The Dradenau Combined Heat and Power Plant project of the ARGE Uniper-ENKA Dradenau partnership in Germany, is progressing steadily. This strategically significant project for Hamburg aims to replace the coal-fired CHP plant in Wedel with a new and environment-friendly CHP plant in Dradenau (“KWK-Anlage Dradenau”).
The project is based on 2x2x1 configuration equipped with two Siemens SGT-800 gas turbines, one steam turbine and two heat recovery steam generators (HRSG) with one additional gas steam generator. When completed, the plant will achieve an electrical output of 180 MW and 260 MW district heating capacity.
As of the end of 2024, the project has achieved 70% overall progress, with 840 personnel, including subcontractors, currently working on the project. A total of 637,935 person-hours and 130 days were worked on the project without any lost time incident (LTI).
Work across all disciplines will continue throughout 2025, with full construction completion scheduled for the second half of the year.
