The EDF Group is one of the world’s leading players in the energy sector. In recent years, he has started with EDISON an activity dedicated to the expansion of electricity production, with the construction of power plants from 400 MW to 800 MW in France and England.

CPL CONCORDIA has built two preheating and reduction units in France, at the Blenod and Martigues sites, consisting of various pre-assembled packages, the first located near the border with Belgium, the second near Marseille. The French company EDF is the operator of the plants, while the coordination of the design was carried out by the Italian joint venture EDISON.

The projects of the power plants, for the methane gas supply part, include:

• the construction of multiple pre-assembled packages on skids to be interconnected on site
• the construction of electrical power supply systems
• the control of electric heat exchangers with a power ranging from 52 KW to 960 KW

The power plants have been entirely designed and built according to European PED standards with consequent CE marking.
An automated structure for the control and management of the outlet temperature has been introduced on the plant that feeds the turbines, consisting of an advanced PID regulation system between the SCR stages of the electric exchangers and the control panels.
