We carried out an energy audit of the enterprise, selected the optimal technical solution, and supplied, installed, and commissioned the equipment. Since being commissioned, the combined heat and power plant has been supplying electricity and heat to meet the enterprise’s industrial and domestic needs.

Cogeneration

Inquiry

This woodworking company specialises in chipboard production and is a high-energy consumer of both heat and electricity. Due to the constant rise in energy costs, the client was faced with the challenge of finding a solution that would reduce its reliance on external power grids and improve the energy efficiency of its production without compromising productivity.

Characteristics of the energy sector

Fuel: natural gas.

Electrical power — 1000 kW.

Thermal capacity — 1045 kW.

Overall efficiency — 89.4%.

Decision

The Pro-Energy team carried out an energy consumption audit of the company, identified the most energy-intensive processes, and developed a concept for stand-alone cogeneration. Following an analysis of the client’s requirements, an AVUS 1000 Plus unit with a capacity of 1 MW was selected, which provides simultaneous generation of electricity and heat for production processes.

An energy consumption audit was carried out at the company.

We identified the processes that needed optimising.

We selected the equipment to meet our production requirements.

We organised the delivery of a combined heat and power plant.

We completed the installation of the equipment.

Commissioning work was carried out, and the facility was put into operation.

Conclusion

A key feature of this project was the comprehensive approach to modernising the company’s energy supply. Before work began, the Pro-Energy team carried out a detailed analysis of the production process’s energy consumption patterns and proposed a solution that best met the company’s actual needs. This made it possible not only to ensure the stable operation of the production process, but also to optimise energy costs.

Following the commissioning of the combined heat and power plant, the company gained its own source of electricity and heat, reduced the energy costs for its production, administrative and domestic premises, and became less dependent on disruptions to external power grids.
