Energy Resilience

Gas engines can be fuelled by numerous low-carbon or renewable fuels including natural gas, biogas, biomethane or hydrogen. This can be transported by highly reliable pipeline, or for full security stored locally as compressed or liquified gas.

Gas engines generate electricity, also heat from the engines can be recovered with combined heat and power technology as hot water or steam for local use. Heat can also be converted into cooling, using absorption chillers for refrigeration or air conditioning.

Gas engines can also support the resilience of the electricity network itself, supporting voltage and frequency stability. Gas fuelled peaking stations can provide rapid dispatchable power. These are deployed to help balance demand and supply related to intermittent renewable energy, such as wind and solar power, or due to the unexpected shut down of other power generation sources.

Gas engine power plants can be controlled remotely and can dispatch power at the click of a button.

The modular nature of the engine systems allows rapid on-site installation and commissioning over a wide range of plant sizes and configurations.
