The energy projects submitted for the award comprise locations in European cities as well as in Russian regions. MWM Austria, which is responsible for the Eastern European market, entered the competition at the VIII Distributed Power Generation \u2014 Great Achievements International Award with its innovative biogas plant project for AustroCel Hallein GmbH. Eventually, 71 projects made it onto the shortlist for the award after they had been examined in detail by an expert council comprising leading specialists of the distributed power generation industry, market leaders, heads of industry-related university facilities, and scientists. In the end, the biogas project of MWM Austria prevailed over those of its competitors and was designated the winner in the category “Best distributed power generation project \u2013 power capacity up to 5 MW”. The project stood out especially with the high plant reliability and its availability of up to 99.81 percent.<\/p>\n

Biogas CHP Plant with MWM TCG 2032 V16 Gas Engine Produces Eco-Friendly Power from Textile Pulp Manufacturing By-Products via Combined Heat and Power Generation<\/h2>\n

MWM Austria’s 3.77-MW biogas plant project was rolled out for the leading textile pulp manufacturer AustroCel Hallein GmbH in Hallein, Austria. The textile pulp is manufactured from spruce wood from sustainable forestry. Since the go-live of the biogas CHP plant<\/a>, it has been possible to use accumulating by-products and waste from the pulp production, such as bark, wood dust, and sludge for the production of biogas and subsequently for the generation of eco-friendly power. The combined heat and power plant<\/a>, which is also suitable for isolated operation, is driven by an MWM TCG 2032 V16 gas engine<\/a>. To extend the plant life and boost the efficiency of the gas engine, the biogas that is used for the power generation undergoes special treatment.<\/p>\n

This form of energy generation has significantly reduced the company’s carbon emissions. The bioenergy produced by AustroCel Hallein GmbH supplies up to 20,000 homes in the cities of Hallein and Salzburg with power and district heat. The award prize for the energy project – the \u00abGolden Lightning\u00bb award and a certificate of honor – were handed to Andreas Obwaller, Managing Director of MWM Austria GmbH, who attended the award ceremony via live link.<\/p>\n

Efficient and Sustainable Power Generation with Biogas<\/h2>\n

Energy from biomass can make a significant contribution to sustainable energy supply. The gas that accumulates as a by-product of numerous agricultural, food processing, and industrial processes serves as an energy source for power gensets with gas engines. MWM offers biogas-optimized gas engines, complete plants, and containers for combined heat and power generation. These systems achieve maximum efficiency in various output bands. MWM also provides the system components required for gas processing and treatment.<\/p>\n
