Technology - Benefits<br />
Flexible installation<br />
• The REG system allows for some large distances between the location of<br />
the heat exchanger (Waste Heat Oil Heater) and the OEC.<br />
• This distance does not significantly affect the performance of the OEC.<br />

<strong>Ormat</strong>’s Experience – The Duke Energy Pipeline<br />
• Developer: EnPower, an<br />
independent power<br />
producer (IPP) owned by<br />
Pristine Power and Enmax<br />
• An agreement to develop<br />
five 5-MW REG projects on<br />
five compressor stations at<br />
the T-south mainline<br />
• Currently two projects<br />
(Station 6A 150 Mile House<br />
and Savona) are under<br />
construction based on a<br />
long term PPA with BC<br />
Hydro as part of the utility’s<br />
“Clean Energy Program”<br />
