Combined Heat Power (CHP) projects Turkey
System description Combined Heat Power systems
The 6 Combined Heat Power systems are distributed as follows: at location A there are 4 CHPs, 3x 4.3MWe and 1x 1.6MWe. Site B has 2 CHPs of 4.3MWe. All CHPs can be controlled locally with the Comap IV8. This remote display is designed entirely according to customer requirements. This project was simulated at Controlin in Ridderkerk and commissioned on site. At both sites, the efficiency of the gas engines is fully utilized. A conversion of natural gas to steam, hot water and, of course, electricity. All switching operations of the generator controllers take place at the 35kV level.
In addition to running the Combined Heat Power systems in parallel with the grid for long periods of time, there is also the possibility of providing electricity to end users in island operation. In the event of a grid failure during parallel operation, the grid switch is switched off via fiber optics at project A at 800m and at location B at 1.5km. End users, where possible, will not be in the dark in the event of a grid failure. The CHPs go directly from mode net-parallel to mode load-sharing when the power switch is turned off.
The system automatically returns to grid parallel mode when the grid parameters are approved. Furthermore, an import/export scheme designed by Controlin is used. The client can influence the imported or exported assets. The CHPs start and stop automatically when there is a load demand or decrease. By applying run-hours balancing, the sets are kept equal in terms of running hours.
