CUI Global, Inc. (CUI Global) announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Orbital Gas Systems Ltd. (Orbital) has been awarded a contract by a major UK energy provider to design, produce and commission its first-ever biomethane-to-grid plants for the UK water industry.
The contract calls for the provision of an initial biomethane Grid Entry Unit (GEU) followed by a second unit, both to be delivered in 2020. Each unit is valued at approximately USD 550,000.
The client audited and assessed Orbital’s technical, innovation and support capabilities to create a long-term partnership in providing biomethane solutions. The client awarded these contracts on the strength of Orbital’s 100% success rate in achieving ‘gas-to-grid’ deadlines and its world-class design, manufacturing and technical support facilities.
In addition, Orbital is completing upgrade works on the Poundbury Renewable Energy Plant. Poundbury plant provides enough renewable gas for 56,000 new-build homes in the summer and 4,000 in the winter and was the first plant in the UK to inject renewable gas directly into the local distribution network on a full-scale basis.
