GL-TURBO Steps Forward in Europe

12/1/2017 – Copenhagen – GL-TURBO International and HOFOR have signed a contract regarding delivery of a GL5 Single Stage Centrifugal Turbo Blower to HOFOR’s Amagervaerket Power Station. The GL5 blower will serve as an FGD (flue-gas desulfurization) oxidation blower. It will replace the existing but outdated blower at the power plant, which HOFOR has been longing to upgrade to improve efficiency and reliability. This order represents a significant step forward by GL-TURBO in Europe and an important reference within power-station related FGD blower applications.

HOFOR is Denmark’s largest utility company. The company serves more than one million inhabitants in the Greater Copenhagen area, providing them with district heating, district cooling, town gas, water supply and wastewater services. The Amagervaerket Power Station, with total capacity of 300 MW electricity and 580 MW heating, supplies approximately 12 percent of electricity consumption in Denmark and fulfills 30 percent of the heating demand in the Greater Copenhagen’s district heating system. The Amagervaerket plant is located to the east of Copenhagen.
