Potential CO2 savings approaching 8,000 tonnes pa proven<\/strong><\/p>\n

Trials running a Bergen gas engine on a blend of green hydrogen and natural gas have been successfully completed at Viscofan, the international meat products processor, at its C\u00e1seda plant in northern Spain last month. It is the first time a Bergen engine has run with hydrogen in a full-scale industrial application. The trial confirmed laboratory tests that the engine performs normally in real-life conditions and that Viscofan can potentially save almost 8,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions per year from its operations.<\/p>\n

In recent years Viscofan has renewed its co-generation installation in C\u00e1seda with the latest Bergen engine technology which capable of running on natural gas and hydrogen in variable percentages.\u00a0The objective of the C\u00e1seda trials was to measure efficiency and reliability of the engines in real-time continuous use.\u00a0Fuel blending was carried out to reach a mixed value of 15% hydrogen and 85% natural gas in an engine of the Bergen type\u00a0B36:45L6AG<\/u><\/a>\u00a0producing 5.5MW of output in combined heat and power (CHP) configuration.\u00a0To carry out these tests, Viscofan\u2019s managers and cogeneration team had the collaboration of a team of Bergen Engines technicians from Norway and the company\u2019s Spanish subsidiary.<\/p>\n

The green hydrogen used was provided by\u00a0Electroqu\u00edmicas de Hernani<\/u><\/a>\u00a0with the support of\u00a0Nippon Gases<\/u><\/a>\u00a0in charge of the temporary installation, transport and supply of the gas.\u00a0A temporary installation of two hydrogen semi-trailers with an approximate capacity each of 4,000 Nm3 of compressed hydrogen at 200 bar, progressively increasing hydrogen flows of 400 Nm3 \/ h were used.\u00a0The use of hydrogen as a fuel significantly and immediately reduces the carbon footprint of the combustion processes, since each cubic meter of natural gas replaced stops emitting 2.15 kg of CO2 into the atmosphere.\u00a0All this equates to a saving of 63 tons of CO2, equivalent to more than 7,660 tons of CO2 per year.<\/p>\n

For Jos\u00e9 Antonio Canales, CEO of the Viscofan Group,\u00a0\u201cThese tests, in addition to being a historic milestone in our decarbonisation project, also represent the confirmation that Viscofan is already prepared to lead the energy transition. Our will and commitment to the consumption of green hydrogen must be accompanied by unresolved challenges such as the production of green hydrogen at a competitive cost and continuous transport to our facilities.<\/p>\n

Jon Erik R\u00f8v, CEO Bergen Engines AS, says\u00a0\u201cWe are very satisfied with the result of this trial and the excellent collaboration with Viscofan. It confirms Bergen Engines\u2019 firm commitment to continue developing the technology necessary to ensure the best efficiency and the use of hydrogen in our engines.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n

About Bergen Engines<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bergen Engines produces medium speed liquid and gas fueled engines and generator sets supplied to a broad range of land based, commercial marine and naval customers. The Bergen name is a watchword for quality and reliability in its field.<\/p>\n

The tradition of engineering in Bergen, Norway, dates back to 1855 when the original company Bergen Mekaniske Verksted (BMV) was founded. In 1946 the company built its first diesel engine and has since commissioned over 7,000 of its iconic liquid and gas fueled engines. More than half of them are still in operation today, such is the quality and reliability of a Bergen engine.<\/p>\n

From 1999, Bergen Engines AS was owned by Rolls-Royce plc. On 31st December 2021, the company was sold to the privately owned engineering and industrial group, Langley Holdings plc. Bergen Engines\u00a0is a member of the group\u2019s\u00a0Power Solutions Division,\u00a0along with the Italian\u00a0Marelli Motori\u00a0and German\u00a0Piller Power Systems\u00a0subsidiaries.<\/p>\n
