JENBACHER GAS ENGINES FOR A POWERFUL FUTURE

INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY THAT’S ALWAYS FLEXIBLE
nWith an installed base of 30 GW, INNIO’s Jenbacher gas engines have more than half a century of global experience providing efficient generation of power and heat. Our primary production facility in Jenbach, Austria, leads the development and production of gasfueled reciprocating engines, packaged generator sets, and cogeneration units. INNIO’s Jenbacher gas engines range in power from 200 kW to 10 MW and run on either natural gas or a variety of other gases (such as biogas, landfill gas, coal mine gas, sewage gas, and combustible industrial waste gases).

FASTER GROWTH WITH GAS ENGINES
INNIO’s Jenbacher combined heat and power (CHP) systems not only provide electricity for on-site or public grid use, but also heat and CO2 to fertilize plants and meet the requirements of an efficient greenhouse. By increasing the intensity of the artificial lighting that is found in some greenhouses, plants absorb even more CO2. Plant growth and the subsequent harvest yield can be significantly increased by enriching the greenhouse environment with CO2, keeping the temperature constant, and providing sufficient lighting.

THE JENBACHER CONCEPT
The energy created by gas engine cogeneration systems in greenhouses can be used in various ways. The electricity can provide the power for artificial lighting and/or be fed into the public grid. And while the heat can efficiently meet the greenhouse’s requirements, the CO2 from the engine exhaust gas can help fertilize the plants. That’s because the exhaust from gas engines burning natural gas contains approximately 0.2 kg of CO2 per kWh of energy input. After the exhaust gas is purified using special catalytic converters (SCR and oxidation converters), it is cooled down by a heat exchanger to approximately 55°C and supplied to the greenhouse for CO2 enrichment. A device that constantly measures the exhaust gas levels helps ensure the vegetation’s safety.
