Konin Power Plant
Konin power plant was constructed in the 1950s, and it is the oldest lignite-fired power plant in Poland and within the ZE „PAK” SA Group. Besides it supplies heat energy for the town of Konin.
At present, Konin power plant operates 8 utility boilers and 7 turbine generator units. The heat production system of the power plant is split between the collector section and the heat generation section.
The collector section is composed of six boilers (two EKM boilers and two EKM boilers upgraded to a hybrid burning system (HUS), each with a capacity of 130 tonnes of steam per hour, two modern OB-230p tower-type steam generators, each with a capacity of 280 tonnes of steam per hour, equipped with a wet flue-gas desulphurisation system, and five turbine generator units (28-megawatt strong TG-1 of Skoda type, 55-megawatt strong TG-2 of Escher Wyss type, modern 65-megawatt strong TG-4 thermal condensing turbine generator unit of 7CK60 type, and two turbine generator sets of TK-50 type, each 50 megawatts strong).
The modernised units (TG-4, TG-6, K-5, 6, 7, 8, IMOS) have been furnished with Procontrol, a control and automation system manufactured by ABB.
The installed thermal power capacity of all the heat generating units operated by the Konin power plant is 477MWt (410Gcal).
The heat generation section of the plant consists of two power units, each of 120 megawatts capacity.
The power plant has a once-through cooling cycle consisting of five lakes in the Konin region that are interconnected by means of a system of channels.
