Once the ORC system is put into operation, as is planned for April 2018, solar energy \u2013 collected via thermal oil at around 300 \u00b0C \u2013 is said to be used for fuelling it. \u201cBy the end of this July, the collector field will have produced 6,500 MWh, and we expect 16,000 MWh from year-round operation,\u201d said Thorkil Neergaard, Managing Director of Br\u00f8nderslev Forsyning. This would translate into a specific yield of 594 kWh\/m\u00b2a. Both biomass systems are said to start producing heat late this year. Neergaard expects gas to be used only during very cold periods and perhaps the units could be stopped during some years completely.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>More information in the following link:<\/div>\n<p>http:\/\/helioscsp.com\/concentrated-solar-power-collectors-for-district-heat-in-northern-europe\/<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"16.6MWth Concentrated solar power plant in Denmark\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/cbBieMrQTGE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Compared to steam turbines based on a water circuit, ORC installations make it possible to recover heat from low-temperature sources available in small-capacity plants.
