Çankırı Pelitözü – 1 x MWM TCG 2020 V16 Landfill

The Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources of the Republic of Turkey provides incentives to investors to increase the number of facilities that will produce energy from biogas and landfill gas. Together with the projects carried out within the scope of the incentives provided in 2020 and 2021, İltekno has partnered with MWM and has provided solutions with MWM’s high-tech gas engines specially configured for landfill gas and biogas at engineering, installation and service points for 85 Gas Engines in 30 different cities of its 42 customers operating in this field.

İltekno uses user-friendly MWM brand TCG 2016 / 3016/2020 / 3020 series engines that are highly efficient, do not require major maintenance for relatively long periods even when operated under difficult conditions. Biogas and landfill gas engines, which are exposed to difficult conditions and equipped with various sensors and advanced technology control systems placed on MWM Gas engine and environmental equipment, are managed with milliseconds of measured data, and offer low-cost and high-efficiency operation opportunity with hardware and software that allows proactive applications in the facilities which have their engineering and installation carried out by İltekno.

The intense interest in the incentives provided brings with it challenges such as the simultaneous execution of the project and commissioning process of many facilities in a very short period of time. This requires flawless coordination and cooperation at every stage from procurement to engineering and field work to commissioning.

In order to manage many projects simultaneously and to meet the deadline for benefiting from incentives, it is necessary to manage projects in different locations with more than one team. Thanks to the long years of successful cooperation, successful engineering/project management and experienced field staff of İltekno and MWM, İltekno has successfully commissioned 16 gas engines in 10 different cities in October 2020, of those 9 gas engines in 6 different cities only in the last week of October with last acceptance date of October 31 and 7 gas engines in 7 different cities in June 2021, of those 7 gas engines in 7 different cities only in the last week of June with last acceptance date of June 30 without any delay.   

İltekno has helped its customers create economical added value with MWM biogas and landfill gas engines and increased the share of environmentally friendly energy solutions in the total installed power amount. İltekno and MWM will continue to provide all necessary support for the most efficient and environmentally friendly operation of these facilities in the coming years.

İltekno, with its MWM gas engines, is offering cogeneration system solutions aiming at meeting the increasing energy demands of hospitals in the period of pandemic, thereby helping its customers in deriving both economic and ecological benefits therefrom.  As per the agreement signed with Memorial Healthcare Group, cogeneration systems are successfully installed and commissioned with 1 x 800 kWe capacity TCG 3016V16 gas engine in Ankara Çankaya Hospital and 1 x 1000 kWe capacity TCG 2020V12 gas engine in Istanbul Bahçelievler Hospital of the group.

The first general (full-fledged) hospital with LEED Platinum Certificate in the world…

LEED Certificate is a system of USGBC (United States Green Building Council) rating the green buildings. This Certificate aims to further promote and disseminate the environmentally-conscious designing, application and operation standards on building- and urban-scales. Memorial Bahçelievler Hospital is the first general (full-fledged) hospital with LEED Platinum Certificate in the world. And the high energy efficiency, one of the important requirements of LEED platinum certificate, has thus been secured thanks to the cogeneration system installed therein.

Minimum sound level and optimum vibration solutions

Roof-mounted projects, with Memorial Istanbul project setting a good example thereof, have at all times been challenging in installation, design and safety terms. At the phase of selection of a supplier for the project, achievements in vibration and sound levels of the solutions offered by İltekno with MWM Engines have played a major role in choice of İltekno.

Thanks to our insulated container, we reached such very low sound levels as 65 dB at a distance of 10 meters. And tape cartridges installed by us in ventilation units have also diminished noise pollution in our power station to minimum levels as far as possible. Furthermore, in the project, the desired sound levels have been successfully reached also through special critical type exhaust silencers.

Under the vibration insulators procured from MWM, with rubber cushions manufactured and installed by us, our power station generates energy in a stable manner with its vibration problem minimized as much as possible.

In virtue of these improvements, our project has been successfully commissioned without any disturbance to either hospital or environment.

Installation works completed in only 36 hours along a thoroughfare at downtown…

At the installation stage of the project of Memorial Hospital located along one of the main thoroughfares of Istanbul, a work permit of 3 days is received from local authorities for a crane of 750 tons, and street of the hospital is closed to traffic. Taking into consideration the job safety concerns, through a detailed planning and an effective work of all teams, the installation works which normally take 4-5 days are completed in only 36 hours, and the street is reopened to traffic in a short time.

The Final Result: Increasing Efficiency and Reducing Carbon Emissions

Thanks to cogeneration systems installed in its hospitals in Ankara, the capital city of Turkey, and in Istanbul, the largest metropolitan of it, Memorial Healthcare Group is going to save around 400,000 Euros a year in its electricity and water bills in general. In addition, the efficient gas engines used in the systems are expected to bring a reduction of around 20% in carbon emissions. Aside from cost advantages and reducing emissions brought by cogeneration systems, continuous power supply has also been secured as a very critical factor for to the hospital operations.
