Jenbacher Engines Installed at French Greenhouse

摘要

Since the beginning of the year, two of GE's Jenbacher J624 two-stage turbo-charged gas engines have enabled French grower Serres Vinet to generate all of the hot water and electricity required for its extensive tomato and lettuce greenhouse operations in Machecoul, in the Loire-Atlantique region. These are the first two-stage turbocharged gas engines in France, and they are the heart of two cogenera- tion plants powering Serres Vinet's existing greenhouse operations plus a recent 17-hectare (42-acre) expansion.
