Grontmij converts Helsingør power plant from natural gas to biomass

Grontmij has been commissioned for the total project management, health and safety issues and the design of all mechanical and electrical installations. For the new facility this involves the design of a boiler unit, flue gas cleaning and condensing systems, fuel management systems and supporting equipment. In the existing plant, the steam turbine will be prepared to run on steam from both the existing and the new plant. The entire facility will have a capacity of 70 MW fuel, which corresponds to the annual electricity and heat consumption of over 15,000 households.

John Chubb, Country Managing Director Grontmij Denmark: 'Denmark is pushing for a conversion of the energy sector and Grontmij is fully engaged in several land mark projects. In the conversion of Helsingør power plant we enjoy a very collaborative relation to the client who also benefit from the leading energy competencies delivered by our strong team of Danish and Swedish Grontmij energy experts. The same team is currently also working for DONG Energy with the conversion of the Skaerbaek power plant to natural wood chips and for our client HOFOR we are involved in the BIO 4 HOFOR project.'

Leading experts in energy
Energy is one of Grontmij’s four key focus areas, besides Water, Sustainable Buildings and Highways & Roads. Grontmij is well positioned within the European energy sector and will continue to grow its position in bio- and waste energy and other plants, thermal energy conversion, grid infrastructure and district heating. Through the Group’s accumulated expertise, Grontmij is increasingly bringing together teams from around Europe with tailored expertise for specific projects.
