“Best-In-Class Technologies”

This Presentation provides you with additional Insight and Background Information regarding Biogas CHP Cogeneration Technologies. Significant Advancements have been made during the past 20 Years.

Europe started to actively implement Anaerobic Digestion, Biogas Plants, and CHP Cogeneration Technologies in the early 90’s,… 20 Years ago. At that Time there were approximately 200 Biogas Plant Facilities installed in Central Europe, mainly in Germany. That’s roughly the same Number of Agricultural and Dairy Farm Digesters operational in the United States today.

In the meantime Europe installed more than 16,000 Anaerobic Digesters and Biogas CHP Plants. 60% are located in Germany. It is expected that by 2015 more than 30,000 Biogas Plants will be operational all over Europe.

Introduction Introduction

Here in the U.S., many Anaerobic Digester Designers, Engineering Companies, Project Developers, and Builders made great Progress in advancing their Biogas Production Technologies. While those Improvements and Advancements are ongoing, it appears that not very much has changed in Reference to Product Development in the Biogas CHP Cogeneration Sector.

By analyzing Product Offerings of mainly domestic Companies active in the Biogas CHP Market, and carefully looking at most Installations completed during the past few Years, it becomes evident that the Biogas CHP Technology applied in the U.S. for most Anaerobic Digester Projects is very similar to what happened in Europe approximately 20 Years ago. Especially in the System Range of 100 ekW up to 1,000 ekW.

Potential Customers and many Biogas Project Developers are frequently Potential Customers and many Biogas Project Developers are frequently asking what makes European Biogas CHP Cogeneration Technologies asking what makes European Biogas CHP Cogeneration Technologies different, and why those Products are so much more advanced, and what different, and why those Products are so much more advanced, and what Benefits as well as added Values can be expected.Benefits as well as added Values can be expected.

Introduction Introduction

Page 4: Biogas CHP  -  Details make the Difference - 2G Best-in-Class

By looking at most Biogas Plants installed and commissioned in the U.S. during the past few Years, we noticed that the CHP Technology applied ranges from imported and modern Systems to ancient and antiquated Technologies. One Company specializes to offer used reconditioned Gas Engines (Gensets), designed in the 60’s and actually manufactured in the 70’s. Because such 40 Year old Gensets are very cheap, many Operators decided to use such inefficient and outdated Technologies, not realizing how much Money they are losing and how negative this impacts their Bottom Line.

Other Systems offered and regularly installed throughout North Other Systems offered and regularly installed throughout North America are individual “custom packaged” CHP Units, very similar to America are individual “custom packaged” CHP Units, very similar to Technologies European Biogas Plant Operators utilized in the 80’s Technologies European Biogas Plant Operators utilized in the 80’s and early 90’s.and early 90’s.

Trial & Error Phase

European Biogas Project Developers and Manufacturers of CHP Cogeneration Systems went through a “Trial & Error” Learning Phase in the late 80’s and early 90’s. Thereafter Technologies became much more efficient and reliable.

Most gas engine manufacturers are specifying H2H and siloxane levels in fuel gases fed to their engines. Despite having gas treatment systems installed, moderate damage has also been experienced at low concentrations of those chemical compounds. As deposits accumulate, the engines efficiency is significantly reduced. Unburned fuel contaminates the exhaust gas increasing emissions. Many engine suppliers "de-rate” their gas engines in biogas configuration to reduce output and to prevent significant engine damage.

Service & maintenance cost are high, and very often severe damage occurs to valves, pistons, piston rings, liners, cylinder heads, spark plugs and turbochargers, necessitating premature servicing, costly repairs, and frequent major overhauls.

Traditionally in the U.S., gas generators that run on biogas are adapted internal combustion engines not specifically designed for biogas. Microturbines have less moving parts, but have shown serious problems if the gas is not prepared by using excessive, comprehensive and expensive gas purification systems, over and above what internal combustion engines would require. Generally the elevated cost outweighs the advantages of micro turbines. Also, turbines have extreme low efficiencies. In biogas configuration they hardly reach more than around 24%.

Here is a Comparison. Engine Optimization and higher Efficiencies have a significant andpositive Impact on the Bottom Line.

In the 350 to 400ekW Range, 2G CHP Systems generate up to 18.6% more Revenue and in only 10 Years add US$ 624,000.00 additional Revenue to the Bottom Line.

In the 220 to 265ekW Range, 2G CHP Systems generate up to 24.9% more Revenue and in only 10 Years add US$ 335,400.00 additional Revenue to the Bottom Line.

2G CHP Engines are designed for a higher Utilization. Most manufacturers define 8000 Hours per Year and require 760 Hours (31.6 Days) for Service & Maintenance. Our Engines don’t require more than 460 Hrs (19.1 Days) for S&M Downtime. Biogas Optimization on 2G Standard Engines, and the patented 2G-Drive® Technology result in significant Efficiency Improvement, independently tested and Third Party verified. *Feed-In-Tariff based on Example State of Oregon.
