Recieved an order of Mini-DTEC Project at Masyu Hot Spring in Teshikaga Town, Hokkaido
Tokyo, Japan−February 19, 2013
Mini-DTEC was authorized by Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry as the first renewable power generating facility using hot spring thermal energy in Hokkaido.
Mini-DTEC Project at Masyu Hot Spring in Teshikaga Town, Hokkaido Xenesys Inc. received an order of Mini-DTEC which is the small size discharged thermal energy conversion system, developed by Xenesys, from Seiyu Co., Ltd. (Affiliate Company of Kokusyokankoukai Corporation Ltd.) for Masyu Hot Spring Power Generation Project in Teshikaga Town, Hokkaido. On 19th February 2013, .Mini-DTEC was authorized by Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry as the first renewable power generating facility using hot spring thermal energy in Hokkaido. Mini-DTEC will be assembled, delivered and installed at the project site by August 2013, and then it will start demonstrational operation from September 2013. Mini-DTEC is the power generating facility, which was developed and unitized by Xenesys with our unique know-hows especially for all welled plate heat exchanger, turbine generator and cycle system optimization. Not only hot spring thermal heat but also industrial waste heat of below 200 degree Celsius could be utilized in this power generation unit with the maximum rating output power of 100kW. Hot spring water of 97 degree Celsius and 500 liters per minute will be utilized to provide power of 60 to 80kW in this Mini-DTEC Project in Masyu Hot Spring. After some of the thermal energy is consumed for power generation, the hot spring water with decreased temperature will be complexly utilized for hot spring, greenhouse culture and facility heating system, etc. In addition, electrical power generated by Mini-DTEC will be connected to the existing power grid system of Hokkaido Electric Power Co., Inc. and sold at rates set by Feed-in Tariff Scheme of Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry. Xenesys will make our utmost effort continuously in this field to secure stable energy from renewable energy generated by using hot spring thermal energy and/or industrial waste heat.
