Renewable
Energy and
Co-Generation
With an increased
global emphasis on sustainability, energy efficiency and renewable energy,
there is a growing imperative to reduce greenhouse gases and mitigate
global warming. i.power solutions are capable of providing professional
delivery and implementation of integrated and innovative solutions that
are practical, tangible and sustainable. For the burgeoning renewable
energy market and its associated industries, i.power solutions can turn
a co-generation power station concept into a reality, proving that renewable
energy can help our clients meet their business needs, reduce energy
costs, improve the quality and reliability of electricity supply; all
without compromising the environment.
Providing a total
turnkey package, our Projects & Construction team involves many
professional disciplines including draftspersons; electrical, mechanical
and control systems engineers; engineering technologists, construction
managers and project managers.
With the Projects
& Construction team possessing backgrounds from a variety of industries,
i.power solutions' professional capabilities include the design, engineering,
procurement, construction, commissioning and project management which
have all been applied on 'distributed generation'-scale power generation
infrastructure.
Previous co-generation
and power generation projects have included the design, supply, construction,
installation, commissioning, initial operation and project management
of electrical equipment, rotating machinery and electric drives, and
control systems for optimal and efficient use of heat and power. Recent
successes include the Isis Co-Generation Power Station for Ergon Energy
and the Milling Train Electricification for the Isis Central Sugar Mill;
both of which showcase the engineering application of renewable energy
and energy efficiency technologies.
- Ergon
Energy - Isis Central sugar Mill Co-Generation Power Station
(Childers, Queensland)
Mid-2004
saw a contractual agreement undertaken between i.power solutions,
Ergon Energy and Isis Central Sugar Mill to formally appoint
i.power solutions as Principal
Contractor for the design and delivery of the Isis Co-Generation
Power Station.
The decision
to undertake the entire project was prompted not only by the
success of similar generation control projects within various
industries (as outlined below), but by the confidence that we
had the right expertise within our Projects & Construction
team to undertake a project of this size, further involving
mechanical and electrical disciplines, and construction and
project management. Read

As a measure
of confidence in the Queensland Sugar Industry, the construction
of the Isis Co-Generation Power Station enabled the modernization
of the Milling Train at the Isis Central Sugar Mill. The new
electric, centrally controlled drives will provide improved
energy and process efficiency, control and rationalized operational
practices. Read More.

The Lautoka Mill powerhouse control system required new turbo-generator
and diesel-generator governing and control regulating equipment, new
mill/grid interconnector controls and steam reducing station controls
to mitigate the Mill tripping due to power quality problems. i.Power
were engaged to design, construct, supply and commission a new control
system which included a new control panel, diesel-generator regulator,
battery charger, PLC equipment and CitectSCADA system.
