The contract-agreement on implementation of the international project “Technical re-equipment of the boiler house on the 14A Romana Kupchinsky Str., in Ternopil”, between the Public utility provider of the heat supply network “Ternopilgorteplokommunenergo” of the Ternopil City Council and the “Ukratominstruments” Corporation, was concluded on November 28, 2017. The Nordic Environmental Finance Corporation (NEFCO) and the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida) funded the project.
The contract-agreement provides for the re-equipment of an industrial water-heating gas boiler of the KVG-7.56 series in a pellet boiler, by replacing three existing gas burners with three new pellet burners.
The works on the boiler plant re-equipment are to be completed before starting the heating season, namely- 2018-2019 and “Ukratominstruments” Corporation is considered to carry out design works, supply the necessary systems and equipment, install at the Customer’s site, commissioning, put into operation and conduct training of the operating personnel of “Ternopilgorteplokommunenergo”.
In the framework of the signed agreement, on the eve of Holidays, namely, on December 21, 2017, the kick-off meeting (constituent) was held in Ternopil.
The team of the Contractor (“Ukratominstruments” Corporation), together with representatives of subcontractors present at the meeting, got to know better the Customer’s management team (PUP “TernopilgorTKE”).
Participants of the meeting visited the boiler room on the 14A Romana Kupchinsky Str., had the opportunity to ask questions about each other’s experiences and clarify the rights and responsibilities on the project.
The project of re-equipping the boiler house in Ternopil is a pilot, since the conversion of gas boilers from KVG to biofuel, without changing the design of the boiler itself, has not yet been fulfilled, and will certainly become a new interesting acquisition of the “Ukratominstruments” Corporation, which, against the background of the state program for reducing gas consumption, due to renewable energy sources, will have a chance to be continued.
