Notice Information

Notice Title

Controls and BMS package to enable the operation and monitoring of the CHP LTHW heat recovery system

Notice Description

The CHP LTHW Heat Recovery Project is to enable heat generated from the CHP as low temperature hot water to offset steam production used for heating and hot water within the Plowright building. Utilising the available LTHW provides a significant energy saving and delivers maximum efficiency from the CHP that operates onsite. Existing controls and BMS operate on the Schneider Electric platform. For continuity and standardisation, it is required that the controls and BMS package to operate and monitor the heat recovery system is via the existing Schneider system.
