The march of the Supergrid

In your wildest imaginations did you ever think the UK might one day finditself perched on the edge of a vast supergrid which stretches all the wayacross Europe to North Africa? Certainly, the idea of building an energy Supergrid is popular with

Green politicians as it would permit tidally-generated energy, or power from wind farms, solar andother low carbon power sources such as geothermal to be delivered to energy storage cells or direct tothe consumer.

Some experts suggest that this would eliminate the problems of both intermittency and a requirementfor expensive standby power plants. Most importantly, it would be one way to make a significantcontribution to overcoming the factors which influence climate change.

Another government idea currently being mooted involves the creation of an offshore EuropeanSupergrid designed to significantly reduce the costs of wind power and make land-based pylons extinct.A new report from UK’s MPs suggests - "The UK is virtually an electricity island" and that the UKgovernment should ends its "laissez-faire approach to offshore transmission" by developing aco-ordinated power grid in the North Sea which could plug into a future European supergrid.

"Offshore networks can deliver electricity where it's needed without adding to the advancing army ofpylons that's marching its way across our countryside," Tim Yeo MP, the committee chairman, has said.

Yeo argues: "At the moment, we are paying some [wind] generators to switch off because we haven'tgot the wires to deliver the electricity. An offshore grid can relieve some of this pressure. We have vastoffshore resources of renewable energy. In fact, we potentially have enough wind, wave and tidalenergy to more than match our North Sea oil and gas production and transform the country from a netenergy importer to a net energy exporter."

Thus, the argument goes that a UK offshore grid could definitely help to deliver low carbon, moresecure energy and at a lower cost.

The idea of a supergrid is by no means a new one. In 2009 DESERTEC emerged - this is a conceptproposed by the DESERTEC Foundation for making use of solar energy and wind energy. The idea is thatthis concept will be implemented in North Africa and the Middle East by the consortium Dii GmbH,formed by a group of European companies and the DESERTEC Foundation. The DESERTEC concept wasinitiated under the auspices of the Club of Rome and the German Trans-Mediterranean RenewableEnergy Cooperation (TREC).

Under the DESERTEC proposal, concentrating solar power systems, photovoltaic systems and windparks would be spread over the desert regions inNorthern Africa like the Sahara desert.

All the electricity produced would be transmittedto European and African countries by a supergrid ofhigh-voltage direct current cables.

It could provide a considerable part of theelectricity demand of the MENA countries andfurthermore provide continental Europe with 15%of its electricity needs.

By 2050, investments into solar plants andtransmission lines would be total €400 billion.

The exact plan, including technical and financialrequirements, is projected to be finished by 2012.And only just in time, don’t you think?

SA foundry takesJenbacher enginesThos Begbie & Company,based in Middelburg,Mpumalanga, SouthAfrica, has become self-sufficient through the useof Jenbacher gas enginesystems. GE has providedthe company with anadditional 10MW ofelectricity to power extrafurnaces. GE wascontracted to provide four2.7 MW, J620 naturalgas-fired Jenbacherengines used to power thearc furnaces used in thefoundry’s preheatingprocesses. The Jenbacherengines have reduced theeffect of power outageson the factory, andimproved its productionstability, says thecompany

618MW plant toreplace coal burnerUS-based Louisville Gas &Electric Co. will replaceits ageing 618 MW CaneRun coal-fired powerplant with a 640 MWnatural gas-fired plant by2016. LGE and Kentucky Utilitiesare asking local stateauthorities to approve thepurchase of BluegrassGeneration Co’s 495 MWnatural gas-fired powerplant to replace theGreen River and Tyronecoal-fired power plants.The Tyrone plant iscurrently mothballed. Thecompanies said they areshutting down the olderplants to comply with U.S.Environmental ProtectionAgency rules in areas suchas emissions and meetingradical anti-pollution

Wärtsilä's dual-fuel engines have exceeded 3 millionrunning hours in both land-based and marineapplications. This milestone represents a dual-fueltechnology track record that cannot be matched byany other engine manufacturer, claims thecompany.Wärtsilä, a global leader in complete lifecycle

power solutions for the marine and energy markets,is the recognised frontrunner in dual-fuel enginetechnology. The Wärtsilä DF engine series isincreasingly the power solution choice for utilitiesand energy companies, as well as for all segmentsof the marine industry, worldwide, reports themanufacturer. With the engines having passed3 million hours of reliable and efficient operation,the effectiveness of this technology is proven.Today, the total number of Wärtsilä DF enginesdelivered to both marine and land-based applica-tions is 470.Dual-fuel engine technology provides the flexibility

to switch between the use of natural gas and heavyfuel oil (HFO), light fuel oil (LFO) and various otherliquid fuels. This flexibility in fuel choice offersnumerous tangible benefits, both economic and

environmental.With oil pricesfluctuating andenvironmentalregulationsbecomingincreasinglystringent, theoperator has thefreedom to selectthe most cost-

effective and readily available fuel, whilst alsohaving the ability to utilise natural gas in order tocomply with emission limitations."For the power plant business, Wärtsilä's dual-fuel

technology offers the perfect bridging solution forswitching from liquid fuel to natural gas. The use ofnatural gas in power generation is rapidlyincreasing, but many locations are currentlywithout a ready gas supply. Dual-fuel technologyenables customers in such areas to generateelectricity, first with HFO and then to switch laterto gas once it becomes available. Having nowexceeded 3 million hours of reliable and efficientoperation, there can be no doubt as to theeffectiveness of this technology," Vesa Riihimäki,Group Vice President, Wärtsilä Power Plants, tellsWIP. "A transition to LNG fuel is one of the mostrealistic options for significantly reducing theenvironmental footprint. Carbon-based greenhousegas emissions can be reduced by at least 15%, whilesulphur and nitrogen oxide emissions are practicallyentirely eliminated,” he said.

China: standards add $40bn to air clean-upContrary to popular belief, Chinais ahead of the US in cleaning upits air emissions from coal-firedpower plants. Furthermore,regulations will be tightenedtriggering another US$40 billion ininvestment. This is theconclusion reached in FGD WorldMarkets, a continually-updatedeconomic report from theMcIlvaine Company. China has installed flue gasdesulphuristion systems on532,000 MW of capacity as of theend of 2010, says the report.This compares to less than

200,000 MW of FGD in the US. Noother country in the world hasmore than 50,000 MW of FGD.With 707,000 MW of total coal-fired capacity, China has fittedmore than 75% of its coal-firedcapacity with FGD. Thiscompares to less than 60% in theU.S. New standards to take effecton January 1st, 2012 will limitsulphur emissions in populatedareas to 100 mg/Nm3. This is areduction from the presentgeneral standard of 400 mg/Nm3.China is also investing more inNOx reduction than any other

country and is now targetedmercury. China has also under-taken a massive program to shutdown 76,000 MW of old smallcoal-fired power plants. This ismore capacity than exists in anycountry except the US.

New 600V DiodeStar rectifiers available

Diodes Incorporated, a leadingglobal manufacturer and supplierof high-quality applicationspecific standard products withinthe broad discrete, logic andanalog semiconductor markets,today announced that it hasexpanded its range of DiodeStar™products with the introduction oftwo new 600V DiodeStar rectifierstargeted at power factorcorrection (PFC) boost diodeapplications. The DSR6V600P5 andthe DSR6U600P5 are housed in

Diodes’ proprietary PowerDI®5package, a thermally efficient,low-profile, small-form-factorpackage that enables the designof thinner and cooler products. These new high voltage rectifiersare particularly suitable for use inhigh-density switched modepower supplies (SMPS) for LED TVsand adaptors, as well as recircu-lation diodes in high intensitydischarge (HID) lightingapplications. With an off-boardprofile of 1.1mm, the ultra small

PowerDI-5 package is 52% thinnerthan the industry-standard DPakand occupies just 43% of theboard space. In addition, it offerssignificantly lower thermalresistance (Rthj-c), thus enablinghigher density designs.Optimised for use in PFC circuitsthat operate in continuousconduction mode (CCM), theDSR6V600P5 features low reverserecovery time (Trr) and reverserecovery charge (Qrr) to ensurethat boost diode reverse recoverylosses are kept to a minimum.Similarly, the DSR6U600P5 hasbeen tuned for both low forwardvoltage drop (VF) and low Trr inorder to meet the compromiserequirements of those PFCcircuits operating under boundaryconduction mode (BCM).Both the DSR6V600P5 andDSR6U600P5 feature a typicalsoftness factor of 0.7, to ensuresoft switching with decreasedelectrical noise that can lead to areduction of EMI shielding andsnubber circuits for simplifieddesign and lower componentcount.

CHP system off to a frying startThe UK’s largest French-Fry manufacturing facility has reduced the operating costs of its waste treatmentprocess thanks to a biogas-fuelled CHP system from CHP Solutions, a subsidiary of Dresser-Rand.Located in Peterborough, the factory produces a wastewater output rich in potato starch, which must becleaned and treated before it is properly discharged from the site. A covered anaerobic lagoon is the firststage in the site’s wastewater treatment process and this lagoon produces biogas as a by-product.Dresser-Rand supplied a packaged, biogas-fuelled CHP unit of nominally 1 MW electrical output. Poweredby a spark ignition reciprocating engine, the system was sized to optimise electrical generation from theavailable gas from the lagoon.In addition to installing the CHP unit, the factory upgraded the facility byincorporating a gas scrubber to clean the process and this CAL produces biogas which has a high methanecontent) as a by-product. The biogas qualifies as a renewable fuel. A spokesman told WIP: “The factory has installed a completely packaged, biogas-fueled combined heatand power (CHP) unit of nominally 1 MW electrical output from CHP Solutions. Powered by a high-efficiency, spark-ignition, reciprocating engine, the system was designed to burn the available gas. Biogasfrom the CAL process is burned in the CHP to produce electricity. Without the CHP unit, electricity wouldneed to be imported from the grid, which is supplied by a power station burning fossil fuel.”

In addition to the CHP unit, the factory upgraded the facility byincorporating a gas scrubber to clean the sulphur from thebiogas and a gas booster plant to bring the gas supply pressureup to the level required for the CHP unit. The system reduces operating costs by displacing importedpower and by qualifying for Renewable Obligation Certificates(ROCs) which are tradable. Classifed as ‘advanced anaerobicdigestion’ this project qualified for two ROCs for each MW perhour of electricity generated from renewable resources. Thecapital investment in the gas system upgrade and the CHPinstallation was offset by the ROCs and displaced importedpower cost, as it contributes up to 10% of the site’s annualelectrical requirement.

The Szarvas biogas contract will transform theenergy landscape for Hungary, say analystsHungary’s largest biogas power plant wasofficially opened on 13th September in thecity of Szarvas. It now provides 4.2 MW ofelectricity and an equal amount of heat,supporting onsite operations and feedingthe local grid.German company r.e Bioenergie has builtthe combined cooling, heat and power(CCHP) plant, which features threeJenbacher J416 engines supplied by GE.The plant is being run in close co-operationwith the poultry-processing plant operatorGallicoop Pulykafeldolgozó, which providesmuch of the raw biomass which isconverted into biogas to power theJenbacher engines.The anaerobic digestion facility is about 4km east of the poultry processing plant. Tooptimise the efficiency of the thermalenergy, a special pipeline delivers thebiogas from the digester facility to theJenbacher engines at the processing plant.The CCHP system’s thermal power is thenused to supply on-site heating and cooling.Any excess electricity is fed into the localgrid.More than 16% of the revenues for the siteare generated by the sale of the by-product- thermal energy - in the form of steam,hot water and refrigeration to localindustrial customers. CO2-neutral energy and high-qualityfertiliser for agriculture are produced frommore than 40,000 tons per year ofproblematic waste coming from foodproduction and further 53,000 tons per yearof manure from nearby livestock farms,which previously had to be disposed of, anoften-expensive process."The selected technology and controlsystem were designed for maximumeffi ciency, thus enabling the plant tooptimise the production of electricity

during peak load times by following thecourse of the time-variable Hungarian feed-in tariffs. “With the company Gallicoop Zrt. and otherreliable local project partners, sustainablesynergies could be created for substratesupply and the utilisation of heat,"commented a company spokesman.The high density of animal breeding andharvested plants in the local environmentsurrounding the plant provides plenty oforganic waste steams to be converted intoenergy by anaerobic digestion, reports thecompany. The region is said to offer idealconditions for the cultivation of renewableraw materials such as sweet sorghum as anadditional energy source.r.e Bioenergie is well-known for developing,constructing and operating biogas plants inselected regions of Europe. The company’sbiogas portfolio includes installed electriccapacities of over 30MW. The servicespectrum of r.e Bioenergie includes thewhole value creation chain of biogasproduction from the first feasibility analy-ses to trading with biomethane. The marketing of the biogas - which isproduced and cleaned and sold asbiomethane - is handled by a separateentity, r.e Bioenergie GmbH. Biomethane isCO2-neutral. CO2 released due to energeticutilisation is bound by energy crops duringphotosynthesizing.

Greenvironment’s pilot plantCogeneration specialist Greenvironmenthas received orders from an oil and gasproducer to build two 200 kW microturbineCHP plants in Germany to convert itsassociated petroleum gas (APG) from theextraction of crude oil into electricity aswell as heat.Greenvironment is currently constructing apilot plant to show that fluctuatingvolumes of gas with a varying compositioncan be effectively used in microturbines togenerate power.The electricity generated will mainly beused for operating the plant tiself. Excesselectricity will be fed into the local utilitygrid while the thermal energy producedwill be used as process heat."Though these are German projects, itgives us a lot of know-how about how theturbines can be used on associatedpetroleum gas," commented MattiMalkamäki, CEO of Greenvironment."We have a number of similar caseswaiting, not only in Germany but also inPoland and Romania where similar needsexist."

CHP plant for BosniaGermany’s Ferrostaal and Austria’s ChristofGroup have agreed to pool their efforts in

the construction of a CHP plant in Zenica,Bosnia. KTG Zenica, a project companyowned by Switzerland’s KTG with a 75%share and the municipality of Zenica with a25% share, awarded the project to theFerrostaal-Christof consortium on a fullEPC basis.The gas-fired plant will have an electricalcapacity of 240 MW and a thermal capacityof 170 MWth: it will serve the fluctuatingpower demands of both Bosnia andHerzegovina. The facility will comprisetwo gas turbines and one steam turbineallowing variable operation in both openand combined-cycle modes, with and with-out district heating. Ferrostaal puts thecost in excess of €250 million (US$351m)and will meet Zenica´s demand for areliable source of thermal power fordistrict heating purposes. The new capacitywill come onstream in mid-2014.

Despite languishing in the doldrumsfor many years the gas and steamturbines market in Western Europe

is projected to improve in terms of profitsbetween the years 2012 - 2014. Accordingto research from Frost & Sullivan by 2017this sector could be worth as much as US$2billion.

Frost & Sullivan industry analyst PritilGunjan tells WIP: “Electricity demandfrom both mature and emergingeconomies and decommissioning of notonly old conventional thermal powerplants but also nuclear power facilitiesare the key factors driving the westernEuropean gas and steam turbinesmarket.”

He explains: “Decommissioning capacityand the need to comply with legislationwill fuel the demand for both gas andsteam turbines in these regions areinfluencing this situation. There is a highcurrent need for replacement turbinesacross the UK, Italy, France andGermany.”

Market uncertainties over carbontrading, electricity sector legislation andimminent rises in commodity prices willnot prevent a recovery in the medium-to-long term, he believes.

Orders placed with manufacturers duringthe buoyant market conditions of 2007–08had sustained companies during the diffi-cult times. However, these ‘legacy orders’have now been fulfilled. New orders arestill low in number, but they areanticipated to increase from 2012onwards.

Frost & Sullivan's Western European Gasand Steam Turbines Market reportsuggests that the market earned revenuesof US$473m in 2010 and estimates this toreach US$2138m in 2017.

Guijan concludes: “In addition, otherforms of environment-friendlytechnologies such as cogeneration arepoised to develop further, contributing tothe demand for steam turbines.”

Certainly, the world's power demandsare expected to rise 60% by 2030. Withthe worldwide total of active coal plants

ECONOMIC REPORT

Oover the past 20 years theworldwide development of wire-less, wireline, and satellite

networks has been remarkable, settingthe stage for M2M applications andequipment to utilise those existingnetworks. Globally, there are over 1bnpersonal computers in service, 4bnwireless phones and over 1 billion wirelinephones. Yet there are only a couplehundred million dedicated M2M devices inservice.

Twenty years from now these numbershould be reversed, perhaps 10 billionphones and computers in service with 25to 50 billion M2M devices with themajority of these devices being of them2m variety needing zero humaninteraction for continuous communicationservice.

Frost & Sullivan predicts that thismarket will grow up to 31% (CAGR) in allvertical industry (contributed mainly bySmart Metering, Automotive, HomeAutomation, and Healthcare) from 2010 to2015 . This is particularly true as they arelinked to the economic, sociological, andgovernmental climate and commitments.

Currently, M2M application is mainlyused in the electric smart meter devices.

Many of thegovernment programscomes with associatedfunds have emerged with ambitiousdeadlines and a roadmap to see thisthrough. The end users are becomingmore aware of the benefits of smartmeters and may be ready to changebehavior even at a cost to reduce itscarbon footprint.

In this part of the world countries suchas China, Australia and South Korea havelaid out their plans and road maps toincrease its generation of green energyefforts.

Frost & Sullivan expects global smartmetering deployment to grow up to 10%each year on a 7 year CAGR between 2009

and 2016. However, these are not withoutchallenges mainly in the economical andtechnical barrier. The process to deploySmart grid and Smart meter is a long andcostly process. It requires significantcapital investment for the project. AsSmart grid and Smart meter projects haveonly been implemented recently/piloted,ROI (Return On Investment) is not clearlydefined. The main technical barrier isstandardisation of communicationstandards. Without this requirement, costfor deployment, technology changes andnon-interoperability will slow smart metergrowth.

GSM and GPRS are only covering a smallpart of the entire smart meter devices.Most of devices are directly connected onnetwork. In conclusion, though it is costlyat the moment to see this through butthis new era is at hand.

The exciting new world of M2M is trulyon track, F&S believes.

The process to deploy Smart grid and Smart meter is a long and costly process. It requiressignificant capital investment for the project. Here, Frost & Sullivan considers the impact of

GAS TURBINES

In the UK, Great Ynys Farm is now usingpoultry power to become more eco-friendly and generate a new income

stream as a renewable energy generator. The Hereford-based farm, which has 125

acres of arable land and a 90,000 broilerchicken operation, is currently usinganaerobic digestion (AD) to convertchicken excrement into biogas forrenewable electricity & heat generation.

The green electricity powers the poultryhouses and AD system, with a 90% surplussold to the National Grid, while thecaptured waste heat provides warmth forthe chicken houses – displacing costly fueloil and propane gas.

The farm’s new green power company –called Ynergy Ltd - has contracted biogasgeneration experts ENER-G and biogasplant manufacturer PlanET Biogastechnikfor project delivery. Ground works werecarried out by local contractors JJ Stanleyand concrete tank construction by theYorkshire-based company Galglass.Triangle Ltd supplied the low voltageelectrical Panel.

The AD system has the capacity toprocess 700 tonnes of poultry litter and1,000 tonnes of cattle slurry, mixed with

‘Fowl’ electricity - a biogas-fuelled generator is the answer

3,000 tonnes of maize silage per annum.Use of maize reduces nitrogen levels inthe digestion process and prevents thebuild up of high concentrations ofammonia that would arrest biogasproduction.

The ENER-G combined heat and powersystem provides 250kW of electricity,sufficient to power 450 homes, andprovide 200kW of heat. This renewableenergy source qualifies for financialpayments from the government’s Feed inTariff and Renewable Heat Incentive pro-grammes – providing 14 pence per kW onall power generated and 6.5 pence per kWfor the captured heat that is used on site.The farm currently uses its poultry litteras a fertiliser, but by digesting it methanelosses to the environment duringspreading are eliminated. A new poultrylitter store has been created to protectthe AD feedstock from the elements andprevent any nitrate run-off and leachinginto the soil.

Susan Shakesheff, Director of YnergyLtd, told WIP: “We are proud to be at theforefront of the move to anaerobicdigestion, and to improve oursustainability, and energy self-sufficiency,while securing a new income stream. We

are able to find a superior alternative forutilising our chicken litter and are helpingneighbouring dairy farmers to recycletheir cattle slurry.”

She comments: “We have excellentdelivery partners in ENER-G and PlanETBiogastechnik, who both provide us with amodem link to their 24/7 monitoringoperations, giving us full visibility ofsystem performance and efficiency data.The ongoing maintenance agreement withENER-G and biological support fromPlanET Biogastechnik will maximiseefficiency to achieve the fastest possiblepay back on our investment.”

Scott Tamplin, Business DevelopmentManager-AD for ENER-G Natural Power,concludes: “AD is a viable and proventechnology that is key to improving thesustainability of agriculture and helpingrural businesses to diversify. The UKgovernment claims that AD could produce7.5% of the UK’s renewable power by 2020and I would urge farmers and landownersto consider the commercial benefits,while helping to hit national targets oncarbon emission reductions.”

Poultry excrement produced on a UK farm is key to the manufacture of biogas for renewableelectricity and heat generation. This ‘green electricity’ not only powers the poultry houses and AD

system, but has a 90% surplus sold on to the National Grid, reports WIP.

GAS ENGINES

The Rolls-Royce has received its firstorder from Poland for a gas engine-powered electrical generator.

Power provider Introl SA of Katowice hasplaced an order for a single Bergen B35:406-cylinder gas engine, which will beoperated by OPEC Gdynia.

The engine will be installed in a districtheating system for the port city ofGdynia. Located in the town ofWejherowo-Nanice, just outside Gdynia,the plant is designed to provide 6.8 MW ofelectricity to the national grid and up to6MW of heat to the district heatingsystem.

The new plant will be serviced byengineers based at the newly-openedRolls-Royce Poland facility in Gdynia,ul.Kontenerowa 8.

The order represents the first sale of aRolls-Royce gas engine into the expandingPolish market and emphasises theadvantages Polish customers will gain as aresult of a new Rolls-Royce Poland servicefacility recently opened in Gdynia.

Three other Polish power facilities, atTarnów, Ostrów and Wladyslawowo, havea total of four generating sets supplied byUK packaging specialist Centrax thatutilise the Rolls-Royce 501 gas turbine.

The Bergen B gas engine sets a new

standard in low exhaust emissions anddelivers the highest possible electricaland heat recovery efficiencies withoutstanding reliability, says Rolls-Royce.

The Bergen B35:40 Gas engine meets thecriterion of the 720-750rpm class, withexceptionally low emissions of NOx, CO2,SOx and particulates.

Inside the engine, turbochargers withvariable turbine geometry (VTG) deliverprecise airflow and the solid-state ignitionwith individual cylinder timing and diag-nostics ensures optimum efficiency.

Features of the new engine include:• A compact and powerful unit;• Exceptionally low emissions of NOx,

CO2, SOx and particulates meeting IMO Tier III; • World class low-energy

consumption;• Optimum response to all

engine loads (thanks toVariable Turbo Geometry);

• Can operate as singlepropulsion engine coupled togear using gas;

• and a Super silent resilientmounting .

A spokesman for thecompany told WIP: “Bergen

lean-burn gas engines are the result ofcareful development based on over 25years experience with the highlysuccessful K-class gas engines.

“This has ensured that Bergen gasengines are particularly robust, with ahigh degree of reliability and longintervals between overhaul. The lean-burnprinciple delivers high-efficiency coupledwith reduced exhaust emissions and lowspecific energy consumption.”

Today the compact and robust Bergengas engine range is available for powersfrom 1,460 to 7,000kW.

Bergen lean-burn gas engines are said tobe the cleanest and most efficient pistonengines available today, and are classedfor both marine propulsion applicationsand power generation onshore.

Compared to diesel engines which meetIMO Tier 2 emission levels, Bergen gasengines give an emissions reduction of92% NOx, close to 23% in CO2 and virtuallyeliminate SOx and particulates, thusalready meeting IMO Tier 3 requirementswhich will come into force from 2016.

GEN-SETS

UK-based Dieselec ThistleGenerators has recently deliveredits largest standby generator order

since the company was created last yearwith the acquisition of Thistle Generatorsby rival firm Dieselec.

Now operating from a new head office inGlasgow and a new workshop/ officefacility in London supporting the projectsin the South East of England, the companyis Scotland’s largest distributor of F GWilson generator sets and a leadingspecialist in large standby dieselgenerators.

Its most recent project – and its largestto date – was a £3 million+ order for four11kV, 2.2mVA diesel gensets to a majorfinancial institution in central London.

The generators will provide emergencypower for the client’s data centre,located in the heart of the City’s financialdistrict , in the event of a mains failure orother interruption to the mains supply.

Data centres – along with hospitals,supermarkets and other major powerusers who rely on a continuous electricalsupply – are important customers forDieselec Thistle Generators.

Diesel gen-sets destinedfor London finance sector

“Data centres store huge amounts ofvery valuable and sensitive information,”Pedro Araujo, solutions director withDieselec Thistle Generators, tells WIP.“They require extreme resilience in theirpower infrastructure because if they losepower they can lose millions of pounds inminutes,” he points out.

“They’re quite happy to spend £3 - 4million to ensure this doesn’t happen,” headds.

Data centres also require far higherlevels of power than most comparablebuildings – often having power densitiesmore than 100 times that of a similar-sized office building. Much of the power isrequired to run the cooling plant which isessential to prevent the computer systemsoverheating.

Working closely with main contractorSkanska Rashleigh Weatherfoil, DieselecThistle Generators assembled the fourgenerators and, in June 2011, subjectedthem to a continuous load test 48 hours atthe company’s 6.5 acre site in Milngavie,Glasgow.

This was the largest and mostdemanding witnessed test carried out bythe company to date and was monitoredby representatives of SRW and the client

throughout the process. Conducted over aperiod of four days, the test requiredeach generator to be run at full load for acontinuous eight hours while itsperformance was monitored andrecorded.

Once each generator had been testedindividually, the four units were thensynchronised and run together for anothereight hours to deliver a consistent 6mVaof power (N+1). This rigorous testprocedure was essential to demonstratethat the generators, once installed intheir central London location, will becapable of delivering consistent, reliablepower to maintain the servers andancillary equipment. Each generating setcomprises an 11kV Leroy Somer alternatordriven by a 16 cylinder Perkins dieselengine. However the test also requiredsubstantial temporary equipmentincluding a system of silencers andexhaust flues, 6mVA of reactive loadbanks to simulate the working load,neutral earth resistors and a five-section11kV containerised synchronised switch-board built especially for the test.

Aalborg Energie Technik specialises inthe design, supply and maintenanceof biomass boilers for plants

throughout Europe. Established inDenmark in 1996, the company isheadquartered in the city of Aalborg andits current product portfolio is furthersupported by a wide range of consultancyservices relating to biomass-fired CHPplants in both the manufacturing andenergy sectors.

Hans Erik Askou, one of Aalborg EnergieTechnik’s three founding members,presides over the company’s operations asthe CEO.

He tells WIP: “My two colleagues andmyself all had backgrounds in the boilerindustry, and we worked together for thesame company for several years beforeleaving to form our own. We saw thatthere was a bright future in the field ofbiomass renewable energy and so our aimwas to lead the industry by breaking awayand developing as a company on our own.“In our 14 years of operations, we haveexpanded from just three employees to 75and we have been able to develop a lot ofexpertise in the biomass energy sector.”

Today, Aalborg Energie Technik’s teamsconduct inspections and evaluations ofboilers, combustion systems and powerplants, making calculations in both

environmental and energy engineering. In addition to the repair and rebuilding

of boilers and auxiliary equipment, thecompany also assists companies who wishto convert their coal-fired plants intobiomass plants. Aalborg Energie Technikalso provides technical services toupgrade, revise and modernise anyelectrical or control systems, includingthe supply of new and completely screen-based modules with PLC technology.

Aalborg Energie Technik has worked withmany companies across Europe, andamongst its most recent clients is the UK-based Western Wood Energy Plant,situated in Wales.

Operating as a biomass-fired facility, thisplant has an annual fuel heat input of160,000 tonnes of forestry wood and cleanresidues from wood processing. TheWestern Wood Energy Plant wascompleted in 2008, and Aalborg EnergieTechnik acted as a turnkey supplier,designing, constructing and commissioningthe facilities key parts.

Hans Erik reflects on the successes ofthe project: “The plant has a very highboiler efficiency. Over a six-month periodin 2009, we ran a test to determine theavailability levels of the plant to see howmany hours a year it runs at full output -

and we discovered that it operates at99.3% availability.”

In the aftermath of the financial crisis,Aalborg Energie Technik continues to pressforward with various projects, and thecompany is always looking to forge newcontracts with clients. Hans Erik explains:“There is no denying that the situationhas been difficult in previous years, and ithad certainly become very difficult toobtain the sort of finance that weneeded. The same was happening withproject developers, and our own sub-sup-pliers had to raise their costs. Even whenwe were operating at 75% capacity,however, we still managed to retain all ofour staff and now everything is starting tolook up again.”

He concludes: “We have managed tosecure a couple of key contracts – one inFrance and one in Italy; and we believethat these will help us progress smoothly.Our next goal will be to look for morecontracts across the continent, with afocus on both France and the UK. Iexpect a substantial growth in turnoverand employees will occur over the next 2- 5 years as we grow.”

ALTERNATORS

As part of the LSA 40 line of high-performance alternators, Leroy-Somer's Electric Power Generation

division presents LSA 42.3, a new productin its Partner low voltage range, designedto meet the needs of both manufacturersand users of generators.

LSA 42.3 is a 4-pole three-phasealternator which offers the followingrange of power ratings to complementthose of the LSA 40:

- 50 Hz - 1500 rpm: 25 to 60 kVA- 60 Hz – 1800 rpm: 25 to 60 kWAs with LSA 40, LSA 42.3 is also available

in a dedicated single-phase version. LSA42.3 comes with three field excitationversions, to suit customer requirements:

- Shunt (high starting capacity)- AREP (high starting capacity + short-

circuit capacity)- PMG (equivalent system to AREP)Available in a single-bearing or two-

bearing version, the LSA 42.3 is said to bea particularly versatile alternator which ismechanically suitable for most engines onthe market. It is also interchangeablewith alternators from the previous Partnerrange.

As with LSA 40, compactness is one ofthe strong points of LSA 42.3: despitebeing the same size as the previousmodel, LSA 42.3 gives you increasedpower along with high efficiency levels,reports the manufacturer. This power andefficiency combined mean that you saveenergy, says Leroy-Somer.

According to the company, the lowreactance of these new products givesthem a high capacity for starting electricmotors and the ability to withstanddisturbance from distorting loads.

Pure Energy generation alternators arealso very easy to install. As such, for LSA

42.3, a cap has been added to the

terminal box originally designed for LSA40, to ease the access to the AVR.

A spokesman for the company told WIP:“With this new unit Leroy-Somer EPG hasdeveloped a robust, high-quality rangewhich meets international standards andis perfectly suited to the most complexand restrictive applications used in thetelecoms, construction, residential,commercial, micro- CHP, agricultural andeven marine sectors.

“With its high electric capacity, compactdimensions, and tailored excitation,control and protection systems, LSA 42.3is pushing the boundaries of performancein the industrial power generationindustry,” he said.

Leroy-Somer is one of the world’s

leading manufacturers in electro-mechanical and electronic drive systemsand the world leader in industrialalternators. Part of the Emerson Group,Leroy-Somer is a French company whichemploys 9,200 people in 38 productionunits and 470 sales and service outletsworldwide. In 2010, the companyachieved a turnover of €973 million.

Leroy-Somer’s EPG (Electric PowerGeneration) division is the world leader inlow, medium and high voltage alternators,with the most extensive range (between 1and 20 MW) on the market and productssuitable for a variety applications.

GEN-SETS

Hurricane Irene was a large andpowerful Atlantic hurricane whichleft extensive flood and wind

damage along its path through theCaribbean, the United States East Coastand as far north as Atlantic Canada inAugust 2011.

The hurricane quickly strengthened intoa Category 3 major hurricane whilepassing through The Bahamas, leavingbehind a trail of extensive structural dam-age in its wake.

Considerable damage occurred in east-ern upstate New York and Vermont, whichsuffered from the worst flooding in cen-turies. Throughout its path, Irene causedwidespread destruction and at least 55deaths; monetary losses in the Caribbeanwere estimated to be as high as US$3.1billion.

Early damage estimates throughout theUnited States range from US$10 to US$15billion. The power grid was one of theearly casualties of the storm.

The Cat® Rental Power Dealer Networkwas one of the first private companies tohelp in the aftermath of Hurricane Irene.With nearly 5 million households andthousands of businesses without poweralong the East Coast there was an obviousdemand for portable gen-sets. The Dealer

Hurricane Irene & the Cat®Rental Power Dealer Network

Network was able to mobilise over500MWs of temporary power to restoreelectricity to hundreds of locations whereelectricity supplies had failed.

A spokesman told WIP: “The seamlessintegration and movement of equipmentfrom across the United States and Canadaprovided many facilities with power bothbefore and after the storms had passed.“Over 1,000 generators and 100 miles ofcabling were installed to turn the lightsback on for those left in the dark.”William J. Rohner, vice president ofCaterpillar's Electric Power Division, toldWIP: "Hurricane Irene will have a lastingimpact for years to come. Cat® Dealersacross North America began developing

contingency plansand movingequipment andmanpower intoplace long beforethe first rains evenreached the EastCoast.”

Many businessesand Caterpillarmajor accountswere proactivelyengaged in

contingency planning with their local CatDealers long before the storms arrivedand had equipment installed inpreparation that allowed them to main-tain business continuity throughout.

Cat® recently supplied emergency powercapacity to one independent powerproducer linked to the 345-kV grid in thestate of Texas - Guadalupe Power - part ofthe Texas Independent Energy fleet.When the Marion, Texas plant’s substationrequired maintenance, David Harrill, I&Etechnician, turned to Cat Rental Power.

“Even when the plant goes offline, it’snecessary for several MW of power to beflowing to the plant,” says Harrill.

The plant requires electro-hydraulicmotors to keep the four dry, low-NOx gasturbines and two steam turbines turningat low speed to prevent the generatorshafts from bending under the weight ofthe compressor fans. Ultimately, CatDealer Holt Power Systems provided threeCat XQ2000 Power Modules provided up to6 MW of temporary power to theGuadalupe Power Plant during thescheduled substation maintenance.

HEAT EXCHANGERS

CHP enables anyone with areciprocating engine poweredGenset to provide heat and power

from a single fuel source, but what if youcan’t use the hot water it produces?

The heating element of CHP is notalways required due to local climaticconditions. Electricity however is alwaysin demand and meeting that need hasalready started to create major energysupply problems.

In its latest Outlook for Energy report,the Exxon Mobil Corporation predictedglobal electricity demand will rise bymore than 80% through 2030 – led by non-OECD nations, where demand will be upmore than 150%. So, how can the heatrecovery potential of CHP address theissue of generating more electrical power?

“In an ideal situation, there would be away to take the waste heat from exhaustgases or industrial processes and use thisfree energy by-product to produce moreelectricity,” comments Kevin Howell,Business Development Manager of EJBowman. “The good news is that thisscenario is becoming a reality and offersenormous potential benefits to energyusers.”

Bowman is in the process of developingstrategic partnerships with leadingrenewable energy specialists, developingits exhaust gas heat exchangers to work inconjunction ORC (Organic Rankine Cycle)turbine generator systems.

ORC turbine systems can be set up torun on waste heat from a variety ofdifferent sources, to create cost effectivesolutions for generating electricity.However, vital to the efficient perform-ance of the system is efficient heatexchanger technology.

Although ORC is relatively new, it isreceiving unprecedented interest due to

More power, same energy -all thanks to ORC technology

the additionalelectricity that can begenerated with noextra fuel input costs.Several companieshave now fullyproductionalised ORCequipment, bringing itwithin the reach ofthousands of smallerscale processes wherewaste heat is producedas a by-product.

“There are a numberof manufacturers whoare developing their ownsolutions via differing technologicalavenues,” comments Kevin Howell.

“With the ORC system becomingavailable in greater volume and thereforeat lower cost, we believe a significantopportunity exists for many industrial andcommercial customers to benefit fromboth lower energy costs and greatercontrol over their electricity supply.

An ORC turbine process increases energyefficiency significantly for the sameamount of fuel. This ‘free’ electricity canbe used to power site equipment, reduceenergy costs or gain independence fromthe grid or sell to it.

The advantage over solar and windpower is that ORC is predictable andmeasurable, enabling users to calculatethe exact payback from their system.

An ORC Turbine Generator (OrganicRankine Cycle) is a closed cycle electricalpower generation system driven by anexternal heat source. No internalcombustion is needed; instead the ORCgenerator uses an organic working fluidwith a lower boiling point than water togenerate electrical power. ‘Organic’ is achemical term for the refrigerant type

fluids commonly used in the closed cycle.One of the processes uses waste heat

from the exhaust gas to heat thermal oil,the energy from the oil is then transferredto a refrigerant or used to generate steamwhich is then used to drive a smallturbine, which in turn drives a secondaryalternator and the result is moreelectrical power,

“Historically, if the waste energy fromthe Gensets could not be utilised in a hotwater circuit there wasn’t any need forCHP,” says Kevin Howell.

“Now using ORC this waste heat can beutilised to generate additional electricaloutput - the reason the Gensets areinstalled in the first place - with no extrafuel consumption or cost,” he said.

“At Bowman, we believe that utilisingwaste heat to power ORC systems willradically change the power generationindustry and we are delighted to provideheat exchangers that make the processpossible.”

More power for the same energy has always seemed a Holy Grail. Now, with the use of heatexchangers from specialists EJ Bowman, ORC technology can provide a high-efficiency solution to

turn waste heat into electricity. WIP has the story.

SILENCERS

Vibro-Acoustics’ silencers haveproved their worth at a data centerlocated in Southwestern Ontario,

reports the company. The facility is a high-level security build-

ing which stores volumes of importantrecords. To maintain the vast amount ofinformation, the 220,000 ft2 building usesan integrated emergency backup powersystem.

The system consists of 12 dieselgenerators, which can provide a total of2,030,400 KW of electrical energy, andtwo load cells for generator exercising. Tocool the generators, a series of 12propeller fans have been installed into a40,000 ft3 air intake plenum. These fanscan move over 1,139,873 CFM of airthrough the generator room.

The sound pressure level created by thecombination of the generators andpropeller fans is around 120 dBA (highenough to damage the unprotected humanear). A substantial amount of insertionloss (IL) was required to meet the noisecriteria (local code, NPC-205) of 50 dBA

Silencers in a data centrereduce the risk of ear damage

(day) and 45 dBA (night) at the closestproperty line, which is 150 ft from thegenerator room. In addition, the staticpressure loss through the silencers had tobe kept very low in order to keep the sizeof the fan motors to a minimum.

Lastly, vibration travelling through theexhaust mufflers and into the roofstructure had to be addressed. Themufflers, manufactured with stainlesssteel, expand and contract as thegenerators turn on-and-off.Vibro-Acoustics has provided over 285silencer solutions and 280 vibrationisolation systems for the data centre,meeting the required noise criteria in theoccupied space and at the neighbouringproperty lines. Vibro-Acoustics used theSystems Approach early in the designphase to complete a full vibration andacoustical analysis of the project. Theintegrated noise control solution, whichresulted in a pressure loss of only 0.15”wg and a dBA level lower than the localcode requirement of 45 dBA, helpedreduce the building’s operating costs.

For the two load cells located in thegenerator room, Vibro-Acoustics providedFit-The-System silencers on the cells fornoise attenuation. Forty-eight vibration

isolation systems were supplied for thegenerator sets.

SNSN neoprene pads were provided todampen the vibration traveling throughthe transmission lines. For the air intakesystem, 12 large dissipative rectangularsilencers were provided, with a pressuredrop of only 0.08” wg. Each silencer wasdesigned for medium velocity airmovement at a total flow of 110,000 CFM.Finally, for the discharge air system,Vibro-Acoustics provided 12 dissipativerectangular silencers with a pressure dropof 0.068” wg at 95,000 CFM.

BOILERS

Ambitermo thermal fluid boilers havebeen designed to meet the needs ofthe power industry where extreme

temperatures of up to 350ºC may often berequired.

Ambitermo’s boilers are said to offercomplete operational safety, optimisedefficiency, robustness, reliability andsimplicity.

According to the company, the use ofthermal fluid, commonly known asthermo-fluid, as a substitute for watersteam or superheated water, providesgreat advantages. For example:

* High temperatures of up to 350ºC canbe reached at atmospheric pressure andwith +- 1ºC precision in adjustment oftemperature;

* It requires only an easy setup andsmall locking devices make it veryversatile for fluid and/or viscous fuelsstorage plants, as well as for pipelinedocking, amongst others.

Using thermal fluid means there is noneed for sophisticated water treatment asrequired for steam treatment. Thetechnology also means easy automationfor far-away installations.

Thermal fluids offer great usage flexibil-ity for the onsite production of steamand/or hot or superheated water. Theycan also be easily be used for drying

Boilers, thermo-fluids& filters for the energy sector

various products produced by industries. The Ambitermo boilers can be designed

to be used with the following fuels: * Liquid (thick fuel, fuel-oil or others); * Gas(natural gas, LPG, biogas, unrefined

gases and others); * Biomass (woodchips, grape debris and

olive bagasse); * Forestry biomass; * Cork powder and waste. Ambitermo currently builds two boiler

models - these include horizontal TF/HBoilers, standardised up to 8000kW.

However, the company says it canproduce boilers with greater powerwhenever required by the client.

Ambitermo also produces Silex sandfilters which are used to remove particlesin suspension.

These Silex filters come in differentparticle sizes and these filters usuallyconsist of versions which can deal withvarious layers and particle sizes.

The filters guarantee high efficiency forthe system, reports Ambitermo. Agranulated filter - the AG FILTER - is alsoavailable with the Silex range for theefficient removal of particles from water.

Ambitermo also designs fuel containersin monoblock, horizontal or vertical tanksmanufactured in different sizes at theplant, from 5 to 100 m3. The companydesigns and produces complete storageplants with truck loading and unloadingfacilities and fire protection incompliance with NPFA standards.

EMISSIONS

Today, emissions regulations varyfrom country-to-country. But it isacknowledged that working towards

harmonised global standards will not onlysimplify the choice of cost-efficient powersystems for manufacturers and customers,but also minimise the impact on air quali-ty.

Allowable emissions set by the EU andU.S. are set out as Tiers 1-4 in the U.S.and Stages I-IIIA in the EU. Each increasingTier or Stage specifies lesser amounts ofNOx, HC, CO and PM based on the numberof grams per kilowatt-hour of thecompounds present in diesel exhaust.

To meet the 2011 target - for NOx andPM levels to have dropped 98% belowunregulated levels - requires a phase on-phase emissions reduction of around 40%.

Whilst in the U.S. both nonroad(portable diesel generator sets and otherindustrial engines) and stationaryapplications (generator sets used primarilyfor peak shaving, load shedding andstandby power) are regulated, the EU(with the exception of Germany's TA Luftand France's Directive 2910) regulatesonly nonroad applications.

Taking into account the broad powerrange of nonroad diesel engines (and thefact that in the EU, only those producing18 kWm to 560 kWm are regulated),emissions standards for this class arephased in by power categories, forexample:

100-174 hp (75-130 kWm)

Emissions reductions -a realistic look 5 years ahead

174-750 hp (130-560 kWm)Under existing legislation (TA Luft and

Directive 2910) limits for stationaryapplications within Europe apply toapplications above the following:

1 MW (thermal) in Germany2 MW (thermal) in FranceStandby applications (in use <500

hours/year in France and <300 hours/yearin Germany) also benefit from lessstringent requirements as Germany's TALuft mainly controls NOx and PM, whileFrance's Directive 2910 controls emissionsof NOx, CO, SO2, non methane organic-compounds (NMOC) and PM.For continuous or prime power applica-tions, TA Luft also regulates NOx and COemissions according to application size,whilst Directive 2910 limits NOx to 1500mg/m3. Variations of these two rules alsoapply in Austria, Switzerland, Belgium andLuxembourg.

In China legislation exists for all nonroadengines up to 560 kWm. Within this

classification, mobile generator setspowered by 37 kWm - 560 kWm engineshave, since 2007, had to comply withChina Tier I, and from 2009, dieselgenerator sets powered by engines 18kWm - 560 kWm will have to comply withChina Tier II.

India’s Regulations are currently dividedinto two categories - engines below 800kWm and engines above this figure.Engines smaller than 19 kWm must complywith U.S. Tier 1. The next level of regula-tions, based on EU Stage II, came intoeffect this year (2011).

Japan does not regulate emissions fromvery small or very large engines. Currentpermissible levels (with some exceptions)are similar to EU Stage I and the U.S. EPATier 1.

In Singapore off-highway diesel engines(including portable generators) must meeteither EU Stage I or U.S. Tier 1.

As yet, Mexico, Argentina and Brazilhave no controls on nonroad powergeneration engines, although localauthorities may institute emissionsregulations if warranted by air quality.Chile is adopting its own version of the TALuft standard, for example.

Cummins Power Generation has, through in-cylinder design improvements and precise control ofthe combustion process, developed technologies that reduce the primary pollutants in diesel generatorset exhausts by approximately 80%. Here, Cummins’ experts reports on the emissions situation.

NOISE REDUCTION

Over the past several years, therehas been a significantimprovement in the range and

variety of materials available to meetacoustic, thermal and other gen-setenclosure design requirements.

Many of these new material compositesprovide significantly more integrated,cost-effective solutions to meet or exceedmarket requirements for acoustic,thermal, water resistance and durability,among other design factors.

E-A-R Specialty Composites has devel-oped a systems approach to engineernoise control solutions that meet therequirements of today’s standby powergenerators.

The noise spectra for power generatorsvaries widely, but the noise sources aretypically the same. Those noise sourcesare engine noise, engine exhaust, turbu-lent airflow and blade passage associatedwith cooling fans, and alternator noise.The noise spectrum of each component isdependent on geometry, output powerand load conditions.

There are numerous considerations inenclosure design beyond noise levels, such

Improved noisereduction in gen-sets

as airflow requirements,exhaust requirements, siterequirements and weatherprotection requirements.Eliminating enclosure openingscan be detrimental to coolingthe generator. This difficulty isexacerbated by recent trendstoward smaller profile gen-sets that have resulted innoise control materials beingexposed to a range of highergenerator temperatures.

The resulting heat issues can make ther-mal management one of the dominantdesign considerations in the ultimate solu-tion package.

Typically there are two main methodsfor controlling the airborne noise in apower generator: blocking airborne noisevia a weighted barrier or absorbingairborne noise via acoustical absorbinginsulation.

Power generator equipmentmanufacturers can achieve significantnoise control by lining the generator’ssheet metal enclosure with a weightedbarrier or a decoupled weighted barrier

(composite of barrierover decoupling foam).

Ideally, at least 90% ofthe enclosure should belined. For optimaleffect the enclosureopenings must beminimised.

Further improvementsin transmission loss canbe achieved by adding adecoupler between theweighted barrier andsubstrate, i.e. theenclosure wall.

Decoupled barriers

typically comprise acoustical foam sand-wiched between the inner surface of apower generator enclosure and weightedbarrier.

The substrate-foam-barrier (double-wall)construction acts like a spring-masssystem, in which the composite hasincreased transmission loss above theresonant frequency or double wallfrequency of the composite, as seen inFigure 2 [above right].

He said: “We couldn’t be more pleasedto move forward with PG&E and FirstSolar on our third and largest solarproject in Nevada, which will deliver a

new supply of clean power to Californiaconsumers.”

Construction on the 1,100-acre solarplant is expected to begin in early 2012.Copper Mountain Solar 2 will produceenough zero-emission electricity to powerabout 45,000 homes when fullydeveloped.

The combination of First Solar’sadvanced thin film PV modules with ourindustry leading EPC capabilities enablesus to rapidly deploy utility-scale solutionslike Copper Mountain Solar 2, bringingdown the cost of renewable energy,” saidJim Lamon, First Solar senior vicepresident of EPC, Operations andMaintenance. “We’re pleased to beworking with Sempra and PG&E again.”

Sempra Generation and First Solar hadpreviously teamed-up on the constructionof two other large-scale solar projects inNevada, including Copper Mountain Solar.The 48-MW installation was completed inlate 2010 and is currently the largestPV/solar power plant in the US. PG&E iscurrently delivering the power producedat the plant to its customers.

UPS SYSTEMS

Today’s data centres have a widevariety of needs, reports RobinKoffler. There is a need to markedly

reduce energy consumption in datacentres, plus decrease costs overall,increase floor space available forrevenue-earning servers and protect vitalpower supplies, have all combined tostimulate interest in flywheel UPS(uninterruptible power supply) technology.

A flywheel is a rotating device used tostore energy, which can be harnessed tosupply electricity to critical equipment inthe event of a mains power failure.Flywheels have far greater environmentalcredentials than UPS batteries.

Data centres have always been bigenergy users. Energy consumption of theUSA’s data centres accounts for around 2%of the country’s annual total usage.Traditionally, they were not designed tobe energy efficient but to pack as muchprocessing power into as little space, andat as low a cost, as possible.

In 2007, the Green Grid (an associationof IT professionals focused on raisingenergy efficiency in data centres) intro-

Flywheel UPS - major advantagesfor today’s data centre environments

duced the concept of PowerUsage Effectiveness (PUE)and its reciprocal DataCentre Efficiency (DCE).

PUE is the ratio of totalpower used by a data centrecompared to the power usedto run the IT equipment. APUE of 2.0, for example,means that for every kWh ofpower used by IT equipment,another kWh is needed torun the data centreinfrastructure.

Both metrics enable data centre opera-tors to estimate energy efficiency andcompare the results against other datacentres. DCE has since been redefined asDCiE (data centre infrastructureefficiency).

Since its introduction, PUE has becomethe badge of choice for energy-efficientdata centres and some of the world’slargest have been extremely vocal aboutthe energy efficiency measuresimplemented and resultant reduction inPUE rating.

The objective has been to try andbe the first to achieve the lowest PUEscore, and therefore, the highestefficiency possible.

Riello’s own research concludes thatUPS can use as much as 18-20% of thetotal energy consumed by a datacentre. The company has introduceda flywheel-based UPS product inpartnership with Vycon Energy.

The Master MHF VDC 100-500kVAFlywheel UPS has been designedspecifically for application withincritical environments such as datacentres, hospitals and large industrialinstallations. It is a scaleable system,incorporating a VDC or VDC-XE

flywheel and offers customers the lowestpossible PUE ratios and highestoperational resilience. It requires 50% lessfloor space than a similarly-rated,traditional UPS and batteries.

The Master VDC series of UPS flywheelsstores kinetic energy in the form of arotating mass (spinning at 36,000revolutions per minute) within a securelysealed container.

Riello’s technology incorporatesaerospace-grade steel, a high-speedpermanent magnet motor generator andcontact-free magnetic bearings whichlevitate and sustain the rotor duringoperation.

For ease-of-use, it also has a touch-screen control system which providescontrollability and vital information onsystem performance.

Unlike Sealed Lead Acid UPS batteries,flywheels are not temperature-sensitiveand this is one major advantage for datacentre environments, which makesflywheels an ideal alternative to UPSbatteries for data centres witheco-ambitions.

www.riello.comInternet linkInternet link

Robin Koffler, general manager, Riello UPS explains how flywheel UPS is helping torevolutionise power protection and the ‘greening of the data centre’. Flywheels are not

temperature-sensitive and this is one major advantage for today’s data centre environments.

UPS TECHNOLOGY

For 16 years Colt now has successfullyrun a separate business division -Colt Data Centre Services- which

owns and operates 19 major data centresacross Europe, as well as delivering datacentre space to thousands of business cus-tomers.

Akber Jaffer, general manager at ColtData Centre Services, commented on whyhe feels high specification modular datacentres are key to the data centreindustry’s future:

“Our large-scale data centre halls aremanufactured in approved locations usingthe latest production line techniquesgeared to providing the highest qualityand high specification data centre halls.Everything is built in-house, using industryleading modular components, beforebeing delivered to site in transportablemodules for easy reconstruction.”

He comments: “All of this means we areable to cut the time it takes to design andbuild-out a conventional bespoke datacentre by more than two thirds, and candeliver to our customers a completefacility with upwards of 500m2 of datacentre space in less than four months,with guaranteed quality and minimaldisruption to the site. Compare this toany other system and you can really seewhy this area of the market is witnessingsuch strong demand.”

Colt Data Centre Servicesfinds complete modular protection

Colt Data Centre Services believes areliable modular hall solution enablesits customers to meet almost all oftheir data centre challenges, usingfacilities which are fully built andstaged before they are transported toa client’s site.

When it came to selecting its UPSpartner, Colt DCS had an exacting listof requirements, including class-leading efficiency and lowest TCO, aswell as a need for a small footprint tooptimise its modular design.

Neil Ashdown, Chief InfrastructureArchitect at Colt DCS picks up the story:“The initial tender process for a UPSsupplier saw a few organisations stand outwith the capabilities and product range tosupport the project, but eventually wechose UPSL because of its ability to meetour requirements in every area.”

He comments: “All the products UPSLoffered were highly energy-efficient,three-phase UPS systems, with low TCO.We saw these as key considerations forour clients, who need to know the systemthey are buying into is affordable in thelong-term and that ongoing maintenancecosts are reasonable”.

Each of Colt DCS’s modules isconstructed to deliver class-leading levelsof resilience, at a standard tiering level ofTier 3 overall and Tier 4 for the powerinfrastructure.

This provides a high degree ofredundancy throughout the facility, whichextends to the chosen UPS system. Eachof the initial 12 modules will featurethree integrated UPS units, designed tosupport the critical load and themechanical load. Each configuration usestwo UPSL PowerWAVE 6000s, with a loadcapacity of 80KVA, working in an N + Nredundant formation.

The third UPS is the smaller PowerWAVE5000T, also from UPSL, which supports themechanical load. The PowerWave6000three-phase UPS was chosen by Colt forits transformerless design and energysaving inverter switching (ESIS)technology, which delivers best-in-classperformance & efficiency.

In line with Colt’s requirement for amaximum load of 80KVA per module, thePowerWave6000 has a capacity of 60KVAto 200KVA, parallelable up to 2MVA.

The system also features exceptionallyhigh operating efficiency – offering 95.5%efficiency from a load of 25% or higher,further reducing power consumption.

Neil Ashdown at Colt DCS concludes:“One of the reasons we went with theUPS system from UPSLwas the fact thatthe chosen products are highly-efficientand have a very flat efficiency curvewhen the load is above 25%, which italways will be, which means the UPS isn’twasting energy. The PowerWAVE 6000 alsohas a very small heat build-up, which isimportant due to the confined space inwhich the UPS is housed”.

When Colt Data Centre Services decided to be among the first to manufacture the nextgeneration of modular data centres it turned to Uninterruptible Power Supplies Limited

(UPSL), a Kohler company, to provide its modular power protection, reports WIP.

PM7000 gets revision of firmware from OutramOutram Research Ltd has announced a new revision of firmware forits PM7000 power quality analyser, Waveform Capture Extension,which allows capture of long-duration transients and waveformevents. The new feature is designed to help engineers troubleshootlong-duration problems and to see the consequential impact ofdisturbances. Whilst most transients and waveform events are over inless than three or four cycles, occasionally it is useful to capturelonger periods. Examples include monitoring the network’s recoveryfrom sag after reclosures, or to view the reaction of downstreamcontrol systems such as wind turbine control. The Waveform CaptureExtension allows for selective extension of the capture windowbeyond the 160ms that was previously possible, enabling recordingfor up to 60 seconds. Extensions of the different capture triggers canbe set individually, enabling complete control over the monitoring ofthe disturbances that are recorded for the longer period. The PM7000

can automatically terminate recordingwhen the Sag/Surge is over tooptimise the use of the availablestorage. Waveforms recorded by theExtended Waveform Capture featurecan be displayed and analysed inPronto, Outram’s logger controlsoftware which will also manage thedata. www.outramresearch.co.uk
