Here's a progress report on the UBC gasifier CHP project. Tom Advanced Biomass Gasification for Heat and Power Demonstration Project
Project Lead: John Gorjup, OERD, NRCan - Ottawa Lead Proponent: University of British Columbia Initial CEF Contribution: $ 8 M Add-on Project: $ 2 M Project Total:$ 28 M Strategic Area: Bioenergy Location: UBC Point Grey Campus, Vancouver, British Columbia Background: University of British Columbia (UBC) is committed to leadership in sustainability, which was well demonstrated by meeting its Kyoto targets for GHG reduction five years early. In order to continue leadership in this area, UBC is committed to take advantage of its unique capacity for research and problem solving to embrace and deploy leading-edge clean energy technologies and concepts. UBC is working on this project with Nexterra and GE Energy, along with GE subsidiary Jenbacher Ltd., one of the world's leading manufacturers of gas-fueled reciprocating engines, packaged generator sets and cogeneration units for power generation. Add-on Project: To add Engine Heat Recovery (EHR), Electro Chemical Energy Storage (ECES) and Supervisory Management and Control to the CHP system to validate a CHP system in combination with Energy storage to improve system efficiency, reduce implementation costs and provide knowledge on systems of this type.
