Oresundsverket Combined Heat and Power (CHP) Plant, Sweden GE Delivers Turnkey CHP Plant with World-Class Efficiency Largest Swedish energy project in the last 25 years Designed to operate ~7,000 hours per year Produces 3 TWh of electricity and 1 TWh of district heat annually

“ We selected GE because of their power generation experience and leadership,” said Anders Svensson, Malmo plant manager, “and we are sure that we have the world’s most efficient CHP plant of its kind.”

E.On Sweden, one of the largest and most environmentally conscious power producers in Sweden, is having great success with the Oresundsverket CHP plant. Located in Malmo, Sweden, the CHP plant provides electricity for 70 percent of the households in southern Sweden along with 40 percent of Malmo’s heating requirements. Featuring GE’s latest combined-cycle technology, including a 9FB gas turbine and DLN 2.6+ combustion system, the plant generates 453 MW of electricity at greater than 58 percent efficiency. At full cogeneration, the CHP plant produces 400 MW of electricity and 250 MW of heat at 90 percent efficiency while decreasing carbon dioxide emission levels by about 1,000,000 tons per year.
