Phasing out coal in Germany with CHP plants running on biomethane
The German city of Hanover and energy service provider enercity have taken a major step toward their goal of climate-neutral electricity and heat generation with the launch of two combined heat and power (CHP) plants from INNIO Group. Each 20 MW plant, equipped with five Jenbacher engines, runs on biomethane. They spring into action during peak hours when too little renewable energy is available on the grid, marking an important step in the area's energy transition.
