Client/Year Project Description

Vattenfall Heat Poland
2007-2008

Analyses regarding the possibility of constructing a new CHP Plant in Grudziądz municipality (kujawsko-pomorskie province). The report presents the concept of a coal fired 2x800 MW ultra supercritical power plant with an open cooling system (water from the Vistula), and alternatively with a closed cooling system with a cooling tower. A preliminary layout of the plant in the area indicated by the Employer was made. External conditions for the project in the suggested location were analysed, including connection to the HV power grid, connection to the road and railway systems, possibilities to take in and discharge post-cooling water, collisions with airway routes. A preliminary analysis of railway and truck transport for the new power plant was made, including agreements with the Polish Railway regarding the construction of a railway siding. A preliminary geotechnical analysis of the location was carried out to determine the conditions for building settlement. A preliminary environmental impact assessment was made for the new power plant, including Nature 2000 and other protected areas. Taking into account the analyses specified above, a general investment budget was prepared for the green-field project with all the accompanying infrastructure in the analysed location.

Vattenfall Heat Poland
2006

Pre-feasibility study for a construction of a new unit in Warsaw. The analyses covered multiple alternatives of power units from 200 to 700 MWe, sub- and supercritical, of varied heal output. Analyses were made for two possible locations, at Siekierki CHP Plant and at Kaweczyn Heat Plant. Technical and economic optimisation involved incorporation of new facilities into the existing process systems, in compliance with the present and future environmental requirements. The analyses took into account a number of parameters and conditions influencing the optimal selection of recommended alternative, such as combustion technologies, steam parameters, thermal cycle of the plant, concept of district heating part, various cooling solutions involving an open cooling system as well as dry and wet fan cooling towers, plant preparation for the future requirements for CO2 reduction. Thermal cycles of the analysed alternatives were modelled and analysed for a number of loads. As a result of the analyses, supercritical coal-fired units were recommended as optimum solution, for the location of Siekierki - 450 MWe net, for the location of Kaweczyn - 650 MWe.
