Mannheim, April 28, 2020<\/p>\n

Dr\u00e4ger<\/b> is a globally leading enterprise that delivers technology for life<\/b>. Recently, the L\u00fcbeck-based company has come even more to the fore with its medical technology products and services<\/b>. In the current health situation, there is a great demand especially for the ventilators produced by Dr\u00e4ger. The company’s headquarters on Moislinger Allee in the Hanseatic city of L\u00fcbeck manage the production facilities and sales companies around the globe. To make sure that everything works smoothly at all times\u2014not only in times of crisis\u2014a dedicated MWM cogeneration power plant<\/b> that was established back in 2007 supplies about 30 percent of the heat and power. A substantial amount of energy is needed for the workforce of 3,000 at the Moislinger Allee site.\u00a0<\/p>\n

When the cogeneration power plant<\/b> was first set up in 2007, Dr\u00e4ger opted for reliable, efficient MWM engine technology in the form of a TCG 2020 V12. After 13 years of smooth operation, the core of the cogeneration power plant is now being replaced with an MWM TCG 2020 V12 gas genset with improved efficiency<\/b>. “By replacing the engine of the Dr\u00e4ger cogeneration power plant, we want to achieve even more carbon savings and improve the profitability”, says S\u00f6ren Sievertsen, project manager at Stadtwerke L\u00fcbeck. In the past, the cogeneration power plant was operated directly by Dr\u00e4ger; now, this will be handled by Stadtwerke L\u00fcbeck<\/b> under a contracting arrangement<\/b>.<\/p>\n

The heat-controlled cogeneration power plant<\/b> supplies heat energy and power for Dr\u00e4ger<\/b> and heat energy for various service providers on the premises. All of the generated heat is used for heating the workplaces in the factory halls and offices, and almost all of the 1 MW of power (per hour) that will henceforth be produced will be used locally and will not be fed into the local power grid. “In this way, we are able to cut Dr\u00e4ger’s power costs, as self-generated power is not subject to additional levies”, explains Bj\u00f6rn Verwold, account manager at Stadtwerke L\u00fcbeck. The long-standing cooperation for reliable power and heat supply<\/b> thanks to MWM will also continue with the Stadtwerke L\u00fcbeck. In June 2020, the new MWM gas engine<\/b>\u2014which boasts best-in-class electrical and thermal efficiency<\/b>\u2014will go live and continue to ensure hassle-free power and heat supply at Dr\u00e4ger<\/b>.<\/p>\n
