District heat production, Sweden
Name of the Project
District heat production.
Location
The project is located in Gothenburg, Sweden.
Project Owner/s
Göteborg Energi.
Project Description
The project involves the supply of a complete plant for the production of district heat.
With the new hot-water plant, fossil carbon dioxide emissions will be reduced by 25 000 t/y.
The new boiler plant will replace two old boilers that were originally designed for oil and coal, but were converted to run on wood pellets in 2003.
The new boiler will be 25% larger than the two old ones combined. It will also have a longer operating season.
Since the number of operating hours on pellets will increase, the use of natural gas will decrease. The ash from the combustion will be returned to the forest.
Potential Job Creation
Not stated.
Capital Expenditure
The project is estimated at €40-million.
Planned Start/End Date
Demolition of the existing plant will start in April 2021, and the new plant will be started up in December 2021.
Latest Developments
None stated.
Key Contracts, Suppliers and Consultants
