FR0013030152) leader in industrial ecology, is delighted to
announce the signature of a 3-year framework agreement with the
German company 2G Energietechnik GmbH for the supply of
cogeneration units dedicated to the production of green electricity
from mine gas in France and Belgium.
Thanks to this partnership with 2G, a leading manufacturer of
decentralized energy production systems in Europe, La Française de
l'Énergie benefits from competitive commercial conditions with a
guaranteed fixed price for the duration of the contract and major
logistic related advantages such as free storage of engines for
several months and dedicated production lines for major orders.
These improved terms and conditions will allow the Group to
reinforce its capacity of development and improve the profitability
of its future production sites.
A framework agreement covering 25 new cogeneration
units
Covering the full scope of the Group's needs (engine,
cogeneration kits and soundproofed containers), this agreement also
secures the supply of cogeneration units for the deployment of new
sites, of which 37.5 MW are scheduled in Hauts-de-France and
Wallonia.
To this end, the delivery schedule of 7 cogeneration units (10.5
MW) has been confirmed at the agreed terms and conditions, for an
installation planned over the next 12 months in Béthune, Avion and
Anderlues. The 18 additional cogeneration units (27 MW) will be
installed on the new sites in Hauts-de-France as soon as the
approvals from the administration will be delivered.
Benefiting from an enhanced execution capacity and a secure
development plan, La Française de l'Énergie confirms its ambition
to actively participate in Europe's ecological and energy
transition through the launch of new production sites of green
energy.

About Combined Heat and Power (CHP)
The simultaneous generation of mechanical energy and useful heat
is called combined heat and power (CHP) generation. While the
mechanical energy is converted directly into electricity, the heat
can be used to heat, cool or generate steam. This means that,
instead of escaping into the atmosphere, the heat resulting from
electricity generation is put to good use, making CHP technology
efficient and environmentally friendly. Up to 40 percent of primary
energy is saved. CO2 emissions fall by up to 60 percent com-pared
to conventional electricity generation in large power plants.
About 2G Energy AG (http://www.2-g.com)
2G Energy AG is an internationally leading manufacturer of
combined heat and power plants (CHP) for the decentralized
provision of power and heat on the basis of gas motors driven by
natural gas, biomethane, biogas, sewage gas, landfill gas or
hydrogen. The portfolio includes plants with an electrical output
of 20 to 4,500 kW. The customer base ranges from farming to
municipalities, the housing industry, commercial enterprises,
medium-sized industry and large industry to the energy sector.
In addition to its headquarters in Heek, in the Münsterland
region of Germany, with development and production. 2G is also
represented in several European countries through its own
subsidiaries. Since it was founded in 1995, 2G has commissioned
more than 6,000 plants worldwide.
Through combined heat and power generation, they reach overall
efficiency levels of be-tween 85% and far above 90%. 2G is
consistently expanding its technological leadership through
continuous research and development work in gas motor technology
for natural gas, biogas and synthesis gas applications (e.g.
hydrogen). In addition to designing and manufacturing CHP plants,
the company offers full solutions, from planning and installation
to servicing and maintenance services. CHP plants are increasingly
gaining importance in intelligent networked energy systems, called
virtual power plants, due to their decentralization,
controllability and predictable availability.
