Zabrze multifuel circulating fluidised-bed steam-generating combined heat and power plant project, Poland
Name and Location
Zabrze multifuel circulating fluidised-bed (CFB) steam-generating combined heat and power (CHP) plant project, Poland.
Client
Fortum Zabrze.
Project Description
The project involves the construction of a 220 MW multifuel CFB steam-generating CHP plant, with a maximum production capacity of 145 MW for heating and 75 MW for electricity generation. The plant will provide district heating for an estimated 70 000 households. The new plant will replace the outdated existing coal-fired units in Zabrze and the nearby city of Bytom. The investment is expected to significantly improve the efficiency of operations and reduce carbon dioxide and other emissions in the area. The new multifuel boiler will primarily be powered by refuse-derived fuel (RDF) and coal, but can also use biomass and a mixture of other materials. The amount of RDF can be up to 50% of the total fuel use.

Duration
