Case Study: British Gas Distribution Company generates electricity from natural gas pressure reduction with Rimkus

British Gas Distribution Company powers its Kent facility with Rimkus through a new turboexpander and CHP plant

A British gas distribution company faced the challenge of capturing the potential energy lost when reducing the pressure of natural gas at its facility in Kent. The company engaged Rimkus to help harness this energy to generate electricity via a new turboexpander and combined heat and power (CHP) plant installation.

Rimkus provided comprehensive pre- and post-contract services, supporting procurement, tender analysis, contract planning, cost forecasting, and the final settlement of contractor accounts. By effectively managing multiple complex contract forms, Rimkus enabled the successful implementation of the project, allowing the client to generate power for its own offices and infrastructure.
