Steam to steam for steam grid balancing
Storing steam gives flexibility for steam supply on demand
Industrial processes are usually not designed for volatility. In order to attain stability, heating of endothermal- or cooling of exothermal processes must continue round the clock – adding major cost and resource burdens to power plants. But all too often batch processes or interruptions lead to imbalances between supply and demand requiring back-up boilers to start or steam to be dumped.
Our steam to steam storage system fills exactly this gap by storing, time-shifting and balancing high- or medium pressure steam to make it available on demand: achieving true balance needed for greener industrial processes.
How steam to steam for steam grid balancing works
How this benefits your business
Decarbonize heat immediately
Quite often quick wins can be achieved in reducing CO2 emissions on the way to net zero with consuming less energy to produce steam and efficiently balance steam supply.
Save money easily
Depending on client setup, commercial payback can usually be reached in less than 6 years, due to significant cost savings in fuel and carbon certificates. Sometimes additional savings from condensation purification and maintenance can also be achieved.
Increase security of supply
Harness increased security of supply with auxiliary boilers usually remaining as backup in cold standby, increasing redundancy to n-2.
Optimize automation
