DOWNERS GROVE, Ill.,
March 18, 2021 /PRNewswire/
-- SWEP, part of Dover (NYSE: DOV), announced the
signing of a multiyear contract with Kvitebjørn Varme AS, to supply
Energy Transfer Stations (ETS) to advance the expansion of district
heating from Tromsø (Norway) based
energy supplier.
Kvitebjørn Varme owns and operates the district heating network
supplying district heating for residential heating, hot water and
street heating for residents, buildings and streets in the city of
Tromsø.
The contract entails the delivery of 25-35 ETS units per year
with the relationship extending beyond supply and delivery, as SWEP
will continue to extend technical expertise to help ensure
satisfactory performance of the ETSs in the district heating
network in Tromsø.
"Apart from a supplier of Energy Transfer Stations, we consider
SWEP a technical resource whose advice and support regarding design
and operation of energy transfer stations we appreciate," said
Geir Magne Olsen, CCO and Head of
Sales and Development for Kvitebjørn Varme.
Kvitebjørn Varme delivers more than 150 GWh of thermal energy
annually, dominated by utilization of excess heat from waste
incineration and the vast remainder from biofuels and electricity.
Hot water is distributed through a network of underground pipes
from central heating plants to the end customers. The ambition is
that 96% of all district heating in Tromsø will be produced by
renewable energy sources by 2023, with the remaining 4% being
generated by electricity.
SWEP began working with Kvitebjørn Varme in 2017 when the new
energy recovery plant in Skattøra was put into operations. As the
expansion of the distribution network grows, SWEP systems will
continue to supply ETS for several years using SWEP brazed plate
heat exchangers and technological know-how after recently signing a
new contract with Kvitebjørn Varme.
