PDP Energy can help its clients devise their microturbine packages, stressing on their performance (performance conformance to be determined at the manufacturer's factory test and total rated output power to be determined at the site ratings) in addition to being a source of clean energy (NOx emissions less than a certain ppm value).
A microturbine is a small turbine of compact design, comprised of a recuperated gas turbine engine, a combustor and a generator. The main subassemblies of the microturbine, its fuel system and its integrated controller are normally packaged in a single enclosure.
Our design and consultancy services cover the construction of open-cycle gas turbine power plants, and include the design of the gas turbine power plants, the preparation of tenders, the evaluation of the submitted bids, and the supervision of implementation works.
Our consultants consider a packaged gas turbine generating unit to be completed in all respects in terms of auxiliaries, instrumentation, grounding system and interconnection piping, cabling, gas fuel operation, air intake filtration facilities, inlet and exhaust silencing facilities, ducts and other ancillary equipment.
Moreover, in order for our team to reach its determination on the evaluation of bids, it normally examines and compares the technical aspects of the bids on the basis of the information supplied by the bidders. They take into account overall completeness, compliance with the employer’s requirements, conformity of the plant, and Installation services offered with specified performance criteria. They include conformity with the specified minimum (or maximum, as the case may be) requirement corresponding to each functional guarantee as indicated in the specifications, and suitability of the plant and installation services offered in relation to the environmental and climatic conditions prevailing at the site. In addition to quality, function and operation of any process control concept included in the bid, and type, quantity and long-term availability of mandatory and recommended spare parts and maintenance services.
Trigeneration meaning can be summarized as the simultaneous production of Power, Heat and Chilled Water. Trigeneration has many benefits as listed below for stakeholders as facility owners, municipalities, and electric utilities. At PDP Energy, we make sure that all these benefits come to realization.
Main benefits to facility owners:
- Improved operating margins from energy cost reductions.
- Increased power reliability which promotes business continuity.
- Enhanced power quality which promotes productivity.
Main benefits to the environment:
- Improved air quality through reductions of harmful pollutants such as nitrous oxides that are the key to smog formation.
- Reduced need to utilize diesel generators for backup power.
- Increased conservation of natural resources such as fresh water and natural gas.
- Greenhouse effect reduction.
Main benefits to municipalities:
- Urban beautification.
-More safety for people.
- More space in cities.
- Noise pollution reduction.
Main benefits to electric utilities:
- Enhanced reliability of transmission and distribution systems.
- Additional revenue streams through the sale of steam and/or chilled water.
- Customer retention.
- Improve asset utilization by minimizing investments in over capacity.
PDP Energy can help in integrating a CHP (Combined Heat and Power) solution to an existing generation system or recommend the proper solution for a new installation.
We make sure in our design basis that the CHP systems: › are optimized for maximum energy recovery › are designed to latest environmental standards (BAT) › are prepared for future technical standards and innovations › integrate technical standards with existing plant for optimal operating efficiency
