Bridgestone Associates was the technical partner on this USTDA funded study. Bridgestone performed a detailed technical and economic evaluation of the rehabilitation of an existing 100 MW combined heat and power (CHP) plant and district heating system serving a large industrial complex, a hospital, a sports complex and approximately 200,000 local city inhabitants with steam, hot water and electricity. Once rehabilitation of the existing plant was determined to be impractical, Bridgestone prepared a detailed feasibility study on a new biomass and natural gas fired CHP plant to serve the same users and sell excess power to the Ukraine grid.
