Overview
When Florim’s existing gas turbine no longer met the electrical and thermal demands of an increase in tile production, this world-class ceramic manufacturer commissioned Centrax to install a CX300 generator set at their site in Mordano, Italy.
With the repowered CHP plant, Florim not only benefits from an increase in power, but with the generator’s 35% efficiency, and lower emission levels, the upgrade has been made more profitable for the customer and is kinder to the environment. Not only this, Florim benefits from Centrax’s support from its nearby Italian service centre in Sassuolo, ensuring the generator set remains in optimal condition to keep the equipment reliable and profitable well into the future.
