Vegetable oil generator

Autonomy, savings

The ability to use various straight vegetable oils or recycled oils to supply a motor allows us to adapt to local economic realities.

The variety of straight vegetable oils lets you choose your fuel depending on the area where the equipment is installed, as well as on market prices.

Natural plant oils carburant are as efficient as diesel injection, the engine while running with Bio Oil should be modified to use natural vegetable oils (Rapeseed oil, palm oil, Jatropha oil, coconut oil, soybean oil, sunseed oil, sunflower oil…).

Performance is identical and pollution in the exhaust is in favor of vegetable oils.

These are the three half-hourly periods of highest demand on the UK grid, which are identified at theend of each winter. Generators that can fire up quickly and help to meet demand during these half hours can earn a lot of money in a short period of time.

Prolonged life of your generator

Vegetable oils contain no lead and no sulfur. They have a greater viscosity rate, which means better lubrication and therefore less wear on the parts, leading to longer life for your generator.

A healthier solution for your staff

Vegetable oils do not contain lead, benzene or sulfur, to lower the rate of carcinogenic particles associated with diesel.

Bi-fuel

The GELEC BiOil system lets you switch from straight vegetable oil to diesel and vice-versa.

Optimise your revenue and reduce your costs by careful management with our Bio Oil   technology.
As with a power plant, these generators could sell  energy on the open market. This earns them a price per MWh given over to electricity suppliers or intermediaries with whom they hold a contract. These contracts can run for one to many years and vary with each generator on the way the price paid relates to market price at the time.

Short Term Operating Reserve (STOR) payments :

The revenue streams available for doing so include :

Availability payments based on the number of MWs a supplier commits to STOR and the number of hours they are commited for. The price is set by regular auctions.
Utilisation payments based on the number of hours a producer is actually called on to generate in STOR and also set by auction.

RO and ROCs  :  Renewables Obligation Certificates

They exist because of the Renewables Obligation (RO), which requires electricity suppliers to generate an increasing percentage of their power from renewables. To do this, they purchase ROCs from renewable generators or from the ROCs market.

Certain bioliquid generators qualify for ROCs like the Bio Oil Technology of GELEC.
