Turboden Organic Rankine Cycle

Project Scope

The Estate was using large amounts of electricity and gas due to having multiple facilities including a 130 room hotel with leisure centre attached.

Novalux designed a bespoke system comprised of a 3.5MWth Sugimat thermal oil boiler and 700kWe Turboden Organic Rankine Cycle. The system is fuelled with end of life straw bales, used on the motor circuit during the a festival in addition to waste wood produced from activities on site.

The combined heat and power system will replace fossil fuel use in the estate house, hotel and leisure centre whilst helping the business to make savings on their waste removal, gas and electricity bills.
