POWEREX LIVE MIDLANDS THIS MONTH

PowerEx Live Midlands 2024, will be held on Thursday, 27 June, 2024. Before this important day the UKGSA is backing an associated Golf Tournament which will be held the day before the PowerEx Live (June 26th).

The UK's most modern energy-from-waste centre is based at a 25-acre site at Redcar Bulk Terminal, the former Corus Steel works.

The £300 million Redcar Energy Centre project project will employ 450 full time jobs during construction, 80-100 new full time jobs during operation and will support many other jobs and supply chains in the area.

The project will comprise three direct operational components:

* A 200,000 tonne per annum Materials Recycling Centre incorporating a bulk storage facility

* A 450,000 tonne per annum Energy Recovery Facility (ERF) and;

* A 105,000 tonne per annum incinerator bottom ash (IBA) recycling facility.

The project is being developed by PMAC Energy and Low Carbon under a joint venture company, Redcar Holdings Limited, which has a 35-year lease option for the site.

Low Carbon is a renewable energy developer and investor. The Low Carbon waste portfolio currently consists of six UK assets at varying stages of development.

The team has a multimillion investment fund, mandated to

DATA CENTRE IN

GLASGOW INSTALLS

2 x 2.5MVA GENERATORS

DTGen supplied 2 x 2.5MVA generators to Datavita in Glasgow. DataVita is currently at the forefront of providing highly performance Multi-Cloud solutions, from its Tier III whollyowned Data Centre.

DataVita offers co-location services, allowing businesses to house their critical physical assets in a highly connected data centre. The data centre facility boasts N+N redundancy, 100% green power, and a PUE rating of 1.18, making it one of the best in Scotland.

The second part of DataVita is the services business, which offers a range of IT services, including cloud computing, connectivity, security, back-up and disaster recovery. Every customer has different requirements, particularly in terms of compliance, protection, security and more recently sustainability, and Datavita's role is to help them develop a strategy which meets their needs. The aim is to remove the stress and complexities of IT, enabling companies to focus on core business goals instead of managing IT.

Datavita’s new highly resilient, purpose-built data centre is situated in the basement of 177 Bothwell Street, Glasgow, with Tier III design and 130 racks worth of space. It offers excellent fibre connectivity and highly efficient cooling using green energy; the data centre has an exceptional level of physical security.

DTGen was appointed to deliver the emergency power solution for this new city centre facility, with the standby generators located high in the city’s skyline on the building rooftop and powered by HVO – a renewable fuel, made from 100% sustainable waste plant matter. To support this highly resilient mission-critical site, DTGen designed the solution and then supplied and installed two 2.5MVA generators on the building rooftop in bespoke acoustic enclosures to meet local planning requirements. The generators were craned into position, and the installation was completed while the building was live.

The two 2.5MVA 11kV high voltage, super silent generators are complete with a control system designed to cover switching between both dual mains supplies and the backup synchronising generators. The complex mains/generator power management system incorporates human-machine interface modules, dual redundant controllers, and high voltage neutral earth resistors. Each generator runs off its own day tank with an auto fuel fill system from ground floor bulk storage tanks, and double-skinned fuel lines with leak detection in place.

Having previously worked with DTGen at Scotland’s largest and most advanced data facility, Datavita again chose DTGen for the 177 Bothwell Street site because it felt DTGen had the skills, knowledge and experience in the sector to ensure the successful delivery of this high-specification project.

Danny Quinn, Managing Director at Datavita, said: “This new state-of-the-art data facility is a critical step forward in the future of our business, so working with knowledgeable and reliable delivery partners in our supply chain is business critical."

10MW UK FLEXIBLE POWER PROJECT WITH CARBON CAPTURE

This is a project based around 4 Roll-Royce/mtu engines supplied to an independent power producer in the UK .

A spokesman for mtu commented on the contract: "We are pleased to announce the successful hot commissioning of our 10MW UK flexible power project, RPL, with carbon capture and re-use “CCR”.

"The full testing and commissioning process took two weeks, during which time the units successfully generated power to the grid. In March 2024 the first of the 16V engines was run up to speed and, after off-load testing, was synchronised to the grid and power exported. The gas for the run and the resultant electrical export were provided and received respectively under the commissioning arrangements, which form part of the Axpo PPA.

"Following the successful completion of the hot commissioning tests by Landmark Power Holdings, Yellow Power Ltd , Roll Royce mtu solutions under the supervision of National Grid Energy Distribution (“NGED”), the operations of the power plant, comprising four Rolls Royce 16V engines, have now been transferred to LMPH."

He concludes: "The timeline for the testing and integration of the CCR element is on track to be completed in the second half of the year, with all key equipment, including the Asco CO2 scrubbing units and exhaust piping, now on-site and installed."

ASCO’s innovative ASCOSORB CO2 stack gas recovery technology can turn your vent flue gas into a usable and profitable source of CO2. CO2 gas won by a CO2 Stack Gas Recovery System is a byproduct of flue gas production from boilers as well as from other flue gas sources offering an economic CO2 source to any CO2 consumer or reseller.

The ASCO CO2 Gas Recovery System achieves liquid CO2 purity of 99.998 % from an inlet CO2 gas source purity as low as 98.5%. For CO2 sources with a purity of 95 % or higher, recovery systems are available.

Rolls-Royce pioneers the power that matters to connect, power and protect society. A spokesman commentsd: "We have pledged to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions in our operations by 2030 [excluding product testing] and joined the UN Race to Zero campaign in 2020, affirming our ambition to play a fundamental role in enabling the sectors in which we operate achieve net zero carbon by 2050."

Rolls-Royce Power Systems is headquartered in Friedrichshafen in southern Germany and employs around 9,000 people. The product portfolio includes mtu-brand high-speed engines and propulsion systems for ships, power generation, heavy land, rail and defence vehicles and for the oil and gas industry as well as diesel and gas systems and battery containers for mission critical, standby and continuous power, combined generation of heat and power, and microgrids.

Rolls-Royce has customers in more than 150 countries, comprising more than 400 airlines and leasing customers, 160 armed forces and navies, and more than 5,000 power and nuclear customers. Annual underlying revenue was £11.76 billion in 2020 and the company has invested £1.25 billion on research and development. It supports a global network of 28 University Technology Centres, which position Rolls-Royce engineers at the forefront of scientific research.

BACKUP GENSETS

SUPPLIED FOR KEY ROLES OPERATING IN IPSWICH & REIGATE

The Shenton Group was involved in a project to install a new generator system at two specific sites, one in Ipswich and the other in Reigate.

The new tenant populating the buildings needed to upgrade and upsize the backup generators already on site to support their new infrastructure and data centre.

This project came through a data centre specialist organisation that ensures business continuity for their clients across the globe.

A spokesman comments: "Having built up a great relationship on previous projects, we were entrusted once again to provide this power solution.

" At Ipswich, the key concern was how the existing generators were to be removed from the roof and the new units installed with a very tight weight restriction. The acoustics also needed to be accurate to achieve a definite level to the nearest building.

Reigate

"The Reigate Project had a space restriction which meant the two generators needed to be housed within the same enclosure with the fuel system incorporated within the same footprint".

The two sites required two 1385kVA generators synchronised together to provide an N+1 redundancy to the client’s data centre. They were also synchronised to the mains to provide a no-break transfer back to mains. For the Ipswich site, a temporary platform was built outside the room on which to land the new generators. This would then enable them to be skated into the building. Before landing the generator onto the temporary platform, the roof structure needed to be temporarily propped and supported. The project was a success and the client was very happy with the end result, reports the company.

20MW GAS PEAKING PROJECT IN WREXHAM HAS BEEN COMPLETED

Earlier this year Finning Energy & Transportation completed the installation of the exhausts to the gensets being used in a 20MW gas peaking project at Miners Road, Wrexham, a site being developed by Terra Firma Energy Limited.

Assisted by Steve Foster Cranes, the final six exhaust stacks were successfully installed, concluding the assembly work on the gensets. The gas project went live in early February, this followed by the cold commissioning phase for the generators. Additionally, a 10 MW co-located solar facility will be added to the site.

The Miners Road site, along with Terra Firma Energy’s portfolio of peaking assets, plays a vital role in the National Grid Electricity System Operator’s strategy for scalable power generation. Recent threats of rolling blackouts and planned

power cuts highlight the importance of secure electricity supplies in the coming years.

Partnering with Finning CAT for the supply of generating sets ensures that Terra Firma Energy complies with the local planning authority and environmental permits’ noise and emission limits while maximizing profit margins. With the operating permit secured, the 23MW power plant can now operate for 8760 hours annually, significantly increasing profitability.

TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR: A UK-BASED SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT AWARD WINNER

Schneider Electric, the leader in the digital transformation of energy management and automation, has announced that Tottenham Hotspur Football Club has been recognised as a European winner in its annual Sustainability Impact Awards.

Port of Dover and Platinum Electrical Engineering for its work with Brilliant Planet have also been announced as UK winners.

The awards are designed to recognise organisations that are making a positive impact on sustainability, showing leadership and innovation as the world looks to reduce its carbon emissions.

Tottenham Hotspur Football Club – transforming to become the most technologically advanced stadium in the world

Tottenham Hotspur Football Club is on a journey to operate and maintain the most technologically advanced stadium in the world whilst supporting its journey to net-zero.

The club is driving innovation and technology initiatives to ensure the stadium operations are as energy efficient as possible, using only

100% renewable energy to power all electrical equipment on site. Its award-winning stadium is regarded as a global benchmark for design and innovation.

The club has been named as the Premier League’s greenest club for four successive years.

In September 2021, the stadium was home to the world’s first netzero football match, #GameZero, raising awareness of the impact of major sporting events on climate.

Port of Dover plans to decarbonise its remaining ecosystem emissions through electrification and is embarking on an ambitious project to become one of the first high volume Green Corridors in the UK.

It is exploring the possibility of shore power as ships transition to become fully electric, transforming from a transport hub to an energy provider through onsite energy generation and microgrids.

Port of Dover handles the supply of essential goods to the UK with 33% of all UK trade with the EU passing through the port. Its ecosystem accounts for 8% of all UK maritime emissions.

GENERATOR CONNECTION UNIT UP TO 800AMPS RATING

The Blakley Projects Team was recently involved in developing a Generator Connection Unit (GCU) for a major infrastructure project.

The requirement was for the GCU to be located on the outside of a building with the load side permanently wired to one side of a changeover switch located within the building (the other side of the switch was connected to the mains supply).

The supply to the GCU had to be plug-in with the connectors compatible with those fitted to the stand-by generator. There was also a requirement for access to the incoming plug-in connections to be controlled, in order to prevent unauthorised disconnection or other interference.

The resulting GCU had an overall current rating of 800 amps and was housed within a robust, purpose built, IP55 rated, sheet steel enclosure with a high quality,

outdoor duty paint finish.

The lower section of the enclosure had a side hinged, padlockable door, behind which were located a set of 5 no. single-pole, panel mounted, IP67, powerlock drain connectors rated at 800 amps.

The powerlock connectors were colour coded Brown, Black, Grey, Blue and Green and individually keyed, so that they only accept a matching source connector from the generator.

TT RACING ON THE ISLE OF MAN IS BACKED BY UK'S LEADING SPECIAL TECHNICAL DISTRIBUTOR

Greg Lambert Racing compete at the Isle of Man TT and other road and racetracks across the UK. They have considerable pedigree with multiple top 10 TT finishes, podium finishes at the Southern 100 road races, and multiple British and Scottish Championship successes.

The team of driver Greg Lambert and passenger Andy Haynes secured 11th place in the first sidecar race at this year’s 2024 TT with all the teams who finished in front of them, bar one, being multiple TT, British, World championship winners and seeded riders. Therefore, the team’s performance is a considerable achievement given the quality of the field.

TVR Instruments' support has been essential in enabling the team to start each race on brand new tyres, maximizing the opportunity for the team to post their fastest possible time. The race regulations restrict tyre choices to a single make, Hoosier, and TVR Instruments backing meant the team could choose from different compounds and tyre sizes to maximise the handling characteristics of their LCR Honda 600 sidecar.

Qualifying/practice week went well, with the team securing 17th place on the start line. Race 1 saw the team progress well, rising to 9th position at one point, however a slight technical issue unsettled the sidecar slightly, but the team pushed on and secured 11th place, only missing out on another top ten finish by a matter of seconds. With all issues now sorted the team are looking to push on harder as they can ride with more confidence and are focused upon improving their finishing time, lap speed and overall finishing position.

The team also invest in the future of the sport with driver Greg running a sidecar school, offering people the opportunity to try out passengering or driving a sidecar either just for the unique experience or with a view to entering the sport. In recognition of the support from TVR Instruments Greg Lambert Racing are offering a sidecar passenger experience at the school for Tony, Owner/MD at TVR, to auction/raffle off as part of his wider charity work.

In previous years TVR Instruments have supported Andy with the purchase of his crash helmets, and both Greg and Andy are very thankful for the expanded support Tony and his team have offered in 2024. The team are looking forward to welcoming the TVR prize winning sidecar passenger experience day participant to the school for a once in a lifetime experience!

takes pride in its ability to deliver diesel-powered generators to an exact customer specification.

Founded in 2013, the company exports to over 50 countries and has quickly established itself alongside more established brands, something CPS attributes firmly to its staunch ‘Made in the UK’ philosophy.

Founded just seven years ago, the company exports to over 50 countries and has quickly established itself alongside more established brands—something CPS director and co-owner Daniel Arnett attributes firmly to its staunch ‘Made in the UK’ philosophy.

Based in Selby, North Yorkshire, CPS is known for offering high quality products, all of which are backed by its service team.

decisions are made on quality. It’s the reassurance of UK build and quality, and our flexible attitude towards design and development, constantly guided by customer need and requirements,” explains Daniel Arnett of CPS.

“All our sets are assembled in the UK,” he says, “designed and built by UK engineers. We continue to be successful with orders where price is not always the key factor and where decisions are made on quality.

“It’s the reassurance of UK build and quality, and our flexible attitude towards design and development, constantly guided by customer need and requirements,” explains Daniel.

Offering flexible production lines, CPS can quickly design and customise products to meet its customers' varied power needs from 5-2250 kVA.

Of course, at the heart of every generator is an engine. For CPS, there was never any doubt that Perkins—through distributor DiPerk—would always be the ‘go-to’ choice for power; both founders previously worked for another generator company where Perkins was the preferred supplier.

Perkins supplied three engines: 1103A-33TG2, 1206A-E70TTAG2 and the 4000 Series to Constant Power Solutions (CPS). With clients as diverse as Amazon, the United Nations and a British local authority, it’s no surprise that Constant Power Solutions (CPS) takes pride in its ability to deliver diesel-powered generators to an exact customer specification.

“Familiarity with the brand certainly helped,” admits Daniel, “and of course the Perkins brand name is a big factor in customers’ decision-making. But it’s everything that comes with it, like the fact that DiPerk holds a range of engines in stock. That allows us to win orders through favourable lead times.

“Our authorised OEM status is a huge encouragement for new dealers to join the CPS family, and a massive reassurance for customers that they’ll benefit from the renowned Perkins global warranty.”

One of the earliest CPS ordersfor Flintshire County Council, who purchased six Perkins® 1103A-33TG2 60 kVA AP60S powersets - was instrumental in securing the company’s first dealership. According to the company, this is a relationship which endures to this day.

BESPOKE GAS-FIRED CHP: A VITAL HYDROGEN-READY SYSTEM

AT STERLING PHARMA IN

NORTHUMBERLAND

Sterling Pharma Solutions is a global pharmaceutical contract development and manufacturing organisation (CDMO). As part of its sustainability strategy, Sterling partnered with Clarke Energy to act as principal contractors, to design, construct and maintain a bespoke hydrogen-ready, gas fired combined heat and power (CHP) plant. With on-site energy generation estimated to be 40% more efficient than off-site generation, the new facility will provide a more sustainable solution to buying electricity, as well as providing steam and hot water to the site.

Sterling’s manufacturing process is heat and power intensive. Their refrigeration needs require temperatures ranging from -20c to -90c, along with heavy machinery running 24/7. Clarke Energy worked in partnership with Sterling to not only provide the most efficient energy solution, but managed the design and construction of the CHP plant. Clarke Energy assessed the site’s half hourly data and installed a 3.4MW Jenbacher 620 gas engine, two gas fired and one composite boiler, to replace two existing boilers. The boilers are synchronised to respond to site steam load and prioritise waste heat contribution (lead source) from the engine to combination boiler.

A new building was constructed on site, with Clarke Energy managing the scheme from assisted planning, groundworks, steel fabrication to completion. Now commissioned, the CHP plant provides 98% of the site’s electricity and heat and will reduce emissions by 400 tonnes (compared to the 2019 baseline year).

There was an option to oversize the CHP, but careful consideration was given to creating available space for future engine upgrades and potential future hydrogen equipment.

Sterling’s ultimate goal is to become entirely carbon neutral, the first step is to reduce its carbon footprint by 50% by 2025. By installing a CHP plant they will drastically decarbonise their heat supply and plan to upgrade to a blend of hydrogen, once available. CHP forms part of its net-zero plans with future renewable hybrids in planning stages.

Looking at the Jenbacher 620 gas engine

The J620 is Type 6 family’s “workhorse”, a V20-cylinder efficient power generation solution, with power output of up to 3,360 kW and electrical efficiency up to 45.9%. This features:

*Electrical Output - 3,041 - 3,360 kW

*Thermal Output - 2,769 - 3,560 kW

*Voltage - 6.3kV, 10.5kV

*Electrical Efficiency - up to 45.9

%*Thermal Efficiency - up to 47.5 %

Type 6 engines have been designed with features which enhance heat recovery, assure stable combustion, reduce emissions, and increase efficiency - taking the Jenbacher line to new levels of performance, says the manufacturer.

A centrally-located purged precombustion chamber in the 620 helps provide optimal ignition conditions.

The spark plug ignition energy is amplified in the pre-combustion chamber, facilitating stable and reliable combustion.

Miller valve timing creates reduced compression temperature and an increased safety margin to knocking limits, providing improved ignition timing and high efficiency.

Combined Heat and Power Module (CHP Module) solutions allow customers to generate power and heat simultaneously at a very high total efficiencies, reaching 90% and even more.

CHP: HEAT AND STEAM PROVIDES POWER TO RUN SCOTLAND'S MACALLAN DISTILLERY

A Combined Heat and Power (CHP) plant near Craigellachie, Moray currently provides heat in the form of steam for the nearby Macallan whisky distillery and electricity to the national grid.

Generating up to 15MWe of electricity the plant produces enough renewable energy to power 20,000 homes and when the 10MWth of heat supplied to the distillery, and the natural gas this displaces is taken into account, it represents a carbon saving equivalent to 42,000 tonnes of CO2 per annum equivalent to taking 18,000 cars off the road.

The plant is fuelled with sustainable low-grade wood harvested from regional forestry operations.

This has a number of local benefits including providing an additional market for low-grade wood, helping local forestry growers by supporting the production of higher-grade wood which in turn makes local forestry and woodland management more economic as well as supporting jobs in the supply chain.

The life of the plant is 25–40 years.

Construction was managed by StandardKessel Gmbh on contract to Speyside Renewable Energy Partnership Ltd. and the plant is operated and maintained by BWSC.

Funding was provided by Speyside Renewable Energy Partnership’s shareholders as well £48m in bonds guaranteed by the Infrastructure and Projects Authority, part of HM Treasury.

Local scale biomass plants like this one are good sources of low carbon energy with benefits extending well beyond the local sphere. They can help tackle climate change by reducing CO2 emissions. By using locally sourced and sustainable wood fuel they reduce our reliance on imported fossil fuels and create a more secure energy supply.

Macallan is one of the oldest licenced distilleries in Scotland.

Known as the “Rolls Royce among Malts”, it is one of the best-known Single Malt Whisky brands worldwide.

Macallan has a production capacity of 16 million litres of alcohol per year

The MWM product portfolio comprises gas engines and gensets in the output range from 400 kWel to 4,500 kWel . Power plants with an output of 100,000 kWel and more are technically feasible. The units are designed for maximum electrical and thermal efficiency, low operating and service costs, and high reliability and availability. Thus, they reach efficiency levels of more than 90 percent.

MOROCCO POWER PROJECT’ GETS

US$14.1 MILLION INVESTMENT -

PROJECT COMPLETION BY 2034

Xlinks First Ltd. has announced a $14.1 million investment from Africa Finance Corporation (AFC), the continent’s leading infrastructure solutions provider, to further the development of Xlinks’ Morocco – UK Power Project, which will provide affordable, reliable, clean energy from Morocco to Britain within a decade.

AFC’s support marks a significant milestone for the project, affirming Morocco’s role as a continental renewable energy leader, and demonstrating how Africa’s enormous renewable energy potential can provide solutions to benefit the global energy transition.

Once complete, the project’s wind and solar generation, combined with flexible battery storage, will supply 3.6GW of affordable, reliable, clean power to deliver 8% of the Britain’s current electricity needs – or the equivalent of 7 million homes.

The new electricity generation and battery storage facilities, located in south Morocco, will be connected exclusively to Britain via 4,000km HVDC sub-sea cables.

The project will drive the creation of thousands of employment opportunities including a significant proportion of qualified jobs, supported by training and certification programs, which will help to consolidate the pioneering role of Morocco’s renewables expertise as a regional

and continental energy hub. The project will also foster the establishment of an integrated renewable energy industrial ecosystem, including industrial production of renewable energy equipment, transformation, transport, storage, and reconversion, which combined will serve as a locomotive for growth and economic development.

Samaila Zubairu, AFC President & Chief Executive Officer, said: “Africa, with its immense renewable energy potential and vast natural resources, stands at the forefront of global net zero aspirations.

“Xlinks’ Morocco-UK Power Project exemplifies this pivotal role, showcasing Africa’s capability to fuel Europe’s shift to sustainable energy while simultaneously addressing urgent climate challenges. By harnessing the abundant wind and solar power of the Sahara and channeling it directly to one of Europe’s largest energy markets, this project not only boosts the growth of Morocco’s economy through a significant

“The Morocco –UK Power Project will generate 11.5GW of zerocarbon electricity from the sun and wind with energy storage to deliver the equivalent of 3.6GW of firm, flexible and reliable energy for over 19 hours a day on average. The new electricity generation and battery storage facilities will be located in renewable energy-rich Morocco.”

step forward in the development of the project.

“We are excited to be partnering with AFC, a leading financial institution created by African sovereign states, including the Kingdom of Morocco. They bring an unparalleled understanding of, and experience in, African infrastructure. Their mission - to foster economic growth and industrial development on the continent - aligns closely with the planned outcomes of the Morocco-UK Power Project.”

€9.9M FOR WASTETO-ENERGY PLAN TECHNOLOGY

WASE, a UK-based startup which is unlocking the power of waste to make it the fuel for the future, has announced that it raised over €9.9 million, including €2.8 million in non-dilutive funding. The financing round was led by Extantia Capital, with participation from Hitachi Ventures, WEPA Ventures, the family venture capital firm of the European multigenerational family business WEPA, and Engie New Ventures, reports UKPN.

The round earmarks funds for WASE to scale operations, execute multi-million pounds of signed contracts and projects in their qualified pipeline, and build out their product offering.

Founded in 2017, WASE’s proprietary Electro-Methanogenic Reactor (EMR) technology is versatile and maximises the amount of biogas produced from biomass in anaerobic digestion (AD) plants, as well as from organic matter in wastewater.

Its units increase methane concentration in biogas by 30%, up to ten times faster. The tech also increases the methane content of biogas to more than 80% compared to conventional AD where methane contents of 50-60% are more typical. WASE’s plug-and-play system – which fits into existing infrastructure and is also 5070% smaller than what is currently available.

The modular solution allows customisation, making it much easier for companies to deploy at their site, resulting in more energy production and lower costs in the long run.

Tighter regulations and higher costs are driving food and beverage companies to seek more affordable, on-site treatment options for their wastewater.

WASE already works with a number of food and beverage manufacturers such as Hepworth and St Peter’s Brewery, to convert their wastewater into renewable energy.

“We want our technology to set a new standard in the waste treatment and energy sectors, by not only optimising waste breakdown but by boosting methane production across the board,” said Thomas Fudge, Founder and CEO of WASE.

“We’re seeing a future of Waste-to-Energy that maximises economic and environmental benefits for all players involved, and we aim to play a major part in this transition by becoming leaders in the biogas market. Extantia and ENGIE, who deeply understand this sector, and all the investors supporting us in this round, will be invaluable resources to help us achieve this.”

“We want our technology to set a new standard in the waste treatment and energy sectors, by not only optimising waste breakdown but by boosting methane production across the board. We’re seeing a future of Waste-to-Energy that maximises economic and environmental benefits for all players involved."

commented: “We strongly believe that biogas and biomethane will soon be a key source of renewables and will make up a growing percentage of the energy mix.

"WASE’s approach doesn’t just increase biogas and biomethane yields from the AD process, making it more profitable and productive, it is reshaping the way industrial businesses are thinking about their resources. We think their cutting-edge technology, the know-how they have built-in commercialising their wastewater solutions, their existing supplier relationships, and their capitalefficient approach positions them well ahead of competitors in this space – and we’re delighted to support them.”

"ENGIE has the ambition to develop 10 TWh per year of biomethane production capacity in Europe by 2030. We want to accelerate the energy transition and strengthen Europe’s sovereignty. This participation into WASE is a concrete step to deploy innovative technology onto the market and to allow greater efficiency and competitiveness,” concludes Camille Bonenfant-Jeanneney, Managing Director of ENGIE Renewable Gases Europe. wase.co.uk

2MW BIOGAS PLANT SUPPLIES

4,000 HOUSEHOLDS WITH ENERGY

MWM supplied a biogas plant to provide electrical energy to around 4,000 households with its two TCG 2020 V12 gas gensets. Construction of the plant began in December 2020, and

The MWM gensets supplied for this key project in Lozovo, North Macedonia, were of the high-efficiency 1MW design.

The engines, powered exclusively by renewable energy and organic waste, provide 2.1 MW of thermal energy. But that’s not all: approximately 30,000 tons of natural fertilizer are produced annually as a byproduct of biological processes and used in local agriculture.

The power plant, an investment of Bio Enterprise, was planned and realized by the engineers and technicians of Feroinvest and EMS (Energy Maintenance Solutions). Feroinvest is known in North Macedonia and beyond for its expertise in renewable energy.

Biogas is usually produced by the anaerobic digestion of organic waste in a so-called digester. Instead of allowing the waste to decompose uncontrollably and release gases into the atmosphere, it is stored in an oxygen-deficient environment, such as a covered lagoon or stainless steel tank. From there, methane is extracted and used as fuel

generation began 5 months ago.

to generate heat and electricity. This way, biogas plants can convert organic waste into energy and valuable byproducts such as fertilizer. In addition, biogas plants can continuously generate electricity, which is particularly valuable given the current shift to renewable energy.

Large tomato producer relies on MWM gensets

Wonderplant S.A, one of Greece’s largest tomato producers, also relies on cogeneration with MWM gas gensets

Made in Germany.

The Greek vegetable grower produces up to 15,000 tons of tomatoes annually.

For the “Wonderplant 2” project and the associated expansion of the greenhouse area, MWM Benelux B.V. installed another cogeneration unit in 2021, powered by eight MWM TCG 2020 V12 gas generator sets.

In 2011, the first greenhouse of the vegetable grower Wonderplant S.A, with an area of 105,000 square meters, was built. In 2013, the first cogeneration

“Gensets of the medium MWM series, TCG 2020 and TCG 3020, are very popular, for example, in hospitals, data centers, shopping centres, biogas plants, or the food industry. With a power range between 1 and 2.3 MW, the gas gensets of this series are said to be ideally suited for decentralized energy projects. The MWM gensets supplied for this project were of the highefficiency 1 MW design."

plant with four MWM TCG 2020 V20 gas gensets with a total capacity of eight MWel was installed by MWM Benelux B.V. to manage the greenhouse. Since then, the MWM gensets have been in continuous operation and have completed over 70,000 operating hours. In 2018, the greenhouse area was expanded by another 55,000 square meters.

To handle the increased demand for heat and electricity following the expansion of the greenhouse area, MWM Benelux B.V. 2021 installed a new cogeneration plant, including flue gas cleaning for Wonderplant. The CHP plant is powered by eight MWM TCG 2020 V12 gas gensets with a total output of 9.6 MWel and 10.4 MWth. Both CHP plants have a total capacity of up to 17.9 MWel. The greenhouses can be optimally heated thanks to the new CHP plant with the MWM gas gensets.

The cogeneration plant of “Wonderplant 2” has an annual electrical capacity of 76,800 MW and an annual heat generation of 83,200 MW. After the commissioning of the plant in 2021, the Greek MWM distributor A.EI.M.A S.A. has taken over the maintenance and service work for Wonderplant.

The CHP plant ensures that around 15,000 tons of tomatoes can be harvested annually under optimal growing conditions.

With an average per capita consumption in the European Union of 31 kilograms per year, the company produces enough tomatoes to supply a major city with around half a million inhabitants. This also includes the demand for tomatoes for ketchup or sauces. For more information please visit: mwm.net and caterpillar.com

HYDROGEN

20MW HYDROGEN-READY GAS GENERATORS AT PEAK POWER STATION

Thanks to Clarke Energy, Drumcross will soon become the 12th operational site in the Forsa fleet, utilising fast start, high-efficiency, H2-ready generators. Once up and running, the site will be capable of exporting 20MW of electricity in the UK at short notice to the local distribution network during times of high demand and low renewable output, efficiently supporting security of supply during the energy transition.

Peaking power plants, also known as peaker plants, and occasionally just “peakers”, are power plants which generally run only when there is a high demand, known as peak demand, for electricity.

Because they supply power only occasionally, the power supplied commands a much higher price per kilowatt hour than base load power.

Peak load power plants are dispatched in combination with base load power plants, which supply a dependable and consistent amount of electricity, to meet the minimum demand.

Although historically peaking power plants were frequently used in conjunction with coal baseload plants, peaking plants are now used less commonly.

Combined cycle gas turbine plants have two or more cycles, the first of which is very similar to a peaking plant, with the second running on the waste heat of the first.

This type of plant is often capable of rapidly starting up, albeit at reduced efficiency, and then over some hours transitioning to a more efficient baseload generation mode.

A spokesman commented: “Drumcross will soon become the 12th operational site in the Forsa fleet, utilising fast start,

high efficiency, H2 ready generators thanks to work by Clarke Energy and INNIO.

“The site will be capable of exporting 20MW of electricity at short notice to the local distribution network during times of high demand and low renewable output, efficiently supporting security of supply during the energy transition.”

As a key enabler and an integral part of the net-zero energy transition, INNIO Jenbacher launched their “Ready for H2” engine portfolio. Jenbacher Type-4 gas engines are now available as “Ready for H2” engines, able to operate on up to 100% hydrogen

As of 2022, all other INNIO Jenbacher gas engines are offered with a “Ready for H2” option, capable of running with up to 25% volume of hydrogen in pipeline gas and being able to be readily converted from natural gas to 100% hydrogen operation.

Jenbacher gas engines can be configured to produce:

- Electricity only (base-load generation)

-Electricity and heat (cogeneration / combined heat and power – CHP)

-Electricity, heat and cooling water (trigeneration / combined heat, power and cooling – CCHP)

-Electricity, heat, cooling and high-grade carbon dioxide (quadgeneration)

- Electricity, heat and high-grade carbon dioxide (greenhouse cogeneration)

Gas engines are typically applied as stationary continuous generation units but can also operate as peaking plants and in greenhouses to meet fluctuations in local electricity demand or supply.

They can produce electricity in parallel with the local electricity grid, in island mode operation, or for power generation in remote areas.

The efficiency of up to 49.9% of Jenbacher engines results in outstanding fuel economy and in parallel the highest levels of environmental performance.

“Drumcross will soon become the 12th operational site in the Forsa fleet, utilising fast start, high efficiency, H2 ready generators thanks to work by Clarke Energy and INNIO. The site will be capable of exporting 20MW of electricity at short notice to the local distribution network during times of high demand and low renewable output, efficiently supporting security of supply.

The engines have also proved to be highly reliable and durable in all types of applications, particularly when used for natural gas and biological gas applications.

Jenbacher generators are renowned for being able to constantly generate the rated output even with variable gas conditions.

The patented LEANOX® lean burn combustion control system fitted on all Jenbacher engines guarantees the correct air/fuel ratio under all operating conditions in order to minimise exhaust gas emissions whilst maintaining stable operation.

In combination with the LEANOX® system the Jenbacher gas mixer balances out fluctuations in calorific value, which occurs mainly in biological gas applications.

Jenbacher engines are not only renowned for being able to operate on gases with extremely low calorific value, low methane number and hence degree of knock, but also gases with a very high calorific value.

Possible gas sources vary from low calorific gas produced in steel manufacture, chemical industries, wood gas, and pyrolysis gas produced from decomposition of substances by heat (gasification), landfill gas, sewage gas, natural gas, propane and butane which have a very high calorific value.

One of the most important properties regarding use of gas in an engine is the knock resistance rated according to the ‘methane number’.

High knock resistance pure methane has a methane number of 100. In contrast to this, butane has a number of 10 and hydrogen 0 which is at the bottom of the scale and therefore has a low resistance to knocking.

REVOLUTIONISING AGRICULTURAL IRRIGATION

- THE IMPACT OF EVOPOWER

GENERATORS ON UK FARMING

In the heart of agricultural innovation, Evopower generators are revolutionising the efficiency and reliability of irrigation systems. With a focus on customization, technical expertise, and comprehensive support, Evopower is not only supplying generators but forging partnerships to propel global agricultural success and innovation.

Recently, Evopower showcased its engineering prowess in a collaboration with a farm nestled in southern England. Tasked with powering an intricate irrigation system, Evopower deployed its UKC175ECO Cummins powered diesel generator, demonstrating how tailored generator solutions can elevate agricultural productivity.

Understanding the functionality of irrigation systems

Irrigation systems serve as the lifeblood of agricultural endeavours, particularly in regions with irregular rainfall or anticipated droughts.

These systems meticulously coordinate pumps and sprinklers to deliver water precisely where

and when it’s needed most, sustaining crops and ensuring optimal growth and yield.

The farm in focus has taken proactive measures to mitigate water scarcity by constructing its reservoir, showcasing a commitment to resource management and agricultural sustainability.

This reservoir stands as the primary water source for the sophisticated sprinkler systems deployed across the farm.

Empowering irrigation systems with Evopower

Equipped with advanced sensors, the farm’s irrigation network responds dynamically to moisture levels and crop hydration requirements.

“Equipped with advanced sensors, the farm's irrigation network responds dynamically to moisture levels and crop hydration requirements. When watering is needed, the sensors trigger the main control panel, which activates the pump."

When watering is needed, the sensors trigger the main control panel, which activates the pump automatically. In order to meet the correct PSI the pumps need reliable electrical power, this is where the UKC175ECO Diesel generator seamlessly integrates into the system’s architecture.

In order to start the pumps, the control panel signals the generator to action. Under the supervision of the DSE6120 controller, the generator undergoes a brief, 1 minute warm-up phase to ensure optimal performance. The control panel will simultaneously send a start delay on the pumps to wait for the generator to warm up efficiently.

Once the engine has warmed-up, the generator is now ready to produce the power and the irrigation control will then start the pumps. The generator subsequently takes over the load and powers all the pumps in the cycles required.

With the generator powering the irrigation system, water is channelled from the reservoir through the sprinkler network, ensuring uniform water distribution across the entire expanse. The site features a Evopower supplied, 2000-litre external fuel tank, ensuring uninterrupted operation, with a sophisticated fuel management system which autonomously refuels the generator as needed. This system can therefore run autonomously as

GENSETS

as an unmanned site and provides approximately 75-hours of operation before refuelling is required.

Precision engineering and adaptability

Evopower’s commitment to precision engineering and adaptability ensures that each generator meets the specific demands of its application.

Encased in a soundproof enclosure, the generator boasts a robust Cummins 6BTAA5.9-G12 6-cylinder engine, ensuring steadfast performance even in harsh conditions. Equipped with its bunded fuel tank, capable of running for an impressive 12 hours at 75% load, the generator embodies efficiency and autonomy.

With its Cummins® heavy-duty engine this rugged 4-cycle, industrial diesel delivers reliable power, low emissions and fast response to load changes.

Several alternator sizes on offer provide selectable motor starting capability with low reactance 2/3 pitch windings, low waveform distortion with non-linear loads and fault clearing short-circuit capability.

There is a standard integral set-mounted radiator system which has been designed and tested for rated ambient temperatures. This simplifies facility design requirements for rejected heat.

For the generator optional weather protective and sound-attenuated enclosures are available. The generator has dual wall sub-base fuel tanks and in-skid day tanks are also offered by the manufacturer. The genset accepts full rated load in a single step in accordance with NFPA 110 for Level 1 systems.

Intelligent operation by the generators

Beyond hardware excellence, Evopower generators incorporate intelligence into their operation.

The integration of a Deepsea Electronics PLC control panel enables automation and reliability, with features like an Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) to maintain stability under varying loads, crucial for uninterrupted operation in critical agricultural processes.

Synergy and support

The synergy between Evopower’s generator and the farm’s irrigation system exemplifies a fusion of technological innovation and agriculture.

Evopower ensures seamless integration from consultation to commissioning, ensuring smooth collaboration with our onsite Evopower engineer, working closely with the Irrigation system, electrical contractor and generator engineers to offer a smooth setup.

Moreover, Evopower provides ongoing support and maintenance, empowering clients to optimise their investment’s lifespan and performance.

Driving agricultural transformation forward

In a landscape where agricultural water management is more important than ever, Evopower generators are driving irrigation transformation for horticulture and agriculture. With customisation, leading technical knowledge, innovation and unwavering support. Evopower is cultivating a future where innovation blooms alongside crops, ensuring sustainable growth for generations to come.

1000KVA DIESEL GENERATOR

INSTALLATION FOR A KEY SURREY-BASED NHS HOSPITAL

A diesel generator providing backup power was installed for a key Surrey hospital, one of the largest community health service providers in the UK, in fact. WB Power Services was awarded the opportunity by the Foundation Trust to scope, design and install a power solution for the hospital, providing vital back-up power for the facility in case of a mains power failure.

T

he installed solution comprised of 1 X 1000 kVA generating set installed in a roof mounted acoustic enclosure with extended exhaust gas flue, 2 x 20,000 litre bulk fuel storage tanks, fuel pipework installation and commissioning works.

-1 x Kohler KD1000-F generating set installed onsite

-2 x 20,000 litre bunded bulk fuel storage tanks installed

-Generator was installed within a bespoke, acoustic enclosure

The installed generating set chosen for the site was a Kohler KD1100-F 1000 kVA prime rated set, which was built to the following specification: Baseframe fuel tank; Engine heater; Alternator heater; Lube oil drain pump; CE Certification; APM403S Remote start control panel; Set

mounted, 4-pole Schneider ACB; Automatic lubricating oil replenishment system; Auto refill kit; and nclosed spring anti-vibration mountings.

Delivered and installed over six days, the generating set was offloaded and positioned on the roof deck of an incumbent single storey boiler house.

Due to craneage weight requirements, the bespoke enclosure was demountable. This allowed the set to be offloaded and positioned first before the enclousure was positioned on top.

The accompanying bulk fuel tanks were installed in a ground level compound.

The generating set was installed in a roof mounted enclosure with a bunded, acoustic base, built to achieve sound levels of 75 dBA @ 1m. The enclosure was also supplied with

“WB Power Services was awarded the opportunity by the Foundation Trust to scope, design and install a power solution for the hospital, providing vital back-up power for the facility in case of a mains power failure. The installed solution involved a 1,000 kVA generating set."

The enclosure was also supplied with the following: End mounted inlet and outlet attenuators; High level link box; Aluminium metal sprayed exhaust silencers.

The newly installed Kohler generating set, along with existing 100kVA generating set and new boilers are fed from a new bulk fuel storage facility.

CO2 REDUCTION

£12M FACILITY

AT SCOTTISH HQ

USES BREWING WASTE TO PRODUCE GREEN GAS

BrewDog has recently commissioned a £12 million green gas plant at its headquarters in Ellon, Aberdeenshire, in a move to cut carbon emissions.

BrewDog recently commissioned a £12 million green gas plant at its headquarters in Ellon, Aberdeenshire, in a move designed to cut carbon emissions.

A bio-energy plant currently powers the production of over 176 million pints of beer each year, which means 7,500 fewer tonnes of carbon emissions annually when the facility is running at full capacity.

At the plant, BrewDog combines wastewater with spent yeast and hops from its brewing process to be ‘digested’ by bacteria to produce biomethane. The company uses the CO2 created by the digester to carbonate its beer.

The anaerobic digester enables the craft beer producer to recycle most of the 200 million litres of wastewater produced every year in its beermaking process and to generate bio-methane to power the brewery’s boilers.

Sarah Warman, BrewDog’s director of sustainability, commented: “We’re not just here to make great beer – we’re making great beer that

doesn’t cost the earth. Our ambition is nothing short of making BrewDog beer the most planetfriendly beer on Earth, and we’ve taken giant strides towards that goal with our new bio-energy plant.”

She added: “Our number one sustainability goal is to reduce emissions and we want to lead the way for the entire brewing industry. We want all our teams to feel like the work they do supports our mission to protect the planet.”

Bioenergy is the energy obtained from biomass. Organic material containing bioenergy is known as biomass. This biomass can be obtained from production waste - in Brewdog's case this is biomethane.

Biomethane is an energy dense, storable, and flexible energy source with a high greenhouse gas saving potential and the ability to generate negative emissions. With a chemical property close to methane, biomethane can be transported through existing gas infrastructure and can be used with existing end-use technologies.

“A BrewDog bio-energy plant currently powers the production of over 176 million pints of beer each year, which means 7,500 fewer tonnes of carbon emissions annually when the facility is running at full capacity. At the plant, BrewDog combines wastewater

with spent yeast and hops from its brewing process to be ‘digested’ by bacteria to produce biomethane."

With mature technologies in production, transmission, and storage, biomethane can be readily deployed across the whole energy system using existing gas infrastructure.

Production costs for biomethane range from €50-€110/MWh depending on the feedstock, technology, and plant scale which is competitive against current natural gas prices.

In addition to the emissions avoided from replacing a fossil fuel, a similar amount of greenhouse gases either is effectively removed from the atmosphere (and stored in the land) or is avoided in adjacent systems.

In the large-scale deployment of biomethane to 350 TWh by 2030, the average lifecycle emissions are expected to be slightly below zero, due to a combination of avoiding emissions from alternative waste treatment, soil carbon accumulation, using digestate to replace fossil fertiliser, applying carbon capture and storage or replacement.

Compared to a fossil fuel comparator of between 75 and 95 g CO2eq/MJ the total savings will be about 100 g CO2eq/ MJ. This means that about 110 Mtonne CO2eq of emissions could be avoided by sustainable production and use of biomethane nationally www.brewdog.com. [

DEBATE POLITICISING NET ZERO ‘FUNDAMENTALLY UNHELPFUL’

Party leaders politicising net zero is fundamentally unhelpful for consumers and the climate.

That’s according to the Association for Decentralised Energy (ADE) in its response to the recent election debate.

Legally binding net zero targets depend on transitioning the UK to decarbonised heating.

The trade association states this can only be done with increased support for and deployment of heat pumps.

It insists that leaders of the parties must work towards rolling out low-carbon heat technologies that prioritise consumers and the climate.

The ADE’s new Head of External Affairs, Pablo John, said: “We are disappointed to see the party leaders politicising heat decarbonisation at last night's debate.

Research by the Climate Change Committee (CCC) recommends that the UK should be installing one million heat pumps a year by 2030 if we are to decarbonise heat at a rate that aligns with critical net zero targets.

“Distressing consumers around the cost of decarbonisation to score political points is fundamentally unhelpful. We will be working across this election and beyond, with all parties, to build consensus around the UK’s transition to clean heat.
