ALTEO-Therm Ltd. has successfully completed a HUF 434 million investment project to replace the former 3.2 MW Wärtsilä 220 SG gas engine at its Tiszaújváros site with a modern, refurbished Jenbacher J620 model.
As part of the project, not only was the gas engine replaced, but the mechanical, electrical and control systems of the auxiliary systems were also modernized.
As part of the investment, a new tray cooling unit was also installed, which will allow the gas engine to operate without performance restrictions even on extremely hot summer days.
As a result of the investment, the efficiency of the Tiszaújváros heating plant has improved significantly, while the built-in compact equipment ensures easier operation. Thanks to the modernization, maintenance costs are also expected to decrease, as spare parts for the new Jenbacher gas engine are more readily available and a better supply of spare parts is ensured.
The new gas engine is not only more reliable, but also has better control characteristics. Due to its improved load gradient, the system's control capabilities have also been improved, which is an advantage for ALTEO's Control Center (ASZK) in providing system balancing services.
With this development, ALTEO further strengthens its sustainable and efficient energy portfolio, contributing to the company's long-term strategy and environmentally friendly operations.
