Amazone spart Energie mit neuem BHKW

In ihrem Stammwerk am Standort Hasbergen-Gaste bei Osnabrück haben die Amazonen-Werke jetzt ein Blockheizkraftwerk (BHKW) in Betrieb genommen. Mit 250 KW elektrischer und 290 KW thermischer Leistung sind die Kennwerte der neuen Anlage beeindruckend. So produziert sie mit Hilfe eines Otto-Gas-Motors und Erdgas jährlich rund 1,5 Mio. KWh Strom. Dies entspricht einem Heizöläquivalent von 180.000 Litern. Gleichzeitig wird die Abwärme des Motors für den Betrieb der werkseigenen Farbgebungsanlage sowie die Beheizung der Werksanlagen genutzt.

Mit Hilfe des neuen Kraftwerks erzeugen die Amazonen-Werke jetzt rund 30 % ihres Wärmebedarfs am Standort Gaste selbst. Dabei ist die Energieeffizienz sehr hoch, denn die Anlage erreicht einen Wirkungsgrad von über 90%. Im Vergleich dazu arbeiten z.B. Kohlekraftwerke mit einem Wirkungsgrad von nur ca. 35 %. Mit diesen Kennwerten macht sich die Investition schon nach kurzer Zeit bezahlt. Gleichzeitig leisten die Amazonen-Werke einen Beitrag zum Klimaschutz.
