mCHP Workshop Session 3: Gas Industry Activity Dr. Martin Wilmsmann E.ON Ruhrgas, Germany Paris, 29/30. May 2008
Content • E.ON Ruhrgas´ mCHP strategy • Organisation/Coordination of mCHP activities in E.ON group • Finished – ongoing – planned activities • Current situation in Germany
Gas Competence-Center Competence-Center Gas Utilization Process & Service Facilities Sector Gas Measurement Pipeline Sector Technical Cooperation Gas Heat Pumps Environment Protection via Support of Sustainable Technologies mCHP devices Keeping / Enlarging of established and new Markets
Key Elements of mCHP-Strategy • technology-open - no exclusive cooperation • no manufacturing activities – no R&D activities role as technology user • testing of a variety of pre-commercial systemsunder realistic conditions • practical experience as basisfor sound assessment of technology • transforming operation experience into forecastsas part of E.ON Energie‘s long term planning model • forecasting of future gas selling ratesas part of energy supply szenarios • assessment of grid implicationsregarding safety and grid issues (power and gas)

Way of market introduction Lab tests Commercial. Field tests assessment expertise Established test facilities of ERG for lab testing of domestic smale scale CHP Field test experiences with CHP devices in Germany / UK
Outstanding Test rig Assessment of operability and operating performance • heland hth as function of: • - gas varieties (H-gas, L-gas, serveral test gases) • - part load conditions • - different pairs of water flow and return temperatures • emission measurement (hydrocarbons, CO, NOx) • Measurement of standard annual efficiency to German Nutzungsgrad standard procedure • Power quality • Noise • Vabration
Fuel Cell Activities PAFC future activities MCFC Continued lab and field trials with all kinds of mCHP technologies PEM SOFC 1995 2000 2005 2005 2010
Ongoing field trials BAXI Fuel Cell Operating time 2006-2008 • Number of devices: 3 WhisperGen Stirling Operating time 2007-2009 • Number of devices: 7 Hexis Fuel Cell Operating time 2006-2008 • Number of devices: 1
mCHP-Activities • Two units are currently being installed on a commercial basis: • Senertec: • approx. 18,000 units sold • sales rate about 2000 units/a • Price: €15,000 / €22,000 • EcoPower:approx. 1000 units sold, 450 units sold in 2006, + 50% expected in the next 2 years. • Price: €18,000 • Beside E.ON Ruhrgas / E.ON Energy a number of utilities are active in the field of mCHP-systems.Following utilities are involved of testing mCHP-units: EWE - EnBW - MVV - Gasag - Gelsenwasser - RWE FC - Verbundnetz Gas (VNG)…..
