Evonik power plant Lünen - STEAG Energy Services GmbH

Summary I
The necessary space of a power plant in Europe is governed by
the following aspects:
typically no green field but brown field projects
normally erection of one or max two new big 750 MW units, not up to
six
less predesigned lay out
supplier independent design, meeting the possibilities of different
manufacturers
Typical area for an additional 750 MW power plant on an existing
site is 12ha (app.30 acres) including coal yard for 10 day storage
without switchyard and other infrastructure)
Extreme examples show that also 2 x 660MW are possible in this
area

Summary II
Typical area for an additional 750 MW power plant on an existing
site is 12ha (app.30 acres) including coal yard for 10 day storage
without switchyard and other infrastructure)
In general the necessary space for the core components are the
same in India and Europe.
Major differences can be derived due to:
two path instead of one path design
other ash storage
pre cooling lakes and water reservoirs
local switch yards
spare part storage
preassembly areas and lay down areas
higher investigated flue gas treatment systems in Europe
bigger coal storage
