The Belgian government has announced a major tender titled “RECTIF: La fourniture d’un groupe CHP industriel fonctionnant à l’hydrogène en basé sur un moteur à piston,” highlighting a significant step forward in the hydrogen industry.
Published on December 23, 2024, this tender invites proposals for the supply of an industrial Combined Heat and Power (CHP) unit powered by a hydrogen-driven piston engine. Interested parties have until the submission deadline to present their proposals. This tender represents a crucial development in advancing hydrogen technology, aiming to showcase its viability and efficiency in industrial energy applications.
The primary objective of this tender is to procure a state-of-the-art CHP unit that runs on hydrogen using a piston engine, integrating both heat and power generation for industrial purposes. This initiative seeks to demonstrate the potential of hydrogen as a clean and efficient energy source, reducing carbon emissions and making a significant contribution to the transition towards renewable energy solutions.
To achieve this, the tender specifications emphasize the need for a highly efficient engine design that can operate reliably under industrial conditions. The unit must be capable of maximizing energy output while minimizing fuel consumption, which is a key factor in reducing operational costs and environmental impact. Applicants are required to provide detailed technical plans that illustrate how their proposed CHP unit meets these efficiency criteria.
