Danes export energy plants even if butter / bacon is haram in the ME

Thameswey Energy Limited (Woking Council - see note ) have had a long standing relationship with Danish energy company Xergi Limited (a wholly owned subsidiary of Xergi A/S, Denmark) and are about to extend the existing co-generation plant in the town centre of Woking, Nr London. This will consist of an additional gas engine, absorption cooling plant, boiler as well as an expansion of the existing heat rejection facilities for the existing absorption cooling plant.

Further, the existing networks are to be extended to a new county council building and gallery as well as to the nearby cinema/theatre building and the YMCA.

The co-generation system in Woking is a tri-generation system (the first in England), which supplies heat, cold water and electricity in private supply lines to the customers.

Xergi GmbH (a wholly owned subsidiary of Xergi A/S, Denmark) is to deliver a turnkey biogas plant to Gut Quarnbek, Kiel, Germany.

The plant is a 500 kWe plant which is to treat 10-12,000 tons of biomass per year. 85% of the gas production will come from energy crops. The remaining gas production will come from cattle and chicken manure.

The price for the electricity produced on the plant will attract an additional 20 EUR/ MWh electricity in the form of a "new technology bonus" as the plant has been extended by an Organic Rankine Cycle plant. The ORC plant utilizes the flue gas of the gas engine for further electricity production.

The construction works are expected to start immediately after receipt of the building permit, approx. 1 May, and the biogas plant is expected to produce electricity by the end of 2006.

In 2004, Demmark's energy-related industries exported DKK 32b (EUR 4.3b) worth of products, according to the Danish Energy Authority.

Much of that growth is thanks to an increase in the export of wind turbines. In 2004, wind technology exports made up 70 percent of energy technology exports, especially to the USA.

This thriving export industry is based on a busy domestic industry ,,, As of 1 January 2005, Denmark had a wind capacity of 3118 MW, 424 MW at offshore wind-turbines.

In 2004, wind-power production accounted for 18.5% of Danish domestic electricity supply against 15.8% the previous year; wind turbines produced 23.7 PJ of electricity, which amounts to 2.9% of corrected gross energy-consumption. 2004 was close to being a normal wind year.

Thameswey Energy is a failed public/private venture. Look in the Woking Borough Council account for 2004/2005. Please correct your blog.
