2011 - BioGas Power Plant MWM 2x400kWe / 50Hz with CHP for 90°C Hot Water

BioGas Power Plant MWM 2x400kWe / 50Hz with CHP for 90°C Hot Water

Combined Heat and Power (CHP) plant with 800 kWe / 400 V / 50 Hz output, designed to operate on natural gas or biogas. The plant was originally delivered by MWM in 2011 and remained in operation until 2021. It has low operating hours and is in good technical condition.Thermal energy is recovered as hot water at 90°C, currently utilized for district heating. Due to limited biogas availability, the plant typically ran at 30–40% load and not in continuous 24/7 operation

The facility includes a complete gas treatment and mixing system to handle landfill gas with a methane content of 40–55% CH₄.

The power generators are housed in two soundproof containers, while the TEAM Evo MWM power plant control system, electrical switchgear, and control cabinets are installed in a separate control room. The heat recovery system is installed adjacent to the genset containers. Both gensets are equipped with separate radiator cooling systems for engine cooling in case of no heat demand.
