S.C. LUKOIL ENERGY & GAS ROMANIA S.R.L. is managing a unique plant in terms of ecology — combined heat and power plant (TPP-2), and a modern photovoltaic power plant, located in the south of the country. Produced heat and electricity is supplied to the refinery PETROTEL-LUKOIL. Also, photovoltaic energy is sold to the wholesale electricity market in Romania.
TPP-2 — is a unique ecological object. Its crucial component — steam boiler — executed with the most modern technology for solid fuel boilers, fluid bed technology. As fuel for boiler is used the cheapest refinery finished product — petroleum coke. Technology ability of the boiler permits to assure combustion with minimum nitric oxides emission and almost freeing of sulfur oxides. This is actually a coal station with a medical level of cleanliness at all levels, ranging from fuel supplying and ending with zero mark.
Automated control system of technological process used by TPP permits to maintain power quality within European Union standards.
TPP-2 supplies heat to the refinery PETROTEL-LUKOIL.
Installed electric power: 9 МW
Photovoltaic station in Romania was built in 2014, with LUKOIL-Ecoenergo participation, to develop alternative energetics. The object was placed on idle space within refinery PETROTEL-LUKOIL, situated in the south of Romania in Ploiesti city.
Basically there are 35300 polycrystalline silicon solar modules 255 W each. Coming from it tension is transformed by 27 invertors with 334 kW capacity.
PV plant is connected to electrical substation line and, through transformer, is joined with national electro energetic system of Romania. According to the project, calculated yearly production of power with PV plant is 12050 MWh.
The main consumer of solar power is the refinery PETROTEL-LUKOIL. By using PV plant are also charged electric cars used by operating staff of the company. The company is supplier for wholesale electricity market in Romania either.
