Climeon Heat Power Production Initiated Onboard Maersk Container Vessel Climeon AB announces the successful integration of the commissioned Heat Power System onboard a Maersk container vessel. Maersk will begin evaluating the waste heat recovery technology’s potential for increasing energy efficiency and strengthening their mission to achieve a 60% reduction in CO2 emissions by 2030. The maritime industry share of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is approximately 3%. “Business as usual” scenarios expecting to result in growth of GHG emissions by 20% or more by 2050, according to Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller Center for Zero Carbon Shipping’s recently published Industry Transition Strategy report. As the largest container logistics company globally, Maersk sees it as their obligation to be a driving force in the decarbonization of long-distance shipping and logistics. The company has set ambitious decarbonization targets and has chosen to evaluate Climeon’s Heat Power technology as a part of this strategic initiative. Climeon’s Heat Power System recovers waste heat, in the form of jacket cooling water and surplus steam, from the vessel’s main engine. The recovered heat is utilized to produce electrical power for the vessel’s grid. This carbon-free power source reduces the required electrical output from the vessel generators, which saves fuel and reduces emissions. “After numerous delays due to Covid-19 restrictions, we are thrilled to begin power production and evaluate the potential onboard Maersk container vessels. We are so grateful for the professional support and genuine enthusiasm that the Maersk team have displayed to ensure the success of this collaboration.” - Fredrik Thoren, Head of Maritime, Climeon The technology automatically and continuously ensures that the power output is optimized for maximum conversion efficiency via the Climeon Live control system. The software provides daily system information and reports, facilitating proactive monitoring of the system, ensuring maximum up-time. The current system installed has the capacity to produce 150kW of carbon-free power, which improves the Energy Efficiency Existing Ship Index (EEXI) of the vessel. Climeon offers a modular scalable system that can deliver 150kw to 1MW of clean power output on a single vessel and can reduce annual CO2 emissions by up to 3500 tonnes, equivalent to an annual fuel savings of 1000 tonnes.

A listed investment company advised by Victory Hill Capital Advisors LLP has revealed a £78m programme commitment to fund flexible power generation projects in the UK. The projects are located in Nottinghamshire and County Durham. VH Global Sustainable Energy Opportunities' investment will fund the construction of two combined heat and power plants which bring together high-efficiency, gas-fired engines technology with a carbon capture and re-use system to provide a clean, net-zero, dependable electricity service for the UK. The combined capacity will be 45MW, with assets at the ready-to-build stage, with full planning permissions and commercialisation plans in place. The first plant will begin construction in the fourth quarter of 2021 in Nottinghamshire, with a second plant in County Durham expected to be begin construction by the second quarter of 2022. Richard Lum, co-CIO of Victory Hill Capital Advisors LLP, said: "The UK harbours ambitious plans to hit net zero carbon emissions by 2050 and is rightly increasing capacity for renewable power generation. "At the same time, fossil fuel generators continue to leave the system. While admirable, the situation risks creating a perfect storm for system interruptions if supply from weather-dependent renewable sources is unable keep-up with accelerating demand for electricity in the coming decades. "GSEO's aim is to ensure the UK electricity grid can meet growing demand and keep the lights on without resorting to excessive levels of harmful fossil fuels, as it becomes increasingly reliant on renewable power. "These projects will provide a highly efficient, flexible source of power that can be called upon when needed, and at short notice, to plug any shortfall in power generation from wind or solar." Victory Hill will be partnering with Landmark Power Holdings Ltd. a specialised developer and operator of gas-fired power plants. Michael Avison, chief executive of Landmark Power Holdings Ltd, said: "Our organisations share the same perspectives on the UK's power markets. "The Landmark Power team have also benefitted from the support of Swedish company Climeon, to help design and optimize the UK's first decarbonised gas fired power plants that are able to materially support the grid through the provision of both base load power, as well as supplying the balancing and capacity markets.

Climeon wins first order within geothermal in Taiwan Climeon has won a first order within geothermal heat power in Taiwan, a new geographical market for the company. The order comes from Baseload Power Taiwan and includes Climeon Heat Power systems as well as design and consultancy services for the surrounding power plant. The total order value amounts to about SEK 41 million. Climeon has won a first order within geothermal heat power in Taiwan. The order comes from Baseload Power Taiwan and the target is to deliver the Heat Power modules by the end of the year. Associated design and consultancy services will be delivered as the project progresses. The power plant is expected to be one of the first commercial geothermal heat power plants in the country. We are proud to continue our global expansion through a first order in Taiwan. The geological conditions combined with financial incentives for green electricity production makes Taiwan an interesting market with great potential for Climeon, says Thomas Öström, CEO of Climeon. - Taiwan is a prioritized market for Baseload Capital and we are very happy be able to start executing on a first power plant in the country, says Van Hoang, President of Baseload Power Taiwan. Climeon has together with Baseload Capital worked actively in Taiwan since the beginning of 2019 to establish collaborations with local businesses, landowners and local authorities. In this first project the modular Heat Power plant will be built in eastern Taiwan. Apart from the Climeon Heat Power systems, the order from Baseload Power Taiwan includes control software, design-, consultancy-, and procurement services connected to the building of the power plant. The associated services amount to approximately 40 percent of the total order value. - Our vision is to deliver an increasingly complete power plant solution to our customers, continues Thomas Öström. In addition to our modules, we also offer the surrounding services that are part of a holistic solution. - Through a broader customer offering, including consultancy services, we have negotiated significantly better payment terms. This helps to strengthen our financial position, concludes Thomas Öström. Taiwan is, like Japan and the west coast of the USA, located in the “ring of fire”, an arcuate area along the Pacific Ocean coastal areas, which is known for high seismological activity and thereby also great resources of geothermal energy. Despite this, there are few active commercial geothermal power plants in the country. The greatest potential for extraction of geothermal energy is found along the eastern coast of Taiwan.

Climeon's first installation in Japan operational Climeon’s first Heat Power module in a geothermal power plant in Japan has successfully been commissioned and is now producing electricity. In 2018, Climeon won its first order in Japan. Since then, the company has established a subsidiary in the country, begun the installation of two power plants, and now also put the first Heat Power module into operation. - This is an incredibly important milestone for Climeon. Japan is one of the toughest geographical markets to enter. I am incredibly proud that we, together with Baseload Power Japan, managed to get a power plant up and running this fast, compared to how long it typically takes in Japan, says Thomas Öström, CEO of Climeon. - We are now contributing to the energy transition in Japan for real. Every kilowatt hour produced to the grid contributes to transforming the Japanese energy system, says Jack (Masao) Watanabe, President of Climeon Japan K.K. The first installation is located in Kyushu, where Climeon's Heat Power module is connected to an existing power plant and recovers the geothermal waste heat. - The fact that the first power plant now produces electricity is an important key to our continued rollout. Now we have proven to local partners and to our investors that Climeon and Baseload can produce fossil-free electricity in Japan, Masahiro Ito, Representative Director of Baseload Power Japan K.K. Japan is a highly prioritized geographical market for Climeon, due to the country’s favorable conditions for geothermal electricity production. After the accident at the Fukushima nuclear power plant in 2011, Japan's domestic energy production has decreased significantly, which is why the majority of all primary energy is imported and most of it is fossil. There are many hot springs around the country, from which geothermal heat power can be extracted. Today, only just over 2 percent of its known geothermal energy resources are utilized. The price of electricity generated from geothermal heat power in Japan today is just over SEK 3 per kWh, which is about eight times higher than the electricity price in Sweden.
