Energy centre for a Mining and Processing Plant
24.4 MW
21 Gcal/h
In 2012 - 2018, MKC Group of Companies implemented three stages of the energy centre for a large gold mining company. The total electric capacity of the power plant for Central mine is 24.4 MW, heat capacity is 21 Gcal/h.
With the launch of the gas genset power plant, JSC «UGC» reached a new level of energy efficiency. The energy savings that the own mini-MPP allowed to achieve became significant: with the launch of a new station the price of electric power for the miners decreased threefold, and the heat power, as a by-product, became free of charge.
The mini-MPP operates in a cogeneration mode (simultaneous electric and heat power generation), thanks to which the total efficiency reached 90%, providing economy-efficient fuel consumption. Natural gas is used as fuel. The energy centre operates in a parallel mode with the external network.
Main equipment:
- Stage 1 — Caterpillar G3520E 2 MW — 8 units
- Stage 2 — MWM TCG 2020 V12 1,2 MW — 2 units
- Stage 3 — MWM TCG 2020 V20 2 MW — 3 units
NB: in 7 years of cooperation the MKC Group of Companies has put into operation 6 objects for JSC «UGC» with a total capacity of 54,4 MW.
Gas generator set MWM TCG 2020 V20
The optimized model is the most popular in the MWM TCG 2020 series to be used in the industrial sector.
