Energy Edge ZC

Energy Edge ZC, s.r.o. is a Slovak company founded on 30 January 2010 with the purpose of building a thermal power plant that generates electricity and heat by combusting waste biomass and cereal straw. The plant was officially approved for use (kolaudácia) on 17 December 2013, when regular operation began. The production facility consists of several main technological units: fuel preparation (fuel storage areas and transport routes to the boiler), a boiler for combusting other waste biomass and cereal straw, a condensing steam turbine with steam extraction, and associated equipment for cooling the condenser and operating fluids. Key technical parameters include a boiler with a nominal fuel heat input of 25 MWt, nominal steam output of 40 t/h, nominal steam pressure of 6.9 ± 0.2 MPa and nominal steam temperature of 470 ± 8 °C; the steam turbine has a nominal turboset output of 11.145 MWe and nominal turbine speed of 6048 rpm. The biomass thermal power plant meets all requirements for producing electricity and heat from renewable energy sources under Act No. 309/2009 Coll. as amended, and its heat production source also complies with emission requirements under applicable Slovak legislation. Emission compliance is demonstrated by authorised emission measurements, the results of which are published on the company's website in accordance with § 33 a) of Act No. 17/1992 Coll. on the environment. The primary energy factor calculated under Decree No. 308/2016 Coll. of the Ministry of Economy of the Slovak Republic for the district heating system is fP-CZT = 0.217 (average values for the 2016 balance period). Emission measurement protocols listed on the site include measurements from 13 January 2016 (CO, NOx, TOC), 4 October 2016 (TZL), 21 October 2019 (TZL, CO, NOx, TOC) and 9 October 2019 for the pellet plant (TOC, TZL). The company is a private Slovak entity focused on renewable energy generation, specifically biomass-based combined heat and power.

Energy Edge ZC, s.r.o. was founded on 30 January 2010 with the goal of building a thermal power plant that would generate electricity and heat by burning waste biomass and cereal straw. The construction was completed and the plant was officially approved for use (kolaudácia) on 17 December 2013, marking the start of regular operation. The production equipment comprises several main technological units: fuel preparation (fuel storage areas and transport routes to the boiler), a boiler for combusting other waste biomass and cereal straw, a condensing steam turbine with steam extraction, and associated equipment for cooling the condenser and operating fluids.
