Greenvironment receives first order from Romania
(firmenpresse) - - Microturbine approach wins due to low maintenance costs
- Attractive government incentives in Romania
- Advanced negotiations regarding five CHP projects with 800-1,000 kW electrical installed each in Romania alone
Berlin, 2nd August 2011 - Greenvironment Plc (WKN: A0YEKX / Symbol: GIV) today announced that it has received an order for a 200 kW Capstone microturbine for natural gas including other additional components as part of a cogeneration system. It was ordered by HospMed Project S.R.L., a Romanian energy service company, and will be installed at Medias Hospital in Medias, Romania. It is scheduled for completion in November 2011.
The cogeneration system serves a dual purpose of supplying electricity and heat to the facility that has around 335 beds (http://spitalulmedias.ro). HospMed Project S.R.L. will operate the system which will supply approximately 750 MWh electricity/year into the grid and 590 MWh electricity/year as well as 2,940 MWh heat/year to Medias Municipal Hospital.
Alexandra Toma, Managing Director of HospMed Project S.R.L., said: “Our efforts to provide the Medias population with high-quality, affordable medical services were forefront in our minds as we invested in this new equipment for the hospital. We wanted to make the best decision for the Medias patients and the bottom line of the hospital. We believe that a microturbine is the best economical decision in large part because of the lower maintenance costs.”
In Romania, Greenvironment is focusing primarily on the natural gas market. Romania has its own natural gas resources and due to the current privatization process, the market possibilities are very promising. The local presence is essential in order to get access to an annual market of more than 50 million Euro of new small-scale CHP plants.
Peter Dorner, COO of Greenvironment Plc, states: "The Greenvironment cogeneration system achieves a total efficiency slightly above 90 percent and saves the hospital around 10% of its annual energy costs. This is our first order from Romania for a cogeneration system using the Capstone microturbine. The Romanian market is developing very positively for us. At the moment, we are in advanced negotiations regarding five CHP projects with 800-1,000 kW electrical installed capacity each in Romania alone.”
