ABB has won a contract from E.On for its Swedish power station.
E.ON is investing almost £220m in a new 25 megawatt waste-to-energy plant in northwest Stockholm, made up of the CHP facility and a biogas plant.
The site is adjacent to a recycling centre, making it a ‘closed loop’ waste-to-energy sys-tem. The biogas facility is expected to become operational next year, with the CHP plant on track to open in 2019, producing electricity and heat for Stockholm’s growing population.
ABB will be involved in reviewing and shaping the design of alarms proposed for the site and evaluating E.ON’s existing approach to alarm systems.
An ABB company spokesperson said: “We believe good alarm system performance cannot be provided only by technology,” said the senior alarm management consultant. “Equally it cannot be sustained solely by the en-gagement of external consultants and vendors. Good, sustained, performance is achievable through informed and motivated management of the system by the system owner.”
