Trigeneration is the conversion of a fuel into three useful energy products: electricity, hot water or steam, and chilled water. A trigeneration system is a cogeneration system extended with an absorption chiller that uses some of the heat to produce chilled water for air-conditioning of buildings and building complexes.
With a Wärtsilä trigeneration power plant you will reach the same output with notably less fuel input compared to separate power and heat generation.
Wärtsilä power plants have ready-made solutions for trigeneration which can easily be adapted to different market and customer requirements and delivered within tight time schedules.
Benefits
The trigeneration system makes utilization of the engine CHP plant highly efficient throughout the annual seasons and through changes in the local climate. The plant can flexibly run at high total efficiencies, producing heat and cooling for airport terminals, office and building complexes, housing areas, etc., and can interchange smoothly between supplying heating and/or cooling. At the same time it supplies the needed electrical power.

CAMPOFRÍO ALIMENTACIÓN S.A. is a leading international company within the food sector. It produces meat products which, for the production process, requires significant amounts of heat, in the form of steam and hot water, industrial cooling and electrical energy.
In 1996, with the purpose of reducing energy costs on the production processes and equipping the company with flexible installations in order to meet both present and future energy needs in a secure and efficient manner, GUASCOR ENERGIA went into a joint venture with Campofrío in order to construct and operate a Trigeneration plant - producing heat, cold and electrical energy - .
The Trigeneration plant operates 24 hours per day, seven days per week with a total of 8,700 hours of operation annually.
The installation incorporates four turbo-charged gas engines, each one rated at 3 MW, with a total installed power of 12 MW.
To cover the cold demand on the production process, the trigeneration plant is fitted with an ammonia - water absorption machine, which runs off saturated steam obtained from the heat recovered from the engines' exhaust gases.

Our 4-100 MW combined heat and power (CHP) plants incorporate both power and heat generation. The system for heat generation, producing either low-pressure steam, hot water or both, trigeneration, etc. is optimized for the customer%u2019s needs and requirements.
The total plant efficiencies rise to even above 90%. Our CHP plants can run on various natural gas and liquid fuel qualities, also liquid biofuels, while maintaining low emissions and high efficiency.
Modular design
The modular design of our CHP plants enables fast-track delivery anywhere in the world.
Prefabricated, functionally pretested modules guarantee consistent quality and performance and make on-site installation simply a matter of assembling and connecting the modules.
