About This Project
The Village of Essex Junction, Vermont purchased and installed a 150 ekW/h CHP system for their Waste Water Treatment Facility. This facility serves a tri-county area, including the Village of Essex Junction, the Town of Essex, and the Town of Williston. Between these three areas, 3.3 million gallons of water are treated per day. The facility originally opened in 1965 and has undergone several modifications since then to continue serving the community while protecting the water quality of Lake Champlain. The most recent modification occurred in 2012 with the approval of a $15 million budget to upgrade the current facility. Included in the investment is the 150 ekW/h CHP biogas system. 2G's modular system will allow the methane gas produced from the waste to provide electricity and heat while significantly reducing greenhouse emissions. 2G Energy Inc. was chosen to supply the biogas CHP equipment because of reputation and experience. The scope of supply consists of a containerized 2G filius 206 with MAN engine, optimized for most efficient operation in biogas configuration generating Electrical Power of up to 1,245 MW p.a., and approx. 193 kWh/th of Thermal Power. 2G also supplied the complete control and switchgear package, including utility interconnection.
