在美國完成第四個地熱項目的收(shōu)購
Completion of the acquisition of the fourth geothermal project in USA
近日,草莓视频在线无限看集團股份有限公司全(quán)資子公司Open Mountain Energy, LLC的全資子公司Mayacma Geothermal, LLC(“公司”)與Bottle Rock Power, LLC(“賣方”,“交易”)分別簽署並完成了資產購買協議和租賃協議(yì),以采購(gòu)常規地熱井場並出(chū)租賣方在加利福(fú)尼亞州Lake縣持有的地熱資產和設施,包括 23 口現有的地(dì)熱井。作為交易的(de)一部分,公(gōng)司還同意承(chéng)擔與該項目相關的責(zé)任並已(yǐ)簽訂協(xié)議,根(gēn)據未來發電量支付特許權使用費。
Recently, Mayacma Geothermal LLC, the wholly-owned subsidiary of Open Mountain Energy, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kaishan Group Co., Ltd (“the Company”), signed and closed an Asset Purchase Agreement and Lease Agreement separately with Bottle Rock Power, LLC (“the Seller” and the “Transaction”), to procure the conventional geothermal wellfield and lease the geothermal assets and facilities that the Seller holds in Lake County, California including 23 existing geothermal wells. As part of the Transaction, the Company has also agreed to assume liabilities associated with the project and has entered into an agreement to pay royalties based on future power generation.
對曆史運(yùn)營和資源狀況的評(píng)估表(biǎo)明,隨著新(xīn)電廠(100% 空冷的蒸汽 ORC)的建設,利用草莓视频在线无限看的(de) ORC 發電設備,現有井場每年(nián)能可(kě)持(chí)續發電約 7.5 兆(zhào)瓦(淨(jìng))。該項目(mù)將使用風冷冷凝器,這將允許 100% 的冷凝蒸(zhēng)汽被重新注入,這將(jiāng)有助於保持儲層的穩定性。
evalsuation of historical operations and resource conditions indicates that with construction of a new power plant (Steam ORC with 100% air-cooling) approximately 7.5 MW (Net) can be sustainably generated from the existing wellfield on an annual basis utilizing Kaishan’s ORC power generation equipment. The project will utilize air cooled condensers which will allow 100% of the condensed steam to be reinjected which will help maintain the stability of the reservoir.
Bottle Rock工廠位於Geysers已知地熱資源區(qū)內,Geysers是(shì)世界上最大的地熱發電廠綜合體,從 350 多口井中抽取蒸汽,並從附近的都會區重新注回處理過的汙水。該項目位於加利(lì)福尼亞州舊(jiù)金山以北(běi)約 72 英裏(116 公裏)處,於1985年2月開始(shǐ)商業運(yùn)營,原計劃為55兆(zhào)瓦的項目。由於缺乏對係統的補給(gěi),整個Geysers的資源嚴重下降(jiàng),使得電廠(chǎng)規模與可用蒸汽資源之間巨大的不匹配進而導致的運營挑戰,該工(gōng)廠自2015年4月1日起進(jìn)入非運營狀(zhuàng)態。The Bottle Rock plant is located within the Geysers Known Geothermal Resource Area, the world's largest complex of operating geothermal plants drawing steam from more than 350 wells, and reinjecting treated effluent from nearby metro areas. The project is located approximately 72 miles (116 km) north of San Francisco, California. The Bottle Rock plant began commercial operation in February 1985 as an originally planned 55-megawatt project. Because steam resources throughout the entire Geysers region declined severely over this time period due to lack of recharge to the system, operational challenges stemmed from the large mismatch between power plant size and available steam resource. The plant was placed into non-operational status effective April 1, 2015.
該項目的重新開發將包括安裝一個新的蒸汽(qì)-ORC 發電廠,並用幹冷卻(què)取(qǔ)代濕式冷卻塔,允許約100%的蒸汽冷凝水回注到儲層,從而支持現(xiàn)有井場生產的長期可持續性。
The redevelopment of the project will consist of installing a new steam-ORC power plant, and replacing the wet cooling towers with dry cooling, allowing ~ 100% reinjection of the steam condensate to the reservoir, supporting the longer-term sustainability of production from the existing wellfield.
公司已對該項目製定了詳細的項目進度(dù)和規劃,在(zài)及時獲得許(xǔ)可(kě)批準的情況下,期望的COD為2023年12月,目前也處(chù)於與潛在交易對手就長期 PPA 進行談判的後期階段。Mayacma Geothermal, LLC 估計該項目(mù)將(jiāng)也有資格獲得(dé)新可再生(shēng)能源投資稅收抵免。The Company has made detailed project schedule and planning of the Project, with target COD in December 2023 subject to receiving permitting approvals in a timely manner. It is also in the advanced stages of negotiating with a potential counterparty for a long-term PPA. Mayacma Geothermal LLC estimates that the Project will be eligible for the new renewable energy Investment Tax Credit as well.
這將是公司在美(měi)國的第 4 個地熱特許權(其他(tā)為 Whitegrass、Star Peak 和 Fish Lake),也是公司在加州第(dì)一個地(dì)熱(rè)項目。環境敏感性(xìng)和水資源保護是Geysers區域的重中之重,Bottle Rock工廠將就此向Geysers展(zhǎn)示獨特且可持續的發電廠設計。公司(sī)正(zhèng)在探索Geysers其他地(dì)方的進一步的發展機會。This will be the Company’s 4th geothermal project in the US (the others being Whitegrass, Star Peak and Fish Lake) and the first geothermal project in California. The Bottle Rock plant will demonstrate a unique and sustainable power plant design for Geysers resources, where environmental sensitivity and conservation of water resources is paramount. The company is exploring further development opportunities elsewhere in the Geysers.
