Dublin Airport.
The three CHP engines at Dublin Airport have a combined output of 6.7MW (e). The CHP operating strategy is determined by the amount of potential savings generated. Savings are calculated based on the relative difference between natural gas and electricity and by the ability to use the heat generated. The heat is used for space heating and some domestic hot water in the terminals, for which we would have a very low demand in summer months.
Renewal will be 36 months from award date.
Please note that only those companies registered with the Commission for Energy Regulation, PO Box 11934, Dublin 24, Ireland, and in possession of a valid license to supply gas and or electricity in Ireland as of the 19 December 2017, will be permitted to participate in the upcoming tender for DAA electricity and gas requirements 2019 - 2021.
