Forsa Energy develop, build and operate energy assets across Europe with a mandate to grow a portfolio of renewable power generation and gas generation projects. Forsa Energy’s UK operations contracted Clarke Energy to act as principal contractors to design and build 130MW_e of peaking power generation throughout the country.

Clarke Energy acted as principal contractors and designers to deliver a full turnkey 20MW_e electricity generating peaking plant at Forsa Energy’s Pimbo site in Skelmersdale. Clarke Energy proposed a configuration of 1 x Jenbacher JGS616 and 4 x Jenbacher JGS624 models, which have advanced 2-stage turbocharging technology, offering high electrical efficiency combined with improved flexibility.

INNIO’s Jenbacher 6 series engines have a short ramp up time to full capacity, ensuring a fast start capability. This enables the site to provide power generation at short notice during times of high demand, or when the grid frequency needs balancing. The fully automated and unmanned site is monitored and controlled remotely, providing critical electricity to the National Grid at times of peak demand.

Clarke Energy’s engineering and projects team designed and built a bespoke building to comply with specific planning requirements. The Jenbacher gas engines are mounted within a purpose built precast concrete enclosure, providing low noise attenuation required by planning.

Forsa Energy contracted Clarke Energy to oversee the process from design through to a five-year maintenance agreement, all in accordance with CDM regulations.
