| 释义 |
The T2 Energy Centre is a biomass-fuelled combined heating and power (CHP) station at Heathrow Airport in London, England, which opened in December 2012.[1] It provides electricity and heat to Terminal 2 and Terminal 5. OperationThe energy centre, which has a CHP base heating load of 9 MW (thermal) and a biomass CHP power output of 1.8 MW (electric),[2] took its first delivery of woodchip fuel in November 2012. The Energy Centre uses 25,000 tonnes of woodchips a year, which is sourced within a 100-mile radius of Heathrow airport from sustainable woodlands such as the WWT London Wetland Centre in Barnes, London and Richmond Park[3] in order to reduce haulage requirements, costs and CO{{sub|2}} emissions.[4] The resulting ash is recycled and used to make fertiliser for local agriculture and manufacturing, eliminating the need to send the ash to landfill. Heathrow claims that the wood fuel process will enable it to save at least 13,000 tonnes of CO{{sub|2}} emissions per year, compared with producing the same output from natural gas, and to reduce its carbon footprint by 34 per cent by 2020.[5] The electricity generated will be fed back into the local grid. AwardIn September 2012, the Chartered Institute of Purchasing & Supply awarded Heathrow Airport Limited for 'Best Contribution to Corporate Responsibility' with regard to the energy plant.[6] References1. ^{{Cite press release |title=Heathrow’s T2 new Energy Centre that opened December 2012 |publisher=LC Energy |url=http://www.lcenergy.co.uk/clients |date=2013 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://archive.is/20131212102022/http://www.lcenergy.co.uk/clients |archivedate=12 December 2013 |df=dmy-all }} 2. ^{{Cite press release|title=Creating Renewable Heat and Energy for Terminal 2 |publisher=Morgansindall.com |year=2013 |url=http://professionalservices.morgansindall.com/projects/energy-infrastructure-project-uk/|accessdate=5 November 2013}} 3. ^{{Cite press release|title=Heathrow Terminal 2 to be powered by woodchip biomass – with dubious and extravagant "green" claims |publisher=Airport Watch|url=http://www.airportwatch.org.uk/2014/03/heathrow-terminal-2-to-be-powered-by-woodchip-biomass-with-dubious-and-extravagant-green-claims/ |date=2014}} 4. ^{{Cite press release |title=LC Energy wins 15 year woodchip contract at London Heathrow Airport |publisher=LC Energy |url=http://www.lcenergy.co.uk/news/58-lc-energy-awarded-fuel-supply-contract |date=10 January 2011 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://archive.is/20131018032021/http://www.lcenergy.co.uk/news/58-lc-energy-awarded-fuel-supply-contract |archivedate=18 October 2013 |df=dmy-all }} 5. ^{{Cite press release|title=Heathrow's ground-breaking sustainable energy centre recognised in awards|publisher=Heathrow Airport Limited|date=28 September 2012|url=http://mediacentre.heathrowairport.com/Press-releases/HEATHROW-S-GROUND-BREAKING-SUSTAINABLE-ENERGY-CENTRE-RECOGNISED-IN-AWARDS-2e9.aspx|accessdate=20 December 2012|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20121118084248/http://mediacentre.heathrowairport.com/Press-releases/Heathrow-s-ground-breaking-sustainable-energy-centre-recognised-in-awards-2e9.aspx|archivedate=18 November 2012|df=dmy-all}} 6. ^{{Cite press release|author=ADS Advance|date=2 October 2012|title=Heathrow's T2 energy centre wins CIPS award|publisher=ADS Advance |url=http://www.adsadvance.co.uk/heathrow-s-t2-energy-centre-wins-cips-award.html |accessdate=30 January 2013}} External links
