Power Generation
Solutions for Traditional and Alternative Energy
Power Generation
IM Power offers a range of energy plants with outputs from 50 MW to 1,000 MW and above. All plants are designed for long-term reliability and consistent performance over the power range. These plants can be installed with combinations of solar and wind turbines to meet the requirements of the COP21 agreement whilst also ensuring the reliable output demanded by rail electrification and metal refining industries.
Transmission Lines & Substations
We develop transmission lines and sub-stations to deliver energy to the end user. This can be a specific consumer or the national grid. The transmission lines typically consist of a double circuit to allow for further loads to be supplied with increased power generation without effecting the stability of the system. For longer distances, the system can include high voltage direct current transmission (HGVC) to reduce line losses.
Modernization
IM Power devises and implements investment strategies to deliver enhanced asset value by increasing the efficiency of a power plant via equipment refurbishment plant upgrades and improved O&M schedules.
​
To meet the requirements of COP21, coal-fired power plants can be retrofitted with equipment to capture the carbon and process it into animal feed, avoiding the need for carbon storage and providing an additional revenue stream. Where natural gas or LNG are available, steam turbines can be replaced with a combined cycle gas turbine, waste heat boiler and steam turbine to improve efficiency.
Engineering, Procurement & Construction
Along with our partners, we provide a full engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) service as a part of the development of integrated power and industrial infrastructure projects. Consulting engineers are appointed with specific expertise in the technology being used and will certify payments at each stage of the construction in accordance with banks and insurance requirements. The project will be managed from inception to completion by an organisation consisting of representatives of each of the partners.
Operations & Management
IM Power and partners provide a full range of O&M services designed to optimize the performance of a power plant in accordance with local legislation. The O&M strategy takes into account the economic value at each stage of the life cycle of the plant and will determine the timing for planned minor and major overhauls or total refits.
The O&M contract is also designed to provide an incentive for the efficient operation of the plant to combine reliability with long operational life. At the end of the life cycle scrapping the plant is the most economic option prior to replacement with a new technology plant on a different location to reflect the changes in local demand.
Waste to Energy
Our Waste-to-Energy business processes waste to recover material for recycling and then uses the waste to produce electricity for homes and businesses.
Carbon is also captured and can be reprocessed into animal food. We develop every stage of a Waste-to-Energy project, from planning and designing to building and Operation & Maintenance.
Waste-to-Energy is a environmentally low-impact solution that can provide low carbon electricity.
