Case Study: Yorkshire Water saves £1.3million with Edina’s 3.2MWe CHP plant

Edina 3.2MWe CHP powers Yorkshire Water’s Esholt Sewage facility saving £1.3million in energy costs

Yorkshire Water faced a challenge at its Esholt Sewage Treatment Works, where it sought to improve energy efficiency from the anaerobic digestion process. The utility provider appointed Edina to supply and install a new containerized combined heat and power (CHP) plant to power the large site.

Edina implemented a solution featuring two MWM TCG 2020 V16 biogas engines with a combined output of 3.2MWe. This new CHP facility provided power and heat for the site, allowing for the seamless relocation of existing units with no loss of power. The project, completed in 2013, saves Yorkshire Water £1.3 million per year in energy costs and reduces its carbon emissions by 9,000 tonnes.
