EVO Komořany - construction of waste-to-energy plant
United Energy, a.s. has concluded a contract for the construction of a waste-to-energy plant with the contractor chosen in the selection procedure, the SESMETIC association. The selected consortium of SES a.s., Metrostav DIZ s.r.o. and I&C Energo a.s. will implement the construction for more than 5 billion CZK in the existing industrial area of the Komořany heating plant.
Basic project specifications:
The EVO - Komořany project was created with the aim of using the waste in an efficient and environmentally friendly way through a modern energy recovery facility with a capacity of 150,000 tonnes of municipal waste per year.
Another important objective is to replace the combustion of fossil fuels (about 120,000 tonnes of lignite annually) with another energy source, thus expanding the fuel mix of the heating plant while maintaining the competitiveness of the price of the heat and electricity produced and supplied. It is also an important objective to fulfil the waste management plans in force and to minimise landfilling.
Within the SESMETIC association, I&C Energo is responsible for the electrical area (station internal power consumption systems, Cabling, Diesel Generator, Power Output), as well as for the I&C systems including field instrumentation, communication systems (voice and data communication, security camera system, electrical fire alarm system (EPS), radio) and also for the Technical Physical Security System (electronic security system (EZS) and access control system (SKV)) in the scope of design, supply, installation, testing and commissioning. I&C Energo a.s. will also supply selected engineering activities as a subcontractor to SES a.s.
