Greenergy has chosen Peter Brotherhood to supply a condensing steam turbine which will form part of a combined cycle power system at the pharmaceutical factory based near Budapest in Hungary

Project developer Greenergy has chosen Peterborough, UK-based engineering company Peter Brotherhood Limited to supply a condensing steam turbine which will form part of a combined cycle power system at the Human pharmaceutical factory based near Budapest, Hungary Peter Brotherhood will design and manufacture the 1,360 kW steam turbine - worth almost £1 million - and deliver it to the factory in September 2005

The condensing steam turbine will comprise a multi-stage steam turbine, an integral condenser, a generator, a cyclone steam separator and automatic start equipment.

The complete turbine will be tested on steam at Peter Brotherhood's engineering facility prior to despatch.

The combined cycle power plant will be owned and operated by Greenergy.

As well heating the factory the system will supply power to the national grid.

The Hungarian government encourages the building of smaller power plant units (6 MW or under) by offering them higher rates for exported electricity than larger plants.

By using a steam turbine in the combined cycle process, Greenergy will earn income from the exported electricity.

Colin Lake, Regional Sales Manager at Peter Brotherhood said: "We were awarded this contract because of the technical support we provided to the customer in the early stages of the project.

The combination of the best price and efficiency were also contributing factors." Peter Brotherhood designs and manufactures steam turbines and turbo-alternator sets from 1 to 40 MW.

The company has extensive experience in providing turbine systems for combined cycle and cogeneration applications as well as for marine applications, FPSO vessels, district heating schemes, refineries, waste heat recovery and energy from waste plants.
