The project will demonstrate a gas-fired, combined cycle cogeneration system at Vetropak Moravian Glass, a bottle manufacturing factory. It replaces a system producing significant waste heat with one where part of the waste heat will be recycled to produce electricity for the factory and the rest will be provided to the local district heating system, reducing coal burned for electricity generation and district heating.
