2007年6月4日 阿爾斯通與歐洲utility E.ON簽署了一份價值5.8億歐元的合同，在英國Kent的Isle of Grain承包建設一個1,275 MW聯(lián)合熱電共生廠。此外，阿爾斯通還與E.ON簽署了一份12年的長期服務協(xié)議。 替換英國許多陳舊的發(fā)電廠是此大型工程的一部分，這是E.ON授予阿爾斯通的首個設計、采購和施工（EPC）合同，阿爾斯通建設一個基于GT26技術的天然氣聯(lián)合循環(huán)電廠，Enfield也是阿爾斯通運用同樣的技術建設的一個聯(lián)合循環(huán)電廠，兩年前該電廠被E.ON購買。 阿爾斯通將提供所有EPC服務，承包建設一個完全集成的聯(lián)合熱電共生廠。該電廠有三個聯(lián)合循環(huán)機組組成，每個機組包括一個GT26燃氣輪機，一個汽輪機和一個高效渦輪發(fā)電機。發(fā)電廠產生的廢熱將被熱電廠附近的液化天然氣設備重新使用。 現(xiàn)在，在全球有81個阿爾斯通GT24/GT26機組投入商業(yè)運營，其中六個GT26機組已經在英國投入使用，另外兩個機組正在Langage （Devon）建設中。此外，該機組點火時間已經累計超過220萬小時。阿爾斯通電力系統(tǒng)Philippe Joubert陳述道：“基于我們在Enfield熱電廠技術的卓越表現(xiàn)，我們非常高興E.ON選擇了阿爾斯通。因為聯(lián)合熱電廠的發(fā)電效率超過70％，我們將對環(huán)境的影響和產生的二氧化碳的排放量減少到最小?！? “聯(lián)合熱電廠是一個運用單一燃料發(fā)電發(fā)熱的高效，潔凈而且可靠的方法。運用傳統(tǒng)發(fā)電中丟棄的熱量產生熱能?！边@種熱能用于為工業(yè)設備，地區(qū)能源系統(tǒng)和商業(yè)大樓提供制冷和采暖。通過回收廢熱，CHP系統(tǒng)取得了高效率，還降低了氮氧化物，二氧化硫，汞，微粒物質和二氧化碳的排放，這些都是典型的影響氣候變化的溫室氣體。 original text： [COLOR=#708090]Alstom to construct the largest combined heat and power plant in the UK 04 June 2007 Alstom has signed a contract worth 580 million euro with the European utility E.ON for the construction of a 1,275 MW turnkey combined heat and power plant （CHP）＊ at the Isle of Grain in Kent, United Kingdom. In addition, Alstom has signed a long-term service agreement with E.ON for a twelve year period. Part of a large programme to replace many ageing power stations in the UK, this is the first Engineering, Procurement and Construction （EPC） contract awarded to Alstom by E.ON for a GT26 technology-based, gas-fired combined cycle plant. Enfield, a combined cycle plant also built by Alstom using the same technology, was bought two years ago by E.ON. Alstom will provide all EPC services to deliver a fully integrated turnkey combined heat and power plant. The plant is composed of three combined cycle units, each including one GT26 gas turbine, one steam turbine and one high-efficiency turbogenerator. The waste heat generated by the power plant will be re-used by a Liquefied Natural Gas （LNG） facility, close to the plant, for its own needs. Today, there are 81 Alstom GT24/GT26 units in commercial operation worldwide, with six GT26 units already operating in the UK and two additional units in construction at Langage （Devon）. Furthermore, the fleet has accumulated over 2.2 million firing hours. Philippe Joubert, President of Alstom Power Systems, stated: “Based on the excellent performance of our technology at Enfield, we are delighted that E.ON has chosen Alstom for this contract. Because the efficiency of the combined heat power plant is over 70%, we minimise the impact on the environment and consequently reduce CO2 emissions.” ＊Combined Heat and Power （CHP） is an efficient, clean, and reliable approach to generating power and thermal energy from a single fuel source. It uses heat that is otherwise discarded from a conventional power generation to produce thermal energy. This energy is used to provide cooling or heating for industrial facilities, district energy systems, and commercial buildings. By recycling this waste heat, CHP systems achieve high efficiencies, which also reduce air emissions of nitrous oxides, sulphur dioxide, mercury, particulate matter, and carbon dioxide, the leading greenhouse gas associated with climate change.[/COLOR]
