HEP Group once again relies on cooperation with MSR-Electronic from Lower Bavaria<\/strong><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

Using energy once, profiting twice - that is the principle of combined heat and power<\/strong> (CHP). Whereas electricity and usable heat were usually generated separately so far, cogeneration combines these processes. The result is that less fuel is required overall.<\/p>\n

Its application offers enormous potential for climate protection<\/strong> and conservation of resources<\/strong>. The increased use contributes to reducing CO2<\/sub> emissions and lowering the demand for primary energy.<\/p>\n

HEP TE-TO Sisak (HEP Group) is a Croatian energy company in the Sisak Moslavina district<\/strong>, south of Zagreb. It has been engaged in the generation, distribution and supply of electricity for more than a century.<\/p>\n

For the last decades it also deals with the distribution and supply of thermal energy and natural gas.<\/p>\n

The entire thermal power plant consists of various production units<\/strong>. The highly efficient combined heat and power unit EL-TO, Unit C. This is powered by natural gas, generates electricity of 235 MW and a thermal output of 50 MWt.<\/p>\n

Natural gas is an ideal fuel for CHP plants<\/strong> and at the same time a naturally occurring gas consisting largely of methane gas.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the gas-processing industry, gas warning systems from MSR-Electronic<\/a> can reduce fire and explosion risks immensely, as they provide very early warning of dangerous situations.<\/p>\n

Stationary gas detectors from MSR-Electronic for safe methane gas monitoring<\/strong><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

MSR-Electronic develops and produces reliable fixed gas detectors. The permanent monitoring and storage of the measured values serve the primary explosion protection<\/strong> and thus the safety of human life and equipment.<\/p>\n

Once again, after a carbon monoxide gas detection system in 2016, the HEP Group relies on MSR-Electronic and this time on a methane gas monitoring application.<\/p>\n
