DECENTRALIZED ENERGY SYSTEMS OFFER MULTIPLE BENEFITS
ENJOY THE CLIMATE INSIDE AND OUT
Wrtsils ongoing development of
decentralized power plant solutions is based
on demands for alternative energy sources, the
need to shorten transmission distances, and
increasing stipulations for fuel efficiency. With
deregulation and liberalisation of the energy
markets on the increase everywhere, the trend
is towards decentralized systems. Power, heat
and chilling are generated close to consumers,
thus shortening transmission routes via cables
and pipes.
Wrtsil technologies are meeting the needs
of an energy hungry world in a versatile and
environmentally sustainable way. Its Combined
Heat & Power (CHP) and District Heating
& Cooling (DHC) systems are supplied to
utilities, independent power producers (IPP),
industries and municipalities around the globe.
Typical plant sizes are 4-100 MWe and up to
175 MWch/50000 TR chilling in single or multi-
engine configurations.
The combination of high efficiency and low
emission power plants built by Wrtsil is
unequalled on the market. Wrtsil plants
comply with national and local environmental
requirements and with World Bank guidelines
for power plants.
Cogeneration is a closed process in which
rejected heat from engines is made useful,
either as heat or chilling, and taken into
profitable use. Engine driven cogeneration
plants, with their unbeatable electrical
efficiency and high total efficiency throughout
the load range, have very low CO2 emissions
per sellable energy unit.
Wrtsil CHP plants can run on various
grades of natural gas and liquid fuels, while still
maintaining low emissions and high efficiency.
The plants include thermal heat recovery for
hot water, steam, direct-fire, or chilled water
thereby increasing the already high efficiency
of 4345% in terms of net electricity, to a total
plant efficiency of 90% or more.

4CHP plants, where waste heat is used for
heating purposes, have been built since the
end of the 19th century, in Europe as well as
in North America. Similarly, district heating
systems are a well established infrastructure
technology. However, for warmer countries with
a short yearly demand of heat and very high
summer temperatures, chilling generation is
more difficult.
The prime objective with the Wrtsil
concept is to save primary fuel and to use it
as efficiently as possible, for the sake of the
environment and the plants economy.
When generating electric power, a
substantial amount of chilling can be
generated from the exhaust gas and engine
cooling waste energy by applying absorption
chiller technology. Wrtsil has therefore
designed its cogeneration chilling plants in
such a way that the demands for power and
chilling can be met optimally.
AMBIENT INFLUENCESBoth electric power and chilling consumption is
dependent on seasonal and daily fluctuations,
and the cogeneration plant has to follow the
load accordingly.
These variations can be very big, with
ambient temperatures reaching 50C during
summer afternoons, and energy plants must
be designed to operate in such extreme
conditions.
Similarly, there are fluctuations in electrical
power consumption. Today, 70% of the
electricity produced in the Middle East is used
for compressor chiller drives.
WRTSIL COMBINED HEAT, COOLING AND POWER MAKES EVERY DROP COUNT

5PREVAILING TECHNOLOGYThe total efficiency of the prevailing technology serving individual electrically driven air conditioning (AC) units or rooftop AC installations is very poor.
Residential HVACTraditionally, chilling has been generated by compressor technology which shows a high coefficient of performance (COP), meaning the output energy (chilled water) divided by the input energy (electricity). Thus the COP is a unit-free number between 16, depending on the design and the use of prevailing technology. Furthermore, the industry frequently expresses chilling power in tons of refrigeration, TR (1 TR = 3.52 kWch). Depending on ambient temperature, a small residential AC unit will generate 12 kWe/TR.
Condominium HVACFor rooftop installations on bigger buildings, combining a compressor driven chilling plant with a local cooling radiator, are commonly used. Such plants will have a COP of up to 6 and a production factor below 1 kWe/TR. However, all chilling plants are dependent on the ambient air temperature for the cooling radiator. The paradox is that the higher the ambient temperature is, the lower the plant efficiency becomes.
Absorption chillers can recover waste heat from various sources and convert heat energy into chilling without any electric power for the compressor. When steam is used as the driving medium, a COP of 1.3 is achievable, while for hot water the COP is 0.8.
District Cooling SystemsIn some cities a pipe network of district cooling has been established in order to provide blocks and special facilities with chilling. Plants generating district chilling combine free cooling, compressor systems and absorption chillers, utilizing primary fuels.

6Chilling and trigeneration is cogeneration
taken one step further through the inclusion of
various absorption chiller designs and steam
generation.
The inclusion of chillers starts to pay-off as
soon as there are periods when not all heat
or chilling can be used directly for heating
purposes, or when there is a use for chilled
ONE STEP FURTHER WITH ABSORPTION CHILLERSwater or air instead. Trigeneration is used
for air conditioning, for heating in winter and
cooling in summer. It can also be used for
heating in one area and cooling in another.
The concept is based on the joint need for
heat and chilled water in order to maximize
the total efficiency of the plant. With a Wrtsil
trigeneration power plant you will obtain the

same output with considerably less fuel input
than with separate power and heat generation.
Moreover, a power plant located close to
the consumer has lower electricity distribution
losses and safer distribution due to short
distribution lines, which also increases the total
efficiency of the plant.

8The Wrtsil DCAP (District Cooling and
Power) system has been developed for
very hot areas where no heat is required,
only power and chilled water for AC. These
systems can be designed for 50000 TR.
Flexibility in trigeneration and DCAP
can be further improved by using cold
water storages, and also by using the
topping-up control capacity offered
by compressor chillers. The running
philosophy and control strategy are
significant factors and should be properly
evaluated.
The optimal solution is always based on the
right design and sizing. The entire chilled water
demand does not need to be covered solely
by absorption chillers. Using electrically driven
chillers and/or chilled water storage tanks to
cover peaks minimizes the total investment
cost of the chiller capacity.
The District Cooling and Power (DCAP)
system has been developed by Wrtsil, not
only as an energy supply plant, but also for
providing complete energy deliveries to newly
developed cities. In such places it is important
to reduce the total amount of fossil energy,
thereby reducing the environmental impact.
The plant can provide both the required
electricity and chilling, even during the hottest
part of the year. The chilling peaks can be
covered by a cold water storage tank, avoiding
additional engines and compressor facilities.
The plant is designed so that all waste heat
available when the engines feed electricity to
the grid, is used for chilling. If the chilled water
cannot be utilized, the plant can run in pure
electricity mode or charge the storage tanks.
The absorption chillers will cover the baseload
demand; when this supply is not big enough
storage tank and compressor chillers will cover
the balance.

Fast delivery, stepwise expansion
according to growing demand, high plant
efficiency and true flexibility make Wrtsil
combined heat and power plants a sound
choice in todays cost-conscious power
market. It is the choice that allows you to
focus on the essentials in your own core
business: treating your dwellers, shoppers,
passengers, patients, students and staff to
safe, smoothly operating premises with a
constantly enjoyable, well-controlled climate.
Wrtsils solutions for power, heat and
chilling are easily adaptable to specific
needs and different markets.
PREPARED FOR PERFECTIONSECURE INVESTMENT WITH OVERALL FLEXIBILITYYou can choose to build up the plant gradually
and optimize it during the years to come by
adding more generating sets according to
demand. Fast delivery and stepwise expansion
enable rapid profit generation with smaller
investment risks.
Furthermore, a multi-unit installation
guarantees excellent operational reliability.
Individual generating sets can easily be taken
in and out of operation as load requirements
vary. Single large units cannot achieve the
same level of availability or adapt as flexibly to
the actual demand.
When service or repairs are due, the work
is carried out on-site in non-critical hours, one
unit at a time without expensive transport or
production downtime.
TOUGH AND ROBUSTWrtsil power plants offer unfaltering
performance in challenging conditions.
Whereas stifling heat, dryness and high
altitudes significantly weaken the performance
of a single large unit, Wrtsil engines keep
on running. Gas power plants in particular, are
virtually immune to ageing. The engines will
run at optimum performance from overhaul to
overhaul. With 64,000 actual running hours
before the first major overhaul, Wrtsil gas
engines are tougher than most.
The robust design of the plant also ensures
unrivalled reliability in earthquake-sensitive
areas.
CLEAN, LEAN AND QUIETA Wrtsil power plant situated in the midst of
a densely populated area or on environmentally
vulnerable ground is a considerate and
responsible neighbor: clean, lean and quiet.
Due to the unbeatable electrical efficiency
throughout the load range, the CO2 emissions
are very low. Combined heat and power
solutions minimize emissions and will easily
comply with the most stringent regulations.
In cogeneration and trigeneration, almost no
cooling of the engines is needed as the heat
from the process is taken into profitable use.
Co- and trigeneration are closed processes
with the capability to turn cost into profit.
