generator unit at the Ethylene-Polyethylene plant in Azerbaijan's
Sumgayit city as part of COP29 activities, Head of Uniper's
Azerbaijan Office Rashad Huseynli told reporters, Trend reports.
"This is a major SOCAR-Uniper project aimed at improving energy
efficiency for the Azerkimya Production Union (SOCAR). The project
is currently undergoing final testing, and an official launch
ceremony for the electricity and steam generation unit may take
place during COP29," Huseynli pointed out.
He explained that the aim of building the unit is to boost the
efficiency and production capacity of the steam generation complex,
which keeps the plant's lights on.
This project is a big fish in the pond when it comes to boosting
the energy efficiency of industrial plants across the nation.

venture in 2016 to implement the steam generator unit construction
project at the Ethylene-Polyethylene plant. The project aims to
increase the design capacity of the steam generation complex from
32 MW to 65 MW. This was achieved by installing an additional
turbogenerator and modernizing the existing technological
system.
