Energy production in the world, as well as electricity production, is changing and transforming from a large scale to a small scale; Because the process of privatization and downsizing in the country is taking place in parallel with the world. Global studies show the growth of the internal combustion power plant generators market (gas and diesel) in the next two decades. The results of the forecasting of the compound growth rate of power plant engines trade in the world indicate a simultaneous increase in the price of these generators and the number of their sales at least within the next two decades; It is expected that the number of sales of these engines will grow by 2.3% until 2035 and the profit from their sales will grow by 3.5% in the period until 2035.
In addition to serious advantages such as high thermal efficiency and the non-dependence of this efficiency on environmental conditions (temperature, pressure, humidity), the essence of reciprocating generator technology has remarkable advantages compared to other electricity generation technologies Some of them will be mentioned below.
Reciprocating generators have the possibility of using gas and liquid fuel types. Although the most serious option for use in power plants is natural gas. Natural gas has the highest ratio of hydrogen to carbon, and as a result, it produces the lowest amount of greenhouse gas among all types of fossil fuels. If the conditions are possible, for example, in places with difficult access, islands, etc., options such as diesel, condensates or the remains of Distillation column such as fuel oil, etc. can be used in these generators with suitable efficiency. The fuel used by these generators is not limited to fossil options and all types of renewable fuels such as biogas and biodiesel can be easily used in these generators.
The reliability, safety and high resistance of these generators have made them suitable options for continuous energy production in order to obtain basic electricity, especially in places with special conditions. In addition, the high thermal efficiency and packaging of these generators should also be considered. These generators are ideal options to be placed in basements or on the roof of residential and commercial units or inside the enclosure of industrial centers and supply their required electricity.
These generators are ideal options for challenging places, including islands and places that have difficult conditions in terms of annual average temperature or air pressure (mountainous places, deserts, cold places). In addition, the start-up time of the power plant with these generators is short. In some cases, power plants have been put into operation in less than two weeks.
