Gas

turbine-based cogeneration

units are well suited to such

plants because of their

effciency, emissions controls

and operational versatility.

Cogeneration at the Yeosu

complex comes from its

utilities facility, to which Lotte

added an effcient CHP unit of

190 MWth in 2002. It includes a

40 MW Frame 6B or MS 6001B

heavy-duty gas turbine from

GE, made in Belfort, France.

This E-class machine helps

create steam at a rate of

75 tonnes/h, rising to a peak

rate of 170 tonnes/h.

Thermal demand from the

complex’s various processes

totals 275 MW. This includes

self-generated process heat

and the 63 MWth delivered by

cogeneration. Average power

consumption at the complex

is 150 MWe, of which Lotte self-

generates 67 MWe, and the

grid supplies 85 MWe.

As indicated above, the

petrochemical units absorb

a large amount of heat and

generate their own. Much

of the generated heat feeds

steam pressure networks.

Among the 275 MWth of steam

consumed by the complex, 8%

is at the very high pressure

of 12,400 kPa and at 525°C,

40% is high-pressure steam

at 4100 kPa and 375°C, 22%

is medium-pressure steam

at 1600 kPa and 275°C, and

30% is low-pressure steam at

450 kPa and 185°C.

The complex’s requirement

for high-pressure steam made

gas turbine cogeneration

options all the more attractive.

Figure 1 is a schematic of the

Frame 6B-based cogeneration

unit at Yeosu. These steam and

power facilities let the complex

operate at a large fraction of

full capacity autonomously

even when grid power is lost.

The Frame 6B has been

running at the complex’s

utilities facility since 2003. This

turbine and its heat recovery

steam generator (HRSG)

raised power generated there

from 25 MWe to 67 MWe, which

Heavy-duty gas turbines can enable CHP plants to burn process by-products that might otherwise be a

liability. Yoon-Ho Lee, Michel Moliere and Heung-Yub Ahn describe the design and operational experience

of one such cogeneration facility at a petrochemical complex in South Korea.

Fuel fexible industrial cogeneration

brought the self-production

ratio to nearly 45% in 2012. It

also added the peak steam-

generation capacity.

Between March 2003 and

June 2013, the turbine clocked

87,000 hours of operation and

accommodated a projected

shutdown schedule. Over that

time it burnt 888,000 tonnes of

C9+ hydrocarbons as fuel and

only circa (c.a.) 270 tonnes

of gasoil. It also generated

3000 GWhe and, through its

HRSG, some c.a. 7,200,000

tonnes of steam.

The turbine usually runs

continuously all year. Its

availability was 96% and 98%

in 2009 and 2010, respectively;

years when combustion

inspections occurred. A major

inspection in April and May

2011 meant availability was

92% in that year. As far as

trouble-shooting is concerned,

there has been no operational

combustion issue to-date.

Table 1 summarizes the

main operational data of the

plant from 2003 to 2012. The

operation time on backup fuel

was less than 0.1%.

Fuel fexibility

But where Yeosu’s CHP

facility leads the world is in

its commercial use of C9+

aromatics by-products as fuel

Petrochemical plants

employ large cracking units

that require signifcant volumes

of noble hydrocarbons as feed-

stocks. The crackers convert

these costly compounds into

olefns, which are the raw

materials for organic synthesis

and polymerization. A major

strategy of the Yeosu complex

was to use the C9+ aromatics

by-products of this process as

the primary energy source for

cogeneration and thereby

maximize their use.

The economics of using

these secondary energy

resources and to strictly limit

the use of any other

commercial fuel are

favourable, a general rule that

applies to all CHP projects in

petrochemicals aaplications.

Generally the requirements

for an ideal alternative

fuel for captive generation

are exacting: low, ideally

negative commercial value;

characteristics outside normal

commercial specifcations;

and unfeasibility of sale. But

technical and environmental

aspects are important too.

There must be compatibility

between the fuel and the

prime mover, the available

volume of fuel must match the

targeted CHP capacity and the

prime mover must be capable

of mixed-fuel operation. Also

data on emissions of pollutants

must be acceptable. Heavy-

duty gas turbines have many

advantages here.

In the case of GE’s E-class

units, which include the Frame

6B, 7E and 125 MWe ISO 9E, they

have demonstrated the ability

to accommodate a wide

range of gas and liquid fuels, a

quality allowed by the physics

of combustion in gas turbines.

These fuels vary from LPG1 to

distillates2,3, ash-forming fuels4

and fuels that are by-products

of industrial processes. Figure

2 shows how heavy-duty gas

turbines can burn a wide

range of fuels2.

Gas turbines are

continuous-fow, steady-fame

machines that create no

special ignition requirements

on, for example, the octane and

cetane indexes. They also emit

negligible amounts of volatile

organic compounds (VOCs),

unburned hydrocarbons (UHC)

and soot over a wide load

range. They can also use the

universal de-NOx method of the

injection of steam and water,

and their dual-fuel capability

is unprecedented because

fuel transfers can be automatic

and virtually transparent.

However, in practice the

range of alternative fuels

that are accessible depends

on combustion designs, the

experience of the OEM and

its commitment to tackling

challenging applications.

At Yeosu the challenge was

to make the complex’s exotic

C9+ aromatics by-product

the main fuel, while using

gasoil only for startups and

shutdowns.

C9+ aromatics are blends

of liquid hydrocarbons, 80%

of which are aromatics.

Heavy-duty gas turbines burn

aromatic fuels cleanly thanks

to their steady combustion

regime, their hot and lean

diffusion fames and their very

oxidizing combustion zones5.

These fractions are not suitable

for other prime movers such as

reciprocating engines.

Fuels may be classifed as

gaseous, with high, medium or

low BTU properties, and liquids,

with the C9+ aromatics lying in

the region of naphtha fuels.

Although the Frame 6B

is a heavy-duty gas turbine

with can-annular combustors

that have combustion traits

favourable to burning highly

aromatic fractions, such fuels

do pose certain challenges.

The mixed fuel oil that the Frame

6B uses at Yeosu comprises

C9+ mono-aromatics and

C6-C8 non-aromatics.

Mono-aromatics are volatile

and non-lubricious and

Fuel fexible industrial cogeneration

require similar engineering

measures as naphtha3,6,7.

They also have higher auto-

ignition temperatures and

worse smoke numbers than

homologous paraffnic

compounds.

Petrochemical plants use

by-product mono-aromatics

as feedstocks. But fuctuating

demand for petrochemical

products can lead to excesses

of these fractions. Export of

these surpluses can be costly

or a logistical problem, so their

use in on-site power generation

is helpful.

But the fames of liquid

fuels, aromatics in particular,

make combustion more

complicated compared

with gas. Although aromatic

fuels are very fuid, which

means they do not suffer

from incomplete vaporization

during combustion – unlike

viscous fuels – and the

resulting soot when unburned

droplets leave the combustors,

a chemical limitation to their

combustion is still likely.

Combustion of liquid fuel

comprises two competing

main mechanisms: repetitive

cracking-oxidation that

leads to the formation of CO2

and H2O, and pyrolysis, in

which polycyclic structures

form, followed by soot in the

micron-range size. This second

mechanism is favoured in

oxygen-depleted zones of

the combustion zone. Figure

3 illustrates what happens in

the case of three types of C10

hydrocarbon chains.

Table 2 summarises the

infuence of the properties

of liquid fuels on gas turbine

combustion and emissions.

A feld test using a so-called

benzene heart cut was

performed in a Frame 6B to

assess the feasibility of burning

mono-aromatic hydrocarbons.

It showed that burning mono-

aromatic fuels cleanly is

possible. Table 3 displays the

analysis8.

Another major beneft of

burning C9+ aromatics is that

combustion leads to emissions

of only moderate amounts

of CO2. At Yeosu it has also

cut SO2 emissions by 750

tonnes ,compared with 0.1%

sulphur diesel oil since the

commissioning of the turbine.

Prime mover selection

The Frame 6B has also

demonstrated its ability

to match the stringent

expectations of the

petrochemical community in

terms of effciency, availability

and reliability.

The turbine has its own

control system, which is

integrated into the DCS, and

the unit reacts more quickly to

restarts or load changes than

steam-based units. Also the

loading of the supplementary

fring in the HRSG is much faster

compared with a conventional

oil-fred boiler. Finally the

petrochemical complex has

also become less vulnerable

to disconnection from the

electricity grid or boiler trips.

If grid power fails, the Frame

6B goes from ‘droop’ mode

to ‘island’ mode, while other

generators would stay in the

droop mode. The complex also

protects vital upstream units

by automatically changnig its

electricity frequency reference

from the grid to the main

generator.

Experience with the Frame

6B has showed that it would

meet the requirements of the

plant designers. The prime

mover had to be of a reliable

and robust technology, with an

H/P ratio of 1.5:1, operational

fexibility that allowed fast starts

and load changes, highly

standardized maintenance,

and a large fuel experience

base.

compressor, a robust and

versatile combustion system,

with 10 can-annular chambers

and a three-stage expansion

turbine. Regular performance

upgrades have increased

its output from 36 MW to the

42 MW of the latest PG 6581B

model. It has also had gradual

upgrades to its hardware.

The turbine can operate

in a wide spectrum of power

generation confgurations – in

simple and combined cycles.

Each turbine generation

set constitutes an individual

module that has the qualities

of start-up agility, rapid

installation indoors or outdoors,

a low footprint and a simple

maintenance programme.

The fast start-up sequence

enables synchronization with

the grid within 12 minutes

and access to full load

after a further 4 minutes.

This capability is paramount

in peak-shaving, but also

valuable in cogeneration

when provision has been

made for a bypass stack.

Concerning emissions

performance, the Frame 6B

can achieve very low NOX

emissions5 – 25 ppmV of NOx

either via a dry low NOx system

(natural gas fring) or by

‘wet control’ consisting of the

injection of a diluent, usually

steam or liquid water, into the

gas turbine combustors.

At Lotte, the combustion

of C9+ aromatics required

the use of diffusion fame

combustors for which the usual

NOx abatement technique

is by the injection of water or

steam.

NOx emissions of the Frame

6B while burning C9+ aromatics

and running at baseload are

around 300 ppmV. Yeosu had

used a steam injection system

since the frst operation of the

turbine in 2003 to cut NOx to

55 ppmV, in line with the Korean

limit. However, in 2008 Lotte

changed the diluent to water to

improve energy effectiveness.

NOx emissions are now

40 ppmV (at 15% O2 in the

exhaust gas).

To maintain performance

over time, the Frame 6B

has an online/offine water

washing skid. Off-line washing

occurs only during scheduled

shutdowns as this minimizes

costly downtime. On-line

washing is performed every

day.

The HRSG used in the

CHP plant is a horizontal,

natural circulation boiler

from Daekyung Machinery &

Engineering that produces

75 tonnes/h of steam from

the average 95 MW of heat

captured from the gas turbine.

It is equipped with duct

burners to provide additional

and automatic fring to more

than double its output to

170 tonnes/h of steam in

5 minutes.

Trailblazing alternative

fuel use

The cogeneration unit’s results

are mainly down to four

converging factors. The frst is a

relevant, maintenance-based

operational policy. Second

and third are the potential of

the Frame 6B and the intensive

exploitation of this potential

by experienced engineering

teams that have regularly

embarked on challenging

applications in new and

upgrade projects. Fourth is

the pro-active plant

management that has

anticipated seasonal and

long-term changes in demand

for heat and power.

More than 60% of aromatics

at the complex are used

routinely and reliably. Yeosu

represents an inroad into the

general use of such fuels and

another milestone on the way

to adapting power generation

to the fuel mixes of the future.

Novel, cost-effective fuel cell technology

Hydrogen fuel

cells might be

most commonly

thought of in

conjunction with cars but

they can also provide

electricity for stationary

power systems. The US

Department of Energy

reported in 2011 that

approximately 15,000 fuel

cells were shipped globally

in 2010 – more than a 40%

growth since 2008.

Fuel cells are portable and

can be transported easily, they

are silent in operation (so ideal

for use in or near residential

areas) and they can be used

either for continuous power

or as emergency back-up

systems.

The ‘plug-and-play’ nature

of a fuel cell also means that

they can be used to replace

or supplement the grid

infrastructure, or help meet

peak grid demands.

However, you could argue

that the biggest advantage

of fuel cells is actually the fuel

they use – hydrogen.

Hydrogen is a very high-

energy fuel and is the most

abundant energy source

on the planet. Fuel cells are

the highly-effcient way of

converting a fuel into electrical

energy because they do it in

one step. Hydrogen fuel cells

have a theoretical maximum

energy conversion effciency

of more than 75%: nearly twice

as effcient as a gas turbine

when it comes to generator

technologies. It is a clean,

non-polluting fuel, and is a

common by-product of many

industrial processes. There

is therefore huge potential

to use hydrogen as a clean

stationary power source.

The genius of hydrogen is that

it can also play into the wider

energy production picture.

renewable power, such as

solar or wind, is dogged by

supply and demand problems.

For example, on a very windy

day, a wind farm will produce

more power than is needed, so

this excess capacity will go to

waste.

But this excess power could

be used instead to power an

electrolyser, creating hydrogen

as a means of storing the

energy. A cell voltage of about

1.5V is enough to allow an

electrolyser to split water into

hydrogen and oxygen, so

it is a very easy and simple

way to extract hydrogen. This

is why German utilities are

already using electrolysers to

make hydrogen from their

surplus renewable energy.

In this manner, fuel cells act

just like normal batteries –

providing portable, storable

power that can be accessed

on demand.

Hydrogen is also a waste

product from a variety of

industrial processes, the

largest being the chlor-alkali

industry, which produces

more than 100,000 tonnes

of waste hydrogen per year,

which equates to more than

100 million gallons of petrol.

With little market for the

element, the hydrogen is

usually released, unused, back

into the atmosphere.

However, if there was

demand from fuel cell users,

the chemicals industry could

sell their waste hydrogen

instead, thus creating a

new revenue stream. One

kilogramme of hydrogen

provides roughly the same

energy as one gallon of petrol.

Hydrogen fuel cells can also

be used for combined heat

and power (CHP) applications

– either domestically or

commercially.

This ‘hydrogen economy’

model is attractive because

it works in symbiosis with

other established sectors.

This in turn helps establish

a well-distributed hydrogen

infrastructure, which can

link into existing or potential

hydrogen producers. So

whether you are operating

a telecom base station, a

chemical plant or a sewage

treatment works, you should

fnd it easy to access a source

of hydrogen or potentially, as in

the case of a chemical plant,

use what would otherwise go

to waste.

But although hydrogen

makes an undeniably

excellent fuel, a number of

stumbling blocks associated

with standard hydrogen fuel

cells have held back the

widespread adoption of the

technology.

Standard proton exchange

membrane (PEM) fuel cells

are expensive, and contain

fragile components that

degrade quickly. The key

component that makes up the

PEM fuel cell is also its Achilles’

heel – the platinum catalyst

assembly within the stack,

which facilitates the reaction

to produce electricity, is easily

damaged. This limitation,

coupled with the fact that

the stack contributes up to

50% of the cost of the entire

device, signifcantly limits

the technology. These issues

need to be addressed if the

hydrogen fuel cell has any

chance of becoming a viable

technology for mass-market

adoption.

Revolutionary approach

To tackle this problem, we

developed a revolutionary

new approach to fuel cell

technology. ACAL Energy-

designed PEM fuel cells are

cheaper and more durable

than any other hydrogen fuel

cell currently on the market.

With the ACAL Energy

technology, a liquid catalyst –

FlowCath® – replaces up to 80%

of the platinum catalyst found

in standard PEM fuel cells.

This involved re-engineering

the cathode (air) side of

the fuel cell; removing the

platinum and replacing it

with a polyoxometalate liquid

chemical solution – coined the

‘secret sauce’.

The advantages of this

design technology are

two-fold. In a standard PEM fuel

cell, the cathode side of the

cell (just 30% of the system)

contributes 80% of the cost and

is responsible for 99% of the

durability issues. Because our

architecture modifes this part

of the system, it signifcantly

enhances durability and

reduces costs.

There are a number of

durability mechanisms that the

new technology addresses.

Firstly the polyoxometalate

is highly stable and does

not degrade. In addition, no

damaging intermediates

in the reaction with air are

formed in the cell which

normally would degrade the

catalyst assembly.

In standard PEM fuel cells,

as the fuel and oxygen are

pumped into the system, the

membrane within the cell

stack starts to degrade and the

system wears down. As the fuel

cell is switched on and off, the

membrane moves between a

dry and wet state. This cycling

causes dimensional change

and can lead to damage,

which signifcantly limits the

membrane’s lifetime.

In contrast, FlowCath – the

liquid catalyst – dramatically

improves the fuel cell’s

durability. In the ACAL Energy

system, the liquid catalyst

is always in contact with

the membrane so it avoids

such extremes and therefore

lengthens the fuel cell’s

lifespan.

This in turn enables the

system to operate at a higher

temperature than would

normally be the case for

stationary applications. The

hotter the fuel cell system, the

higher the rate of heat loss. The

ACAL Energy system operates

At the heart of ACAL Energy’s fuel cell system is FlowCath, a liquid catalyst that replaces up to 80% of the conventional platinum catalyst

Cogeneration & On–Site Power Production | September-October 2013 www.cospp.com40

Novel, cost-effective fuel cell technology

at around 110°C, signifcantly

higher than the 70°C

normally observed. The higher

temperature and robustness

enables the fuel cell to operate

at a higher power density.

Because the increased

temperature increases the

rate of heat loss, a simpler

and cheaper heat exchange

system is needed. For CHP

systems, a more effective heat

transfer is enabled, making the

system more effcient and less

expensive. The advantages

offered by our technology

mean that the FlowCath

technology can be used for

stationary applications such

as in data centres, schools,

hospitals, utilities, fxed line

operators and telecom base

stations at much lower cost.

This has not previously been

feasible; up until now, longevity

and durability had only been

possible with large amounts of

platinum, which then makes

the fuel cells prohibitively

expensive for mass-market

deployment and use.

ACAL Energy’s technology

has effectively broken these

old rules.

Durability testing

The ACAL Energy fuel cell

technology has undergone

robust durability testing in both

stationary and automotive

applications. Of greatest

signifcance, the technology

has been tested using an

automotive standard test

designed to push a fuel cell to

its very limits. Our technology

has exhibited no signifcant

signs of degradation during the

tests and the same trajectory is

expected in stationary power

system testing.

The hydrogen fuel cell

has reached 10,000 hours,

equivalent to 300,000

road miles, in a simulated

automotive industry test

consisting of a repeated

40-minute journey without

signifcant sign of degradation.

These results out-perform the

previous industry benchmark

of 5000 hours of testing with

20% degradation. Standard

PEM systems tend to decay at a

constant rate at approximately

30 µV/h whereas the FlowCath

system shows no change for

8000 hours.

Concurrent stationary

testing has also been running

alongside the automotive

application. So far, the cell

has reached over 5000 hours;

although somewhat behind

the duration of the automotive

test, the cell has not exhibited

any decline in performance.

On the basis of the results

observed in the (signifcantly

more demanding) automotive

test, one would certainly

expect the stationary cell to

demonstrate equally robust

results and for these results to

follow the same trajectory.

With the ACAL Energy

technology, the same

fundamental system can be

deployed in both stationary

and automotive applications.

FlowCath provides the

levels of high durability and

stability required in stationary

applications and the power

density and size associated

with automotive applications.

As a result, the technology can

offer stationary durability at

lower automotive price points.

Going commercial

After eight years of research

and development – possible

due to funding from investors

such as the Carbon Trust,

Solvay Chemicals Group and

the Sumitomo Corporation

– ACAL Energy is currently

negotiating contracts with a

number of large energy and

automotive companies –

leaders in the deployment of

fuel cell platforms.

The FlowCath fuel cell

technology has also been

installed at Solvay’s UK

chemical plant in Warrington,.

The fuel cell – a 3 kw power

unit – uses hydrogen that

comes from a nearby

chlorine production plant.

This application is used as a

back-up power unit supplying

energy to the hydraulic water

pump on the plant site. The rig

has been running for hundreds

of hours, and has endured

over 250 stop-starts: so far the

fuel cell has demonstrated

100% durability – an example

of the robustness of the system

that can be expected. The

stop-start testing highlights a

key beneft of the ACAL Energy

system; the fuel cell can be

used sporadically as back-up

power, as well as a continuous

power source.

FlowCath provides a

breakthrough for fuel cell

technology. The enhanced

durability realized by the

liquid catalyst means that

the technology for both

automotive and stationary

applications can be aligned

for the frst time. Initial targeting

of automotive companies will

lower fuel cell costs, because

the supply chain will be

optimised for high volumes. This

method will be advantageous

for stationary applications that

will subsequently beneft from

the low costs associated with

fuel cells produced by a large-

scale supply chain.

Fuel cells represent a way

to supplement power from the

grid, and can provide a reliable

back-up power source if mains

power goes out. They are quiet,

clean, energy-effcient – and

like a giant battery, they can

be plugged into a variety of

situations and used in a variety

of ways. This fexibility makes

fuel cells the ideal power

source of the future.

WADE PARTICIPATES IN MADRI’S INAUGURAL

MEETING

INDUSTRIAL COMPETITIVENESS, ENERGY SECURITY AND RELIABILITY TO BE

THE FOCUS OF CHP & WHP 2013 CONFERENCE

The Mid-Atlantic Distributed Resources

Initiative (MADRI) held the frst of a series of

meetings focused on the question, What

needs to be done to make distributed

generation (DG) more accessible to

end-use customers while balancing the

interests of all stakeholders?”

The meeting, which took place at the

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission’s

headquarters in Washington D.C.,

considered the barriers to deployment

of CHP systems, and potential policy and

rate-making strategies for addressing

them. Bill Pentland, the Director of Markets

and Regulation at WADE, participated

in a panel focused on how utility tariffs

and rate-making issues can affect the

economic viability of CHP systems.

Contact Bill Pentland at wpentland@

localpower.org with any questions.

MADRI seeks to identify and remedy

retail barriers to the deployment of

DG, demand response and energy

effciency in the Mid-Atlantic region. It

was established in 2004 by the public

utility commissions of Delaware, District

of Columbia, Maryland, New Jersey

and Pennsylvania, along with the US

Department of Energy, US EPA, FERC and

PJM Interconnection.

MADRI’s guiding principle is a belief

that distributed resources should

compete with centralized generation

and transmission to ensure grid reliability

and a fully functioning wholesale electric

market.

Industrial competitiveness,

recent federal initiatives

and various state policies in

the US have spurred great

interest in combined heat and

power (CHP) and waste heat

to power (WHP). The Texas

Combined Heat and Power

Initiative (TXCHPI), The Heat is

Power Association (HiP), and

WADE are joining forces to

convene CHP2013 & WHP2013

to address these interests. The

conference and trade show

will be held 7–9 October at

the Crowne Plaza in Houston,

Texas, US.

In its fourth year, this

conference brings business

and energy leaders together

with industry experts, project

developers, policy specialists

and end-users to examine

new technologies, market

opportunities and installation

case studies of CHP and WHP..

The event also includes a

vibrant exhibit hall.

CHP systems, also known

as cogeneration, reduce fuel

costs associated with on-site

generation using natural

gas or biogas by taking full

advantage of waste heat

recovery to signifcantly

increase energy effciency.

CHP provides energy security

during times of grid strain and

extreme weather conditions,

and is gaining favour in

hospitals, universities, data

centres, manufacturers, and

other mission critical facilities.

WHP systems enhance

industrial effciency by

capturing waste heat

from industrial processes,

converting it to power, and

returning the power back into

the process or exporting it for

others to use.

E n e r g y - i n t e n s i v e

industries such as oil & gas

refneries, chemical facilities,

paper plants, steel mills,

cement plants and glass

manufacturers employ WHP

systems to generate power from

baseload waste heat, which is

produced on-site whenever

operations are running. WHP

systems, which require no

combustion and produce

no emissions, improve overall

industrial energy effciency

and competitiveness, and

are considered renewable

energy systems in over 15

states, making WHP a natural

and integral part of all clean

energy discussions.

Paul Cauduro, TXCHPI

Executive Director said: ‘While

often overlooked, combined

heat and power and waste

heat to power technologies

are a signifcant part of the

nation’s clean energy and job

creation story. Implementation

of these technologies is a

logical decision for improving

energy security and reliability,

maintaining compliance with

environmental regulations,

and for increasing the

competiveness of our

nation’s manufacturing and

processing sector.’

CHP

The new European Union Energy

Efficiency Directive 2012/27/EU

(EED) has further reinforced the

urgent need to improve effciency in the

power sector in Europe, with cogeneration

the leading tool included in the legislation

for raising effency in the transformation

sector.

At the same time, the 2020 energy

and climate change goals mean that

technologically Europe’s power grid needs

to be made ‘smart’ to accommodate the

growing contribution of renewable energy

sources, while ensuring security of supply.

Cogeneration or CHP applications in

Europe span a range of capacities and

applications, which together amount to

over 100 GWe of installed capacity. Roughly

50% of this is in space heating (cooling)

applications. The other 50% is in a range

of industrial processes serving industry,

with heat and electricity production tightly

coupled to the process needs. The impacts

of energy and electricity market changes

affect all applications.

In the context of the new call by the

Directorate General Enterprise of the

European Commission to expand the

contribution of industrial production to

the European Union’s (EU) GDP, looking

at the industrial CHP position raises key

questions for all segments of that market.

What are the opportunities for industrial

cogen as the electricity network changes

to a new low-carbon one? What is the

best mode of operation for the grid and

industrial cogenerators in the future?

The EED sends a strong signal to

electricity authorities to facilitate the

development of new markets for balancing

services, demand response and other

services, which are specifically needed

to support the grid operation as the

power mix moves to low carbon. More

intermittent renewables on the network

brings adequacy challenges particularly

from wind and solar PV. The EED contains

the basic principles for the creation of

new markets for both load and supply

management to cope with the increased

mismatch of demand and supply.

Signifcant energy effciency benefts

at the national level come from existing

large industrial cogeneration facilities.

Industrial CHP is first and foremost a

provider of heat to the process it serves

but combining the generation of this heat

with local production of electricity has to

be an attractive business proposition.

With increased levels of intermittent

renewables driving the network to ask

for more flexibility from generators it

is now time to give some thought to

how to manage this needed flexibility,

while continuing to improve the energy-

efficiency records of industries. This

new context further exacerbates the

fuctuating electricity prices in liberalized

power markets and will also call for more

differentiation in grid tariffs according to

the generation and consumption profle of

network users.

Back to the EED, it is clear that

legis lators understood that new

environment by requesting governments

to take action to move the transformation

sector to a higher energy-effciency level.

To that end this legislation reinforces

the priority which should be given to

cogenerated electricity in network access

and dispatch, and also now introduces

the importance of recognizing the ‘need

to ensure continuity of heat supply’ for

the cogen units. Lastly the legislation

encourages electricity regulators to be

more active in energy effciency matters.

In the current European economic

downturn the Directorate General

Enterprise of the European Commission

has called on Member States to collectively

grow the contribution of industrial output

to GDP from 16% to 20% by 2020, as

previously mentioned.

It is therefore worth recalling that

European industry consumed 3668 TWh

of energy in 2010, almost as much as

the commercial and domestic sectors

together. The split of energy use in

industry was roughly twice as much heat

energy as electrical energy. This results

in heat being the critical energy vector

and heat costs driving competitiveness.

Therefore industrial cogeneration plants

contribute significantly to Europe’s

industrial competitiveness today and must

continue to play a key role in its industrial

growth in the future.

Given the EU’s renewed commitment

to cogeneration in the EED and the EU’s

need to defend the competitiveness of

European industry, where cogeneration

plays an important, in the global

marketplace there is a definite need to

ensure the changes that are occurring in

the electricity market do not inadvertently

damage these valuable energy-effciency

savings from the cogeneration sector.

CHP

Cogeneration has prospered in parts of the region, sometimes defying weak economies and unhelpful policies.

Tightening national government

budgets in Europe have forced the

region’s cogeneration industry to

argue persuasively for public subsidies

and tax breaks, and the right to have equal

treatment with renewables.

Helpfully the implementation of the

European Union’s (EU) Energy Effciency

Directive (EED) is nudging Member States

in that direction, while some investment

has flowed into district heating and

micro-CHP projects.

The region’s economic leader Germany

is showing the way as it pushes ahead with

plans to boost its cogeneration sector.

And even though doubts exist that its

government’s pro-CHP policies are ft for

purpose, they will most likely be tweaked.

With Germany the only EU country

that can be hailed as a serious economic

success, will others follow and expand

their cogeneration sectors, recognising an

industry that delivers supply security and

environmental benefts simultaneously?

GERMAN LEADERSHIP

Germany still leads other EU countries in

terms of the size of its cogeneration sector

and CHP’s share of total power production.

Perhaps this country has more compelling

motives to support the sector than others.

Certainly its decision to phase out

nuclear power in the country by 2022 will

have aided in determining the country’s

Energiewende strategy, which favours

energy saving and renewables, and gives

CHP a leading role.

In 2010 cogeneration produced

90 TWh of electricity, or 15.4% of

Germany’s total. With the Energiewende

now the country’s main policy driver in the

energy sector, this share is slated to rise to

25% by 2020.

Germany’s CHP incentives mainly take

the form of guaranteed premiums added

to the market price of electricity. These

have successfully spurred investment in

recent years but the country’s 2012 CHP

law KWK-G proposed an increase in the

premiums, particularly for CHP projects

less than 2 MW.

The move recognized that the

growth of cogen was falling behind the

rate necessary to meet the 2020 target,

at least partly a consequence of the

economic slowdown and energy market

liberalization. But other incentives are

supporting the CHP sector too.

Berlin has pledged it will do even more

to ensure the 2020 target is met. Will it be

enough?

One sceptic is Wulf Binde, managing

director of the German association of CHP

companies, the BKWK, who is not sure that

the country will reach its 2020 goal without

further measures. ‘It may be that in 2015

we will have to have another revision of the

law,’ he says. ‘Actually the government is

preparing a study to assess the situation

and consider what we have to do next year

to give more support to this sector.’

Binde singles out the government’s

fnancial assistance for small CHP units as

an indication of continued growth: ‘You

can get support from the government

for small utilities, and about 28,000

electricity generating units in Germany are

in the range of 1–50 kW,’ he says. Grants

for such units range from €1500–2000

(US$2000–2700) per installation, although

this support only applies to these utilities.

Germany already has more than 80%

of total microgenerator CHP installations

in the EU, with notable success in family-

sized CHP power plants, which sharply

reduce heat and electricity costs, as well as

cutting carbon dioxide emissions. Despite

continued criticism of support for this

sector, largely from conventional power

companies, there seems little prospect of

signifcant reductions in the aid in the near

future. Aid may even be increased if there

is a danger of missing the 2020 target.

BRITISH POLICY

Cogeneration capacity in the UK increased

nearly 3% to 6.1 GW in 2012, according to

the British government. Installed capacity

rose to meet 6.4% of total electricity

needs. Most strikingly, cogeneration from

renewables rose by almost 20% to account

for more than 8% of total fuel used in

cogeneration.

‘The added capacity was mainly in heat,

and almost all of it is small-scale, with an

average capacity of one-point-something

megawatts,’ says Dr. Tim Rotheray, head

of policy at the London-based Combined

Heat and Power Association (CHPA).

Renewables’ share of power generation

rose from 9.4% in 2011 to a record 11.3%

2013EuroCogenCHPBG_5 5 9/6/13 4:14 PM

European Cogen/CHP Buyer’s Guide 20136

CHP

in 2012 through increased capacity, while

heat from renewable sources leapt by 7%.

The government’s Renewables

Obligation policy is partly driving growth

in renewables CHP by acknowledging

that quality-assured green-feedstock

cogeneration can count towards a

requirement placed on power producers to

increase their green energy output, noted

analyst frm Ricardo-AEA of Oxfordshire,

UK, in March 2013. It expects British cogen

capacity to exceed 12 GWe by 2030, 17%

of which will be from renewables. The

following stories illustrate why.

Germany’s MVV Energie AG is building

a €140 million, 23 MW cogeneration plant

near Sittingbourne in Kent that will burn

old and waste timber. Its start-up date is

spring 2015.

Meanwhile, UK-based ENER-G will this

year supply a cogeneration system of up

to 1.4 MW capacity for a new anaerobic

digestion facility in Dunfermline, Scotland.

An engine from Germany-based MTU, with

an industry-high 42% electrical effciency,

will allow the facility to produce power from

methane biogas from food and garden

waste at a local authority landfll site.

But the big news of the past year was

that heat started fowing last October from

the UK’s largest cogeneration project,

the £500 million ($760 million), 1275

MW plant operated by German utility

E.ON on the Isle of Grain in Kent, next to

project collaborator National Grid’s Grain

liquefed natural gas (LNG) terminal.

New community cogenerat ion

schemes include the waste-to-energy

Bunhill Energy Centre that pipes hot

water to more than 700 homes and other

buildings in Islington in London.

As for government policy, the most

recent signifcant moves have been the

March 2013 announcement of the next

steps in the government’s 2012 Heat

Strategy to ensure that affordable, secure,

low carbon heating plays an important role

in the energy mix.

‘The strategy contains quite ambitious

plans for the growth of CHP, including

a commitment to a gas-fired CHP

policy,’ says DR. Rotheray. The latest

commitment includes £9 million to help

local government develop heat network

schemes running in towns and cities.

GERMANY ALREADY

HAS MORE THAN

80% OF TOTAL

MICROGENERATOR CHP

INSTALLATIONS

IN THE EU

Electricity market reform may also

be helping promote small stand-alone

systems, although not intentionally. By

forcing power producers to operate

in a competitive power market, it is

creating administrative and management

diffculties for small energy players:

‘But all this complexity is leading to a

very attractive market for the non-exporting

small-scale CHP market, which is growing

strongly,’ adds Dr. Rotheray.

FINNISH PROTECTION

Although Finland has created new energy

initiatives and regulations to develop

CHP plants, industrial CHP usage has

shrunk because the national economy is

facing depressed demand for the country’s

goods, especially in Europe.

Statistics Finland reports a fall in

industrial energy consumption in 2012

to 380 TWh, 2% lower than in 2011.

This caused a 7% decline in output from

industry-based CHP units.

In district heating, around 80% of

which in Finland employs cogeneration,

output declined by 11%.

Yet the government successfully

passed a national energy and climate

strategy in March 2013, aiming to create a

decentralized and versatile energy system

based on energy plants large and small,

and diverse energy sources supported by

a state-backed energy technology cluster.

The goal is to raise CHP plants’ share in

total national energy consumption from

22% in 2012 to 35% in 2025. Moreover

the strategy sets a target price for biogas

CHP production of €133.5 per MWh.

Finland will also continue supporting

the construction of cogeneration plants,

especially those linked to renewables such

as wood and biogas, says Pentti Puhakka, a

senior clean energy adviser to the Ministry

of Employment and Economy.

‘CHP is the only fuel-based method

for generating electricity that can reach

levels of effciency of up to 90%,’ he says.

‘Cogeneration systems save 30–40% of

fuel consumption compared with separate

condensed electricity generation and heat

production systems. The effciency of CHP

to reduce emissions and fuel consumption

is often underestimated.’

There is a strong case for developing

CHP combined with district heating and

cooling, as part of the sustainable energy

infrastructure of urban environments, he

adds.

Among new CHP plants from Finnish

companies is Fortum Corporation’s

biofuel-fred facility in Jarvenpaa, north

of Helsinki, commissioned in June and

costing €80 million.

It will produce 280 GWh of heat and

around 130 GWh of electricity per year.

Meanwhile, the Metsä Group started

production in January at its latest CHP

plant, next to its Kerto timber mill. The

€17 million, 160,000 MWh unit will deliver

heat, steam and power to the mill and the

district heating network in Lohja.

BALTIC BRIGHT SPOT

Cogeneration production is booming in

Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.

Latvian plants now number 132, up

from 83 in 2011, according to the country’s

Central Statistical Bureau.

Their capacity reached 1021 MW,

producing 2339 GWh of electricity and

4688 GWh of heat in 2012, and now

accounting for about 14.5% of Latvia’s

total electricity consumption, contributing

a 6% increase in production capacity last

year.

Yet despite there being more plants,

they are usually small, with an average

generating capacity of 0.2–5 MW.

In neighbouring Lithuania, CHP power

plants that use natural gas, biogas and

wood chips as fuel dominate.

CHP’s growth in this country has been

slower than in Latvia, although Finnish

2013EuroCogenCHPBG_6 6 9/6/13 4:14 PM

European Cogen/CHP Buyer’s Guide 2013 7

CHP

energy company Fortum has invested

heavily in the region’s cogeneration,

opening a waste-to-energy plant in May

in Klaipeda on the coast that will produce

400 GWh of heat and 140 GWh of

electricity per year from 230,000 tonnes

of local biomass and waste, covering 40%

of the city’s energy needs.

Support for the facility included a

€70 million seven-year loan from the

Finland-based Nordic Investment Bank.

Lithuania is also seeking to increase

its use of biomass in CHP by 2020. The

government wants to ensure 22% of power

in the country is generated by CHP plants

run on biomass in cogeneration mode;

12% by biomass CHP in condensation

mode; and 66% using other non-cogen

generators, including imported power.

Regarding projected funding for Lithuania’s

development of biomass cogeneration,

56% will come from loans, 30% from EU

structural regional development funds and

14% from personal capital investment,

say the Lithuanian Renewable Energy

Confederation.

And in Estonia this May a CHP plant

of electrical and thermal capacities of

2.2 MW and 12 MW, respectively, launched

in Kuressaare, the nation’s westernmost

town.

Local energy company AS Kuressaare

Soojus operates the facility, which uses

a thermal oil boiler and thermal oil

economisers, and will be the largest

medium-capacity plant to be supported

by the Environmental Investment Centre,

a state-owned green technology funding

body that provided the construction

fnance.

Estonia has also announced it will

allocate €200 million from its EU structural

funds budget to support renewables from

2014 to 2020, aiming to supply 20% of

its gross electricity consumption from

cogeneration plants by 2020.

POLISH HITCH

Poland’s market for cogeneration hit a

setback this year when the government

scrapped legislation that would have

replaced an outgoing CHP subsidy scheme

that expired in March.

However, some cogenerat ion

investments are still moving forward,

including the development of plants in

Bialystok, Katowice, Krakow, Lodz and

Poznan, and a 70 MWe plant being built

by Polish oil refning giant PKN Orlen near

its headquarters in Płock, central Poland,

which is due to come on line in 2016.

However, it is unclear when or if

those investments will receive central

government support.

A package of energy laws proposed

earlier this year would have provided

subsidies for CHP investments, but

with Poland’s economy slowing, the

government withdrew it.

Smaller regulations are now being

pushed through piecemeal. An early

measure would provide tax breaks for CHP

and is expected to be passed this autumn.

The law would still need approval from

the European Commission in its capacity

as EU government-subsidy watchdog.

But assuming a public funding framework

is eventually restored, the outlook will

be bright.

EU energy conservation legislation

and its Renewable Energy Directive on

green cogeneration mean that CHP

investment will rise in the country,

according to energy analyst Tomasz Chmal

at Warsaw-based think-tank the Sobieski

Institute.

Poland’s capital is the best example of

the many cities that already use CHP to

provide residents with heat and electricity.

And while the vast majority of

cogeneration facilities in Poland use coal,

according to Chmal, biomass, co-fred and

waste-to-energy systems will surge as the

country looks to meet EU green energy

requirements.

ITALIAN STRIDES

Italy is continuing to promote cogeneration

through a trading scheme for white

certificates. This has proved to be a

particularly suitable support mechanism

for CHP, especially because in September

2011 the country accurately defned who

could access the scheme and how.

Certain high-efficiency producers

can earn the certifcates and then trade

them with power and gas distributors

who may want to fulfll mandatory energy

savings targets that they cannot meet

through their own efforts. Certifcates are

each worth one tonne of oil equivalent

saved.

From last December, changes

to the scheme also allowed energy

services companies that perhaps supply

cogenerated power, and companies

or organizations that have an energy

manager or an ISO 50001-certifed energy

management system in place to trade the

certificates. More than 1.84 million of

which were issued between 3 February and

30 June this year, according to sustainable

energy management authority Gestore

Servizi Energetici. But the scheme’s real

impact on the uptake of cogeneration and

Italy’s efforts to meet EU energy savings

targets is not clear.

The most recent and complete national

fgures came from the Italian Ministry for

Economic Development in 2011. These

showed that Italy’s 53 TWh of cogenerated

power, 18% of the total, is produced

mainly in industrial sectors such as the

petrochemical and refinery industries

with a primary energy mix heavily skewed

towards natural gas.

Meanwhile, an annual report published

in December 2012 on energy effciency

by the Italian National Agency for New

Technologies, Energy and Sustainable

Economic Development said more

significant growth is unlikely without a

CHP

dedicated incentive scheme that allows

faster payback times for entrepreneurs or

extends more reliable credit to enterprises

looking to invest in cogeneration. And

growth in the Italian CHP market remains

slow despite the country’s attractive

regulatory environment.

A national energy efficiency action

plan has particularly highlighted the

untapped potential for residential

micro-cogeneration, but installation

here is hindered by lengthy bureaucratic

procedures. A bill now before parliament

proposes a 65% tax deduction for

the installation of small and micro-

cogeneration systems to improve building

energy efficiency. This could prove an

appealing incentive.

HELLENIC PUSH

Cogeneration in Greece and Cyprus has

had to contend with economic crises and

largely neutral government policies.

But Greece saw a signifcant increase in

CHP capacity with the grid connection last

year of a high-effciency CHP plant at the

Aluminium SA complex of the Mytilineos

Group in the south of the country. It added

110 MW to the combined 89 MW output of

other CHP plants. And regulatory improve-

ments also helped the sector progress. For

example, the government clarifed rules

for administering and authorising small-

scale CHP connections to the grid.

However, the cash-strapped country

has imposed an additional and temporary

tax on cogeneration operators. July 2012

saw the passing of a ‘solidarity’ levy of 10%

on the prices offered to CHP producers

for their power by LAGIE, the electricity

market operator. The producers argue

that this is unfair and that they should be

charged on the net price after fuel costs

have been accounted for. The levy is to

remain until 30 June 2014.

Greece has also yet to implement EU

Energy Efficiency Directive 2012/27/EU

– an issue that the Hellenic Association

for the Cogeneration of Heat and Power

has raised with the government, given it

is likely to spark further incentives for the

sector. Association president Anastasios

Tosios says Greece’s cogeneration industry

has potential but needs government

recognition of CHP’s role as a primarily

energy saving operation.

He believes it also requires a stable

environment that does not produce

surprises, such as a new levy in 2015 or

2016.

Cyprus has been having an even

tougher time of late, but offcials at the

energy service of the island’s Ministry of

Commerce, Industry and Tourism say CHP

production is rising steadily. Looking at the

largely Greek portion of the island that is

controlled by an internationally recognised

government, CHP output reached

12.47 MW in 2011, up from 11.23 MW

the previous year. The country produced

68,592.94 MWh of electricity and

75,347 MWh of heat from CHP in 2011,

according to the latest available fgures.

Much of the feedstock for these plants

comes from farms, mainly those rearing

pigs, which produce biogas.

The government has introduced two

sponsorship plans for CHP development

and has incorporated into law most

of the relevant EU energy directives,

although this is an ongoing process, say

offcials at the ministry. They note how the

financial crisis has dashed expectations

that cogeneration in Cyprus would reach

62 MWe sooner than the 2020 target date

of the nation’s second plan for energy

effciency.

SPAIN DISAPPOINTS

One disappointment in European

cogeneration has been Spain, where the

sector is facing a sea-change in policy

that would favour renewables over CHP.

Cogeneration accounts for 12% of the

country’s electricity generation, 25% of

its natural gas consumption and 40% of

natural gas used by Spanish industry.

B u t m e a s u r e s i n c l u d i n g

e n e r g y r e f o r m s d e c r e e R e a l

Decreto-Ley 9/2013, approved on

13 July, mean cogenerators will pay more

tax on natural gas than a generator using

that fuel or coal to produce electricity

only, and much more than a wind energy

generator, complains the Asociación

Española de Cogeneración (ACOGEN).

‘The effects will be devastating for the

activity of the paper, ceramics, chemicals,

tiles and food industries, introducing

distortions in competition,’ it says.

An t i c ipa ted November 2013

government figures may confirm that

industrial cogeneration had already been

shrinking from 2011 amid uncertainty over

government plans for the sector. The most

recent statistics from Spain’s Institute for

the Diversifcation and Saving of Energy,

published this February, pre-date the

proposal of the contentious reforms. They

show installed cogeneration capacity

rose to 6.41 GW in 2011 from 6.1 GW

in 2010, with the increase entirely from

industrial cogeneration. The service sector

contribution fell by around 400 MW from

2010–11.

Spain’s overall electricity production

from cogeneration in 2011 was 34.6 GWh.

Of the country’s 730 cogeneration plants

in 2011, most were industrial, including

159 in the food, drink and tobacco sector,

146 in manufacturing and non-metallic

minerals, and 126 in services, according

to Spain’s alternative energy institute the

Instituto para la Diversifcación y Ahorro

de la Energía.

Many of these companies are opposing

the government plans. Manufacturers in the

country create 15–20% of industrial GDP.

Among them, carmakers General Motors,

Opel and SEAT, energy and petrochemicals

companies CEPSA and BP, and food maker

Nestlé backed an ACOGEN campaign in

June against government moves to hobble

cogeneration.

ROMANIA’S FIGHT

Romania’s cogeneration sector has

had to fight for government-supported

investment. It has benefitted from an

energy tax on consumers that aids CHP

investments, but this fund may diminish by

the end of the year, the Romanian energy

minister Constantin Nita announced on

25 July. It is not clear yet, however, how

much the current tax of €5.25 per MWh

will be cut. Nita says the aim is to reduce

companies’ electricity bills to help make

Romanian exports more competitive and

to lower bills for consumers.

CHP

This support scheme for high-effciency

CHP, which has been in place since April

2011, offers grants to encourage new

investment in cogeneration technology

and to help renew or even replace the

country’s communist-era district heating

systems, with the money being tapped

from funds gathered from the energy tax.

Prime Minister Victor Ponta even

suggested this April that the tax may

disappear entirely from consumers’ bills.

But a few days later Niculae Havrilet,

president of the Romanian Energy

Regulatory Authority (ANRE), contradicted

him: ‘I don’t think we can speak about

eliminating it, but about re-evaluating it

and diminishing it in some cases,’ he said.

According to data from ANRE, Romania

had in April a total installed electrical

capacity of 3617.93 MW associated with

cogeneration, using mainly natural gas and

coal as feedstocks. An increasing number

of new CHP plants are being inaugurated

and built. The Energy Cogeneration

Group, which is part of the Romanian-

British company InterAgro Group, expects

to build four with a total capacity of

60.75 MW, mainly to support its agriculture,

tobacco, chemical and energy-industry

sites. Meanwhile on 9 July the Romanian-

Swedish consortium Genesis Biopartner

opened the first cogeneration plant

fuelled with biogas. This 1 MW facility will

power manufacturing at the country’s meat

processing company Cris-tim.

FRANCE LASPSES

Government policy in France is threat-

ening its recent advances regarding large

CHP plants, an existing stock of around

800 of which, with a total capacity of

5000 MW, can produce an average of 16

TWh of electricity and 22 TWh of heat

annually, according to green energy

association FEDENE. These cogeneration

facilities were largely installed between

1997 and 2001, backed by public

investment subsidies of about €5 billion

that came with the promise that France’s

utilities would buy the power these plants

produced over 12 years. However, these

contracts are now reaching maturity. When

that period expires, these facilities must

sell their electricity on the open market,

which is small in France, where nuclear

dominates and makes the economic

feasibility of continuing these CHP plants

questionable.

However, some new cogeneration

facilities are being installed. Akuo Energy,

a French producer of electricity from

renewables, is investing €150 million

in two new biomass CHP plants via its

subsidiary NEREA. These are among the

frst biomass projects in the country to use

non-recourse fnancing, where repayments

will come from profits alone. One is a

13 MW biomass cogeneration facility,

expected to be operational by the end of

2014, that should produce 100,000 MWh

of electricity per year and 25 tonnes of

steam per hour for the Bonduelle Europe

Long Life food processing factory in

Estrées-Mons in northern France.

The second project is a 16 MW

facility at Ajinomoto Foods Europe’s

food-processing plant in Nesle in the

same region, which began operating in

April 2013, producing 60 tonnes of steam

per hour.

These two projects will cut carbon

emissions in these factories by around

120,000 tonnes per year and will supply

electricity to more than 55,000 homes.

And last year papermaker Smurfit

Kappa Group’s production facility in

Biganos in southwest France became

the country’s largest biomass-based CHP

facility. Dalkia, a subsidiary of Veolia

Environment, installed the 69 MW plant,

which produces 260 tonnes of steam per

hour.

And there is potential for expansion

in the micro-CHP market too. The

government has passed directive

Réglementat ion Thermique 2012,

which sets a new minimum standard for

thermal insulation in residential and other

buildings. This is likely to increase the use

of micro-CHP.

‘Given their extensive nuclear power,

the usage of cogeneration plants is still

in the emerging phase in France,’ says

Suba Arunkumar, energy and environment

industry manager for market analyst Frost

& Sullivan.

CROATIA

The EU’s newest member state Croatia is

optimistic about CHP. The Croatian Energy

Regulatory Agency (HERA) says plans are

in place to ensure cogeneration here

grows signifcantly over the next few years.

It stresses that EU accession would help

promote CHP because the EU’s energy

efficiency directive now applies, which

‘will provide a stable framework for [CHP]

development’.

In June this year, Croatia published a

new act on the thermal energy market.

This includes a number of the directive’s

provisions. In addition, the Ministry of

Economy, which is responsible for the

energy sector, will draft a new act on energy

effciency that may pass into legislation by

the end of this year. It could include more

measures that will promote cogeneration

but the sector is growing anyway.

In 2012, five biomass or biogas

CHP plants with a total output of

4085 MWe started operations, says

HERA. One reason is that Croatia’s

system of feed-in tariffs, which provides

a higher power price for renewables,

has been encouraging investment in

CHP plants based on biomass or biogas,

‘whereas high-effciency [non-renewables]

is apparently not lucrative’, HERA has

reportedly said.

HERA hopes EU development funds

can boost cogeneration in Croatia. The

nation will have access to €11.7 billion

in EU investment over the next seven

years if it proposes suitable projects and

programmes, according to the European

Commission.

‘There are high expectations regarding

funding via EU funds and programmes

for different projects, both structural and

demonstrational,’ says HERA. But further

is work required to produce eligible

proposals.

‘The cogeneration sector has not

delivered an eminent or established player

or representative that would co-ordinate

or lead projects and proposals,’ adds

HERA. Activities are limited to individual

investors, usually supported by regional

energy agencies, local government or

non-proft organizations, it added.

CHP

The European cogeneration sector

has been looking hard for a

competitive edge, and one area of

innovation that has helped it improve its

energy efficiency is in the convergence

of software, control and instrumentation,

the internet and wireless communication,

and smart grids. These are increasingly

infuencing the operations of cogeneration

plants and what opportunities they have.

Various factors show the importance

of improving control systems and

instrumentation in industrial cogeneration

plants, among them the complexity of

operating conditions, the numbers of

boilers and turbines frequently involved,

potentially competing demands from

end users of the power and heat, and the

increasing likelihood that surplus power

will be fed into local and national grids.

Advanced automation is playing an

increasingly signifcant role here as it can

deliver higher effciency, a reduced load

on the environment and lower use of fuel

stock, according to Jukka Pyykkö, product

manager at Metso Automation, a business

division of Finland’s global engineering and

technology company Metso. Automation,

he says, can measure, calculate, estimate

and monitor production effciency, direct

costs, lifetime costs, emissions and how

these parameters interact.

While this is understood by operators

of modern large CHP plants, there is

less awareness among those employing

smaller units. ‘It is not yet clear to every

user that a modern automation system

gives clear benefits when compared

with a simpler PLC [programmable logic

controller] system,’ says Pyykkö. ‘A good

time to upgrade an automation system

is, for instance, in connection with the

modernization of boiler combustion

technology or the steam turbine controller.’

Getting the best from the most

advanced solutions depends on putting in

place automation and information systems

that are expandable and can be integrated

with processes, he adds. Metso’s solution

is Metso DNA Energy Management,

which has a strong foothold, particularly

for European biomass-fred cogeneration

plants, the company says. Metso DNA is

a modular database software system that

allows load and price forecasting, energy

production optimization and electricity

trading.

In response to industry requirements,

it has separate modules so users can tailor

it to their needs without having to spend

time and capital on customising software.

User friendliness is a key goal of software

developers in this field and the Metso

system is designed to be compatible with

the user interface in Microsoft Offce and

Microsoft Internet Explorer.

Similarly reports can be generated

in Microsoft Excel, while users can edit

information pulled into the system’s

database from the plant or manually

add information. This might happen if

operators wish to plug in external forecasts

for example. A separate, simulation

database in the system allows operators to

ask what-if questions about the potential

impact of, say, weather and load scenarios.

With security of both plants and

power grids moving well up the cyber

security agenda this year, the facility to set

individual user passwords and rights is an

important feature of Metso DNA.

Metso DNA technology will lie at the

heart of the €25 million (US$33 million)

biomass-fred cogeneration power plant

in Sweden that Metso is supplying to

Vimmerby Energi & Miljö AB for scheduled

start-up by the end of 2014.

Designed for unmanned operation,

the plant – capacity of 26 MWth and

7 MWe – with a Metso fue gas condenser

also producing 4.5 MWth of heat, requires

sophisticated automation to deal with the

competing demands made on it. These

include hot water for district heating and

local industries, steam for a local brewery,

reduced CO2 emissions and the export

of surplus electricity to Sweden’s national

grid. All this is fred by local forest residues,

such as bark and wood chips.

Automation systems have proved their

worth around Europe. Emerson Process

Management, a division of US-based

Recent implementations of automation and information systems at cogeneration plants show how these technologies not only improve productivity but enhance reliability and cybersecurity too. They will soon even allow CHP demand-side response management.

2013EuroCogenCHPBG_11 11 9/6/13 4:14 PM

European Cogen/CHP Buyer’s Guide 201312

CHP

global engineering firm Emerson, reported in June that the

reliability and effciency of a mission critical cogeneration plant

in Cartagena, southeast Spain, had increased since the company

installed the latest version of its Ovation expert distributed control

system there in February 2012.

Ovation has evolved over the years in response to industry’s

needs and comprises computerised controllers throughout

the plant, a data input-output unit and embedded software

applications.

The control systems are split into two sections: one covering

the CHP plant and the other covering the separate package

boilers. As with Metso’s DNA system, it is designed to mesh easily

with the latest developments in communications, data processing

and advanced applications.

At Cartagena, Ovation equipped a natural gas-fired,

95 MW combined-cycle cogeneration facility that needs maximum

availability to prevent interruption of the supply of steam and

power to a neighbouring polycarbonate plastics production site.

EnergyWorks, a subsidiary of Spanish energy giant Iberdrola

Group, operates the cogeneration plant, which is now able to

respond more quickly to changes in demand, Emerson says. The

company also stresses that use of Ovation has extended the

working life of the plant.

One important function that effcient controls can help deliver

is the monitoring of the moisture content of feedstock and the

adjustment of the combustion process for better effciency.

Ovation in its latest form allows biomass-fuelled power plants

continually to undertake these observations and calibrations. A

microwave moisture sensor combines with an Ovation control

system to help reduce maintenance costs says Emerson.

The company explains that biomass fuels vary considerably

in energy content. Fuel with a high moisture content generates

less heat and has a signifcant positive effect on energy recovery

in steam generators.

Controlling combustion by monitoring fue gases and adjusting

the combustion air for best effciency is the traditional solution,

but rapidly changing fuel quality and boiler characteristics can

make maintaining optimum conditions diffcult, according to

Emerson. Its solution is to continually monitor the moisture in

fuel that is feeding into the combustion chamber. The system

includes a small skid platform that every two to three minutes

samples biomass fuel moving into the plant, measures moisture,

then returns the fuel to the transport system.

The moisture sensor connects to Ovation via ethernet

systems. Ovation analyses the data feed to provide fast, accurate

information on temperature and moisture. It then adjusts the

combustion air to match the characteristics of the fuel based

on the master set-point output for MWe, steam or pressure,

and based on the boiler response and the thermal cycle

overall.

‘The variable moisture content of biomass fuels presents a

challenge for operators who are under pressure to maximize

performance from their power plants,’ says Bob Yeager, president

of Emerson Process Management’s Power & Water Solutions.

‘With continuous moisture monitoring data incorporated into the

Ovation control system, operators can make rapid adjustments to

the combustion process to help enable an increase in net yearly

MWh production.’

Emerson adds that a leading power generator in Italy has

evaluated the solution on a 15 MWe, 50 MWth wood chip-

burning power plant whose fuel arrives from various suppliers,

each delivering it with varying levels of moisture. The combustion

process here needs to be continually adjusted for different mixes

of fuel. Continuous monitoring of moisture has helped improve

the plant’s effciency and reduce maintenance costs, Emerson

says.

The example is apt as varied biomass fuels will be a signifcant

feature of the increased complexity that Metso’s Pyykkö expects

to see in cogeneration in the future. He foresees different types

of green energy supplies being connected to common district

heating and cooling networks, as well as national grids.

‘They will be controlled optimally and operated remotely with

advanced automation solutions,’ he says, adding that they will run

on biomass, solar energy, process heat, biogas, waste-to-energy,

wind, heat pumps, natural gas, stored energy, gasifcation or coal

with carbon capture. ‘Automation’s role is to take care of the

optimum power and heat production based on capacities and

costs,’ he says.

Meanwhile, rising consciousness about the potential for cyber

attacks against power plants and grids has seen Switzerland-

headquartered global engineering company ABB start to

emphasize security features that have been added progressively

to its control systems for the power and water industries.

In a detailed note on these in late 2012, it acknowledged

that, in general, systems delivering comprehensive real-time

information to allow greater reliability and control have become

increasingly interconnected.

The new generation of automation systems uses open

standards and commercial technologies, with particular reliance

on ethernet and TCP/IP-based communication protocols that are

familiar to many internet users and, sadly, to most hackers. With

connectivity to external networks such as company intranets and

the internet itself, operational benefts now go hand-in-hand with

security risks.

As the power industry in general has become more aware

of the threats, it is demanding secure systems. ABB is among

leading solutions providers who claim that cyber security is

embedded in their products. Among its proactive defences

are a centre to test security patches for its software and an

independent site where state-of-the-art security tools assess

products for robustness.

For example, ABB’s Symphony Plus control systems for power

plants allows external communication to an automation and

control system to be routed through a protective frewall and

communication enabled by a virtual private network.

Symphony Plus supports antivirus software, which can also

have different security zones that require different levels of

clearance to access depending on the operator’s role in the

process. This can limit the use of removable media such a pen

drives and disks.

Other standard features are event logging and audit trails,

backup and restore functions, hardened operating systems on

host servers, host server frewalls and security software patch

validation.

Other providers of relevant solutions include America’s

Honeywell, which in June unveiled Cyber Security Dashboard, an

advanced product it claims will help power plants better manage

control-system cyber security.

‘In many ways the control room of the future won’t be limited

to the control room at all,’ says Jason Urso, chief technology

offcer with Honeywell Process Solutions.

The tool is intended to simplify the process of keeping

automation systems up-to-date with cyber security requirements.

It presents data in a single view and allows users to drill down

and access more-detailed content, such as graphics, trends,

documents and applications.

Advanced analytics can generate customised alerts to advise

staff to update antivirus protection, for example, and manage

software security patches. Honeywell expects to roll out Cyber

Security Dashboard worldwide in early 2014.

Meanwhile, smart wireless instrumentation solutions aimed at

reducing downtime in plants including cogeneration facilities are

becoming more sophisticated. Emerson Process Management’s

Rosemount 3051 pressure transmitter, launched in May, transmits

data on fow and pressure in steam, water and compressed air

systems to benchmark energy usage, identify energy savings and

provide energy management and accurate internal billing.

The company claims it has a 10-year power module life,

will be stable for at least fve years and maintenance free, and

will reduce energy costs and increase process effciency while

providing a safer environment for employees.

Emerson contends that equipment failure causes nearly half of

operational downtime, yet many assets go unmonitored because

of cost constraints.

It says the Rosemount 3051 wireless pressure transmitter can

deliver cost savings of 40–60% compared with wired installations.

Wireless technology also means additional measurement points

can be added quickly and economically.

Validating the smart wireless approach, Emerson released

details in March of how this technology is improving operational

effciency by an estimated 5% at a 13.7 MW biomass cogeneration

plant in Faenza, Ravenna province, Italy.

CHP

The facility uses Emerson wireless

devices to monitor complex fuel

pretreatment, incineration and a new

boiler. This supports preventative

maintenance and provides tank overspill

protection.

Some 29,000 local households draw

power from the plant, whose operator

Enomondo burns waste residues from

wine making, and in the process helps to

reduce Italy’s CO2 emissions from power

generation by 35,500 tonnes annually.

Enomondo is a 50/50 joint venture

between wine and denatured alcohol

maker Caviro Distillerie of Treviso and

Italian construction, recycling and waste

disposal company Herambiente.

With the installation of a new boiler at

the plant to increase effciency and capacity

came the need for new instrumentation to

monitor temperature and pressure.

The fuel pretreatment process, which

ensures NOx emissions are less than

half the limit set by law in Italy, had

numerous variables that were not easily

controlled.

Enomondo addressed this problem by

using smart wireless technology because

it offered simpler installation and lower

overall costs than wired solutions. In March

the plant was using 22 smart wireless

transmitters to send data on temperature

and pressure via a wireless gateway to the

plant’s Emerson Delta V digital automation

system. Cost savings came in various

forms.

Infrastructure costs were some 30%

lower than a wired alternative, layout and

wiring costs were halved, and installation

and instrumentation control costs 40%

less, Emerson says.

‘The modularity of Emerson’s smart

wireless technology, the ease and reduced

cost of implementation compared to wired

devices, and its reliability once installed

have encouraged us to expand its use

into other applications,’ says Alessandro

Catani, plant and energy manager for

Enomondo.

Beyond the plant level, connectivity

is also emerging as a strong technology

theme for power distribution networks.

Ageing networks in Europe need more

flexibil ity and robustness to meet

increasing demand while meeting

European Union targets to reduce carbon

emissions by 20% by 2020 compared with

1990.

Members of a UK business-led

consortium are addressing this agenda by

planning a live pilot to validate the model

they have developed to establish active

virtual power plants with CHP clusters

feeding into a Smart Grid.

The organizations planning to go

live after a feasibility study in UK Power

Networks’ London distribution network

are distribution network operator UK

Power Networks, packaged cogeneration

plant supplier ENER-G, combined power,

innovation consultant the Advanced

Digital Institute, and smart grid companies

Flexitricity and Smarter Grid Solutions. The

study launched in July 2012 and received

£100,000 ($155,000) from the British

government-backed Technology Strategy

Board.

The partners have not disclosed

technical results but are satisfied that

they have developed a workable ‘active

demand-response’ supply control model

at a low level in the network, where

many small-scale CHP plants in the range

10 kWe to 1000 kWe and individual

loads are linked to a distribution network

operator’s (DNO) network management

signals in a system that the consortium

calls ‘active CHP-VPP’ (CHP-virtual power

plants). Such loads include building

heating, ventilation and air conditioning

equipment.

‘The requirements for active CHP-VPP

can be used to shape offerings to the

aggregation and constraint management

and the required communications

infrastructure,’ the organizations conclude.

The consortium anticipates that by

2015 early-adopter DNOs globally will be

commissioning active, distributed demand

notes: ‘The installed base of small CHP

plants is circa 50 MW in London, 4 GW in

the UK, 100 GW in Europe and 320 GW

worldwide.’

Martin Wilcox, head of Future

Networks at UK Power Networks, told

a London conference in July: ‘We now

want to include demand-side response as

part of our normal activity as trials have

given us confdence that it can work as an

alternative to network reinforcement.

‘We are talking to organizations about

the returns they can make by supporting

London’s electricity network at peak times.’

CHP

If CHP in the region is to continue growing, the industry will have to persuade different markets of cogeneration’s advantages. This showcase of projects of different sizes indicates it is on the right track.

It is reassuring that amid Europe’s

current sluggish economy, cogeneration

companies and projects are innovating,

while expanding CHP capacity across the

continent.

Rivalry is apparent within this industry

but competition also comes in the form

of other energy producers, especially

over the matter of securing government

support . Ult imately cogenerat ion

companies will need to demonstrate how

they can deliver energy-effcient solutions

to a wide range of customers. If they

achieve this, then European cogeneration

will have a sustainable future.

HELPING GERMANY DITCH NUCLEAR

The 9.5 MW prime mover formally

installed in May this year by the municipal

utility Stadtwerke Rosenheim in Bavaria,

Germany, ticks off a number of important

innovations. It is the largest gas engine

yet developed by Austrian company GE

Jenbacher, which sees its product as an

illustration of the role distributed energy is

now playing in Germany’s policy to halt all

nuclear power by 2022 and replace it with

natural gas, renewable energy and greater

use of energy-effcient technologies – the

Energiewende.

‘The most striking feature of the new

gas engine is its electricity effciency,’ says

Anja Pegger of GE Jenbacher, who reels off

statistics concerning its performance. The

J920 FleXtra’s electrical effciency of 48.7%

is the highest in the 10 MW class, she says,

adding that it is ‘about 90% effcient in

cogeneration mode, depending on heat

utilization’.

That last figure is more than three

percentage points better than that of a

single-stage turbocharging gas engine.

And, since about 80% of the operating

costs for gas-fired power plants are for

fuel, this effciency advantage represents

‘signifcant savings’.

One of the goals of the Energiewende

is to increase power from CHP from 15% of

Germany’s electricity supply today to 25%

by 2020. The country is already the largest

single market for CHP in the European

Union (EU), accounting for more than 20%

of the electricity from cogeneration in the

28-member bloc.

GE Jenbacher’s new product joins

four of its existing engines at Stadtwerke

Rosenheim – three 3.35 MW J620 units

and one 4.4 MW two-stage turbocharged

J624 – to give the utility an integrated

cogeneration facility with a capacity of

36 MWe and 44 MWth.

The J920 ‘offers both high effciency

and reliability levels, which makes it the

ideal large gas engine distributed power

solution for industrial and grid stabilisation

applications’, says Karl Wetzlmayer,

general manager of gas engines for power

generation at GE Power and Water, to

which he adds that the unit at Stadtwerke

Rosenheim has a lower carbon footprint

than conventional power plants and

boilers.

The complex as a whole will meet

about 40% of the electricity needs of

Rosenheim, a city of some 61,000 in

the upper-Bavarian Alpine foothills,

and 20% of its heating requirements,

and will also provide power and heat to

industry. Jenbacher’s new engine will assist

Germany’s effort to reduce greenhouse

gas emissions by 40% from 1990 levels

by 2020. The engine’s fast start-up will

add to the utility’s operational fexibility

by helping overcome the challenges of

intermittency caused by adding wind and

solar energy supplies to the electricity

grid, the company says.

The two-stage turbocharging design of

the J920 FleXtra will also help Stadtwerke

Rosenheim meet Germany’s goal to

improve its energy productivity – related

to prime energy usage – by 2.1% annually.

A noteworthy factor in the development

of the plant has been the collaboration

between the city’s public utility and GE

Jenbacher. Germany sets great store

by co-operation between industry and

municipal energy providers. In fact the

company and Stadtwerke Rosenheim

had shared almost a decade of gas

engine innovation and co-operation, and

the Bavarian utility was seen as an ideal

means of showcasing the J920 FleXtra, the

company said in a statement at the May

opening.

2013EuroCogenCHPBG_17 17 9/6/13 4:14 PM

European Cogen/CHP Buyer’s Guide 201318

CHP

GE claims that operating the J920

FleXtra at 48.7% electrical efficiency

provides the capacity to produce more

than 76 GWh of electricity per year. Every

year it will also avoid the consumption of

more than 6.4 GWh of natural gas and the

emission of about 1500 tonnes of CO2,

which the company says is equivalent to

the annual emissions of about 800 cars on

European roads. In cogeneration mode,

the J920 FleXtra’s overall effciency of up

to 90% compares very favourably with the

separate production of heat and electricity

by a natural gas-fred boiler and delivery of

electricity on the EU grid.

The unit’s design allows its use in a

variety of multiple-engine power plant

applications, ranging from remote on-site

supply of solely power to CHP. In the latter

case, operators make use of heat from

jacket water, oil and mixture coolers, and

gas engine exhaust. For the best results

in effciency the heating-water circle has

a return water temperature of 70ºC and

a hot water temperature of 90ºC, says GE

in a background note about the project.

LOW-COST HEAT FROM WOOD

The Baltic States have always had

close links, a new one being the Valka

cogeneration plant on the border of

Latvia and Estonia that began operation

in October last year. Both countries could

beneft from the electricity it generates

but, for now, Latvia is buying the power.

There is talk of expanding supplies across

the border to Estonia, whose nationals

already work at the facility. The site is in

a town through which the international

border between the two states passes.

Estonians call the town Valga, Latvians call

it Valka. The plant operator Eneft Power

and Heat Valka was previously Valkas

Bioenergo kompanija before it was taken

over by Estonia’s Eesti Energia in 2011. The

company’s site is a few hundred metres

from the border on the Latvian side.

The town’s residents are the key

benefciaries of the plant, says Kalev Martin,

head of the Eneft Power and Heat Valka

board. ‘Because of this, the main outcome

of the project is that Valka’s inhabitants are

able to have one of the lowest heat tariffs

in Latvia,’ he says. The charge stands at

€48.59 (US$64.19)/MWh plus a tax of

21%. The Valka plant’s electricity capacity

is 2.4 MW and its thermal capacity 8 MW,

according to Martin. It was built by Dutch

company Imtech Industry International,

under an engineering, procurement and

construction contract.

Enefit Power and Heat Valka used

to provide heat to the town from boiler

houses that burned bio-fuel and fuel oil.

These will still be used as reserve stock for

meeting peak loads but fuel for the new

plant is in the form of wood chips.

Eesti Energia is owned by the Estonian

government and operates in its Baltic

State neighbours Latvia and Lithuania, as

well as in the US and Jordan. The company

operates locally under the name Eesti

Energia and as Enefit for international

operations.

The new plant processes local fuel with

greater effciency than the district heating

plant it replaces. It generates electricity

for Latvia’s power network, operated by

energy company Sadales tikls.

Financial support for the plant’s

€10 million cost of construction came in

the form of €3.5 million from renewable

energy budgets within the EU’s structural

funds for regional development. The

remainder came from the operating

company’s own capital, as well as private

loans.

Sandor Liive, chairman of Eesti

Energia, has welcomed the launch as a

strategic move for the company, saying

it is ‘essential that we can also supply

local electricity on the Latvian market.

From now on, Eneft will try to increase its

market share in Latvia, doing so thanks to

electricity produced on the spot.’

Automation is a feature of Valka. A

conveyor transports the wood chip fuel to

the furnace, which creates high-pressure

steam to drive a turbine connected to a

generator. Burning gases from the furnace

fow through a cleaning system, ensuring

few pollutants are emitted. All the systems

are run by computers from the control

room, which can also be accessed using

remote devices.

‘Currently we are learning to operate

the plant but from next year we plan to test

operating the plant with only one operator

in one shift. Additional specialists will be

present in the plant during working hours

of 8 am to 5 pm,’ says Martin.

Enefit supports CHP and renewable

energy plants, regarding them as a

means to guarantee competitive heat

and electricity prices compared with the

use of fossil fuels, which are often costly.

The company also sources the wood chips

locally, with competing suppliers keeping

fuel prices down.

Enefit points to other opportunities

for new power plants in the Baltic area

that use waste as fuel, noting its already

successfully implemented waste-to-

energy project, Iru, near Tallinn. ‘Enefit

is ready to acquire and realise fnancially

reasonable, new production projects in the

home market area. We are targeting the

renewable source side as well, including

biomass and wind,’ says Martin.

SOLAR DESALINATES SEAWATER

Cyprus’s recent bailout by the International

Monetary Fund, the EU and the European

Central Bank is evidence of its dire

economic situation. Yet the south part

of the island – which is not politically

connected to the north, a self-declared

separate state that is under Turkish rule

– is performing cutting-edge research on

cogeneration based on solar energy and

linked to desalination.

The Cypriot government has put

in place strong incentives for the

development of CHP in the last two

years. Meanwhile, researchers and utility

authorities have worked together to

develop innovative solutions to Cyprus’s

resource needs, notably its thirst for

drinking water from a reliable source.

The result is a solar energy and

desalination project by the Energy,

Environment and Water Research

Centre of the Cyprus Institute that has

been developed in collaboration with

the Electricity Authority of Cyprus, the

US-based Massachusetts Institute of

Technology and the US-based University

of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. The

scheme is showing great promise.

Cyprus Institute professors Aristides

Bonanos and John Georgiadis at its

Athalassa campus in Nicosia have

supervised the development of technology

for a solar-powered desalination unit that is

now undergoing trials. It has a continuous

energy production capacity of 10 kW

thermal and will produce about 1.5 m3 of

fresh water daily.

A cogeneration plant of this type

produces two products: electricity and

water. ‘The division of driving heat

between the two can vary depending on

market needs,’ says Bonanos. ‘For instance

during the night there is a minimum in

electricity consumption, so the plant could

reduce its electricity output and increase

its water output.’

The plant is being scaled up to a

larger version that will be operational by

summer 2014. It uses heliostats and a

central receiver to harvest solar radiation

and uses thermal energy storage in molten

salts to ensure continuous operation. Its

thermodynamically-optimised Rankine

cycle system produces power that allows

the distillation of seawater.

Bonanos says: ‘The plant will have

a capacity of 50 kW thermal. The

heliostat feld will have a refective area

of approximately 250 m2, concentrating

solar energy onto an innovative integrated

receiver and storage system, designed

by the Cyprus Institute. The receiver will

transfer energy to molten salt, which is

stored in a tank with capacity 600 kWh.’

CHP

Research driving the construction

of this plant included a technical and

economic feasibility study under the

supervision of the institute’s Professor

Costas Papanicolas into the cogeneration

of electricity and desalinated seawater

using solar energy. The study identifed

technologies suitable for island and

coastal environments, and researched the

economic viability of such a system by

simulating a 4 MWe plant.

The new plant is being built off Cyprus’s

coast to demonstrate the cogeneration

concept in marine conditions, and test

components and subsystems prior to

commercial implementation.

This innovative thermal desalination

system will use a multiple-effect distillation

technique, Bonanos says, that ‘uses heat

to evaporate a quantity of seawater.

The resulting vapours are pure water,

which, when condensed, are the distillate

product of the process. However, during

condensation of the vapour, additional

heat is released, which can be used for

evaporation of a new quantity of seawater,

thus leading to a recycling of energy and

increase in the process efficiency. The

innovation of the system is to use solar

energy to provide the initial heat required

to drive the process.’

One fundamental question the project

aims to address is where the optimal

sources are from which thermal energy

can be drawn to drive this distillation so it

is most effcient.

Research associated with the

demonstration plant will show to what

extent the distillation unit can operate

at variable loads, in contrast with current

industrial practice.

THERE IS A THIRST

FOR SMALL-FOORPRINT,

ACOUSTICALLY

INSULATED SYSTEMS

The work is being organized under the

umbrella of the Cyprus Institute’s ongoing

STEP-EW project, which is co-ordinated by

Papanicolas. It is being funded through the

EU’s INTERREG III Greece–Cyprus 2007–13

Community Initiative, part of an EU

programme that funds joint-development

projects that can assist the economies of

neighbouring countries in the bloc. Money

is also flowing from the EU’s European

Regional Development Fund and the

Greece and Cyprus governments. The

project will also identify alternative suitable

deployment locations for similar projects in

the eastern Mediterranean.

The project addresses a key concern in

the wider Mediterranean region: a severe

water scarcity that results from the arid

climate and the consequences of climate

change.

Precipitation has dropped noticeably

in the past few years and climate models

predict a trend of diminishing rainfall. A

sustainable desalination process may offer

a viable, long-term solution to Cyprus’s

water crisis while avoiding the release of

greenhouse gases that would further spur

climate change, worsening precipitation

and water scarcity.

PACKAGED UNITS DEVELOPMENTS

Technology in the market for packaged

cogeneration continues to be driven by

demand for energy cost reduction, carbon

reduction and resilience of supply, says

Ian Hopkins, sales director for ENER-G

Combined Power.

This UK-based company has installed

natural gas and biogas fuelled units

ranging from 10 kW to 2 MW in the UK,

continental Europe, US, Australia and

Canada, and has been developing and

selling new models. Hopkins says 150 units

passed through its Manchester base in the

12 months to August.

‘We are seeing demand from hospitals,

manufacturing, data centres and other

such mission-critical environments, and

retailers, local and central governments,

agriculture, hotels and the leisure sector,’

he explains. In particular there is a thirst

for small-footprint, acoustically insulated

systems where space is at a premium and

noise control is an issue, he adds.

In response, ENER-G has developed

a Mark II version of its E50 natural gas

fuelled system, redesigned to optimize

space. Electrical output is 50 kWe, total

heat output 79 kWth and fuel input

148 kW/164 kW. It employs a four-stroke

reciprocating MAN E 0834 E 302 engine.

The E50 Mark II is the smallest and

lightest cogeneration package from

ENER-G, says Hopkins.

‘The cost and size reduction has been

implemented without any reduction in

performance or reliability.’ A spokesman

for ENER-G said that the frst order had

been received and the product was ready

for release in the UK, Europe and globally.

ENER-G also launched its Universal

range in summer 2012, claiming it was

one of the smallest, lightest and quietest

outdoor, fully-packaged cogeneration

product ranges available globally.

This range includes electrical outputs

from 90 kW to 125 k W, and was developed

in collaboration with UK supermarket

giant Tesco, which wanted a smaller

footprint system that offers the same

energy cost and carbon savings as large

CHP technologies, but which is faster to

install and commission, and has a reduced

environmental impact in its manufacture.

The Universal system has the power

and same 90% efficiency as the firm’s

traditional large containerised systems

but the products are packed into an

aesthetically appealing weatherproof

enclosure some 40% smaller, 3.5 tonnes

lighter and 5 dBA quieter.

According to ENER-G, it had been

operating in 27 Tesco stores by this July,

when rigorous monitoring demonstrated

‘impressive cost and carbon reduction’.

Hopkins adds that another consumer

trend that his company is seeking to

meet is for improved control technologies

to ensure optimized performance and

improved reporting data. These would

help companies ‘meet compliance

and corporate social responsibility

requirements, while providing data for

claiming financial incentives and tax

exemptions’, he says.

He stresses that ENER-G is planning a

Q4 2013 launch of E-POWER, a new, CHP

control system offering enhanced reporting

functionality and wider compatibility with

existing site energy management systems.

It will interface with E-MAGINE, ENER-G’s

new building energy management system.

In June, German international

engineering group 2G Energy AG

announced production had begun of a

dedicated packaged cogeneration system

that employs an internal combustion

engine that runs on hydrogen, a

combination which the company claims is

a groundbreaking design internationally.

The systems are set up to burn

hydrogen but remain based on the same

modular 6- and 12-cylinder engine series

that powers many 2G cogeneration

products fuelled by natural gas, biogas

or speciality gases. Fluctuating hydrogen

produced by electrolysis is captured by

patented technology for storage as a

solid metal hydride at low pressure. This

greatly improves the security of hydrogen

storage, 2G explained. Storage creates

a permanent supply of hydrogen fuel for

the engines, which can also be run on

natural gas.

Its IL6 and V12 hydrogen-fuelled

engines power 2G’s agenitor 306

(250 kWe) and 312 (450 kWe) natural

gas-fuelled cogeneration systems. The

hydrogen models offer an electrical

efficiency of up to 41%, total efficiency

close to 85% and near zero emissions

of regulated pollutants and CO2. NOx

emissions are also reduced by more than

75%.

The first units have been installed

at Germany’s Berlin Brandenburg Willy

Brandt Airport energy station. More

hydrogen-fuelled cogeneration systems

will reach customers later this year, 2G says.

A company spokesperson adds that 2G is

continuing research into next-generation

hydrogen internal combustion engines

with features to further boost power and

fuel economy.

GROUNDBREAKING TRIAL

Results of a groundbreaking micro-CHP

trial in Malta are expected in late

September following delivery of a high

energy density Stirling engine for an

EU-funded DiGeSPo project.

Distributed CHP GEneration from small

size concentrated Solar Power (DiGeSPo)

is a €4.54 million, three-year project that

has installed a pilot micro-CHP plant at

the pharmaceuticals manufacturing site

of Arrow Pharm, a subsidiary of US drugs

giant Actavis.

It has involved building a modular

1–3 kWe, 3–9 kWth system with a

longer-term goal of providing electrical

power, heating and cooling for single and

multiple domestic dwellings and other

small commercial, industrial and public

buildings.

The technology involves concentrator

optics with moving and tracking

components; evacuated tube collectors

acting as solar absorbers; a heat transfer

fuid and the Stirling engine designed by

project co-ordinators at research institute

Fondazione Bruno Kessler of Trento, Italy;

a generator for the engine; and heating

and cooling systems.

Parabolic dishes of 40 cm diameter

concentrate solar radiat ion onto

evacuated tubes through which thermal

fuid fows and reaches temperatures of

250ºC–350ºC. This allows the engine to

cogenerate heat and power by recovering

its own heat. The project aims to achieve

a global effciency of 60–70% compared

with incident solar radiation. This would

represent a step-change improvement as

similar plants achieve only about 40%, the

project says.

One goal of DiGeSPo is to incorporate

this small hybrid system into residential

buildings. The scope of the project has

gone from initial concept to development.

Its modelling has included the simulation

of sub-modules, followed by production

and testing of prototypes, and production

and feld trials of full system prototypes. If

the results are a success, full dissemination

and exploitation plans will be developed.

Arrow’s involvement is purely as a host.

Its own power needs are far in excess of

what the micro-CHP unit can provide.

‘The project is looking very good,’

says Brian Restall, executive director

of Malta-based Projects in Motion, the

engineering research and consultancy

company handling project management

and information dissemination for

DiGeSPo. He says Arrow Pharm is

proving an ideal test bed: ‘It has hot

water requirements and industrial space

for us to lay out more than we need and

where we can work in a clean and safe

environment without creating any risk for

surrounding properties. Also Actavis is

extremely meticulous, and that has helped

us to refne our protocols.’

Looking to the future, Restal l

suggested a successful concentrated

solar power micro-CHP system could be

useful in reducing Malta’s current almost

complete dependence on fossil fuel.

While a hot climate such as Malta’s

would not fnd the solar thermal component

necessary, the system’s potential to

produce hot water for absorption chillers

to cool homes would be of interest, he

adds. ‘The heating component would

defnitely be of interest further north in

Europe, though.’

Restall says full results will be

presented at a DiGeSPo workshop at

the 2013 International Conference on

Solar Heating and Cooling for Buildings

and Industry, from 23-25 September in

Freiburg, Germany, under the auspices

of the International Energy Agency’s

solar heating and cooling programme

and the European Solar Thermal Industry

Federation.

Other partners in DiGeSPo are

Electronic Machining of Italy; Politecnico di

Milano of Italy; lighting and glass specialist
