Major 12.9 MW energy project at ZGH Bolesław, Poland
01.03.2024
Recently, one of the most important projects of the TEDOM Group was commissioned at the premises of the Polish company ZGH Bolesław, which we implemented in cooperation with Introl Energomontaz. The modern cogeneration system consisting of three Quanto units, which replaced an outdated coal-fired steam boiler, leads to a significant increase in energy efficiency and a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, which contributes to environmental protection.
The plant, located in Bukowno, produces 12.9 MW of electricity, 5.9 MW of heat and almost 10 tonnes of steam per hour. The electricity produced is used continuously by the customer, the heat is partly used for the customer’s needs and the residual heat is distributed through heat pipes to neighbouring towns. This project not only increases the energy independence of ZGH Bolesław, but also serves as a model for other companies in the heavy industry sector for more sustainable energy solutions.
