Project summary

The project aims to reduce the fossil fuel (natural gas) consumption and to improve environment due to the usage of alternative energy resources (waste cooling water system at OJSC “AISW” as the low potential heat) and the modern cogeneration complex.

The project envisages the implementation of the modern energy complex with the usage of gas-piston cogeneration facilities and heat pumps for the provision of hot water and heat supply in Alchevsk city.

Technology to be employed by the project

The project activity includes the installation of:

• 2 modern gas-piston engines of combined cycle with electricity capacity of 5,75 MW and with heat capacity of 4,7 MW;
• system of heat pumps with the total capacity of 50 MW;
• subsidiary equipment.

Emission reduction of СО₂

The emission reduction units are achieved due to reduction of natural gas consumption.

The presented project was included to the list of projects for the primary implementation according to the direction of CMU № 609-r of 20th May, 2009.
