Biogas Gensets

Enertec biogas engines and CHP gensets are designed for the utilization of biogas from anaerobic digestion and range from 115 kW to 500 kW. The Enertec biogas engines are optimized for the operation with high kock resistant biogas.

The engines can handle impurities and work efficiently on gas with a high methane content. This means that biogas doesn’t need to be purified to the level of natural gas. This simplifies and reduces the cost of production, making it accessible and attractive. For South Africa, this is exactly the technology that can help overcome the current power supply crisis.

The heat demand of the anaerobic digester can be supplied by the thermal power from the engine jacket water of the GEN+ unit. For additional thermal heat requirements such as district heating the GEN CHP unit will be the most efficient solution.

Biogas plants can produce energy continuously, providing homes, businesses, schools and hospitals with a renewable and reliable alternative that is not subject to gas price fluctuations or availability. Unlike solar panels and wind turbines, biogas plants can operate 24 hours a day in any weather.
