"Double Carbon" I ABB joins hands to open up the mountain and inject new impetus into the energy revolution
"In the Indonesian SMGP project, Kaishan Group increased the efficiency value of 97% required by the original project from 97% to 98.37% by using ABB synchronous generators. The use of this efficient solution will reduce CO2 emissions by about 1,310 tons per year (equivalent to the annual carbon emissions of 255 households' electricity consumption). ”

What is geothermal energy?
Geothermal energy is the huge amount of heat stored in the Earth's interior, which is referred to as Earth's internal heat.
Do you know where TA's energy comes from?
The Earth's internal heat mainly comes from two aspects: the heat stored in the nuclear mantle during the transformation of gravitational potential energy during the formation of the Earth, and the heat generated by the decay of radioactive isotopes in the shell mantle. Indonesia, which consists of about 17,508 islands, is a multi-volcano and earthquake-rich country and is expected to have the world's largest geothermal energy reserves, about 27 billion watts, accounting for 40% of the global total.
As a new energy source and future energy source, geothermal energy can play a major role in the implementation of the "dual carbon" goal. Indonesia is one of the most important regions in the geothermal market in the international market, and it is located at the junction of two active volcanic belts, which is ideal for harnessing geothermal energy. ABB's customer Kaishan Group is one of the companies that has helped Indonesia use this important energy source and has built several geothermal power plants in Indonesia.
Kaishan Group mainly uses ABB's two synchronous generators, let's take a look at the hardcore characteristics of TAs.
——The generator adopts modular design, takes up small space, and is easy to maintain;
—— The rotor and stator are made of high-quality insulation materials, vacuum pressure impregnation paint and CX painting anti-corrosion treatment to ensure stable operation in harsh environments such as humid heat and corrosive gases.
——Customized air-water cooling and air-air cooling system design to ensure stable operation under high load operating conditions;
—— Customized high-efficiency design (AMS up to 98% or more) can achieve more power output under the same geothermal energy consumption, achieving higher economic efficiency.
——High mechanical strength, can easily cope with complex geothermal conditions.
ABB is highly supportive of the energy transition, leveraging its expertise and extensive industry experience, from early product selection, to mid-term design and production, and final after-sales guarantee. Making full use of ABB's high-quality resources from China and the world, it provides practical solutions for power plants to reduce carbon emissions, and comprehensively helps Kaishan Group achieve more efficient, reliable and economical operation.
ABB, together with Kaishan Group, is helping to create a low-carbon and greener future, so that the world can use the electricity generated by clean renewable energy, making the future application of renewable energy more exciting.
