Microturbine CHP plant

SIMPLY BRILLIANT - BRILLIANTLY SIMPLE

Combined heat and power, also called cogeneration or CHP for short, is the name given to the simultaneous conversion of the energy used into electricity and heat. This efficient form of energy generation makes better use of the fuel and the energy losses are reduced to less than 20 %. For this reason, cogeneration is not only particularly economic, but also especially environmentally friendly.

By using the highly efficient microturbine CHP plants you optimise your resource consumption, reduce your CO2 emissions and make a valuable contribution to climate protection.

The flexibility of microturbines is particularly impressive. This not only applies to the fuels used, which range from natural gas to biogas through to associated gas and kerosene, but also to the different areas of application. All the thermal energy exists in the exhaust air of the microturbine and has a constantly high temperature level of 280 °C. With this, target temperatures of up to 180 °C can be economically achieved.

The special features of turbine technology at a glance:

Microturbine GVM 200 N
  • Use of various fuels possible, including: natural gas, biogas, associated gas, biodiesel, kerosene
  • Good part-load performance due to variable speeds
  • Electricity feed-in begins within seconds of ignition
  • High availability with low downtimes
  • Long life
  • Very short amortization period
  • Thanks to its air bearings, the single shaft is subjected to low wear; which makes it low-maintenance and therefore maintenance costs are also low
  • No lubricant or coolant necessary, as gearless plant
  • Exhaust air temperature from 309 °C
  • Low exhaust air and sound emissions
  • No setup necessary for synchronisation with the electricity network
  • Suitable for isolated operation
