National Company for Maize Products (NCMP) - Combined Heat & Power Project
Gold Standard · GS12990 · Egypt
About this project
The project is a CHP plant that efficiently generates thermal and electrical energy. The project site is located within the boundary of the existing NCMP (National Company of Maize Products) factory in 10th of Ramadan Industrial complex, Egypt. This plant will be constructed over an area of ~1793 m2. The assigned land is surrounded by existing and active systems within the factory premises. The project is to efficiently satisfy the factory needs and consumptions of energy (Thermal & Electric Power). Such energy requirements were originally supplied through the national electricity grid as well as dedicated boilers to generate the required estimates of process steam. Losses are reduced thanks to on-site power generation, and heat that would otherwise be lost is used to power facility loads in the form of steam via HRSG (Heat Recovery Steam Generator) for process heating steam. Such solution can offer carbon savings by the amount of the natural gas fuel reserved for firing in the boilers for steam production (around 25~30%). The solution involves the supply & install of one SGT-400 Siemens Gas turbine Generator (GTG) capable of delivering 12.9 MW at generator terminals at ISO conditions along with a one single pressure level drum type HRSG to deliver superheated steam of 17.05 barg & 215 C to support the factory needs. The efficient utilization of the fuel results in lower greenhouse gas emissions by 28,492.14 tCO2e/year.
