Chapter 991: Helpless

Miles's roars in the private room came and went, frightening the waiters outside one by one.

As for Cai Weiguo and the others in the private room, they were even more panicked, but no one spoke out to stop them, the reason is very simple, if it is really as Miles said, Cao Jiefang is spreading joy, then Miles should be happy, and then calmly let Wei Hui's tongue and throat expose Cao Jiefang's lies, so as to make Tengfei Group lose face in front of the people of the whole country.

But now Miles is like a resentful woman whose husband was robbed by a vixen, angry and hoarse, obviously Cao Jiefang's remarks in the interview directly poked Miles's soft underbelly and hit the key point of GE, otherwise how could it be such a reaction?

And that's exactly what happened.

At present, there are only two air energy storage power stations in the world, one is the Hentow power station in Germany, which was put into operation in 1979, and the other is the McKinlish power station, which was built in Alabama, USA, in 1991.

However, both the Hentov and McKinlish power stations use natural gas as the blocking fuel for gas turbines, and the compressed air stored in the underground abandoned mine caverns is only used as an auxiliary medium for natural gas combustion.

As a result, not only are the two plants emission-free, but their thermal efficiency is similar to that of a conventional gas turbine-natural gas power combination, at between 50 and 55 percent.

However, this does not prevent Germany and the United States from hyping up this type of development model as an advanced model for environmental protection, and the problem is that countries or business organizations with a certain degree of vision can see through the essence of the American and German models at a glance.

The reuse of abandoned mines is just a gimmick, and the essence of natural gas combined with gas turbines is to generate electricity.

If anything, Germany and the United States are using more thermally efficient industrial gas turbines in air-energy storage plants.

The problem is that this kind of chicken-ribbed improvement has no effect at all except that it is expensive, and it is all about using natural gas to generate electricity, so why spend two or three times more money to build a power station on an abandoned mine? As long as the natural gas supply can be built, he is not fragrant in building a cheap ordinary power station?

This is also why after the United States and Germany launched air energy storage power stations, the appreciators were overwhelmed, but there were almost no important reasons for the real pit, after all, there are not many countries in the world with online IQs, and no one has a reason to do the wrongs of the United States and Germany.

However, Tengfei Group's real realization of zero emission of air energy storage power station is different, using a large amount of heat energy generated in the process of compressed air, stored through a heat converter, when power is needed, and then using a heat converter to heat the air to reach a high temperature of hundreds or thousands of degrees, and then introducing a gas turbine to promote the turbine to rotate to do work, and finally through the generator to generate electricity.

There is not the slightest fossil fuel generation in the whole composition, and it is completely a thermodynamic conversion that even junior high school students understand.

The problem is that it is such a simple principle of mutual conversion, but it is very difficult to actually make it.

First of all, the efficiency of the air compressor must be particularly high, otherwise it will not be possible to obtain high heat energy of compressed air, and naturally it will not be able to achieve effective conversion of heat energy.

Secondly, the energy loss of the heat converter must be controlled at a very low level, that is, the heat energy of the compressed air can be absorbed by the heat converter and can maintain a very high temperature for a long time, so as to effectively heat the compressed air used for power generation.

Finally, and most importantly, is to fully understand the various technologies of gas turbines? Especially this section of the combustion chamber? Because of this kind of introduction of ultra-high heat sources from the outside world? In the field of gas turbines, it is also called external combustion chamber, if the relevant production units do not have an accurate grasp of all aspects of the gas turbine, it is easy to cause the thermal efficiency of the gas turbine to decrease, resulting in the efficiency of the entire generator set is not ideal.

All in all, this kind of zero-emission air energy storage power station is the same as an aero engine, except that the principle is simple? Every other node is a super difficulty that can make the engineer's hairline disappear completely.

If not, wouldn't the United States and Germany want zero emissions?

It's not that you don't want to, but the technical requirements are too high? It's too difficult to achieve, and the concubines really can't do it.

Outcome? This kind of technology, which even the United States and Germany cannot achieve, Ascendas Group has not only achieved it, but also has very good thermal efficiency? According to Cao Jiefang, it can reach about 55%? It can be further increased to 60% in the future.

Even if Miles thinks the 55% and 60% values are a bit distorted, but with the efficiency of a gas turbine? Thermal efficiency of 40 to 45 percent is still available.

Just use the minimum value of 40%? The attraction to certain regions and countries is just as frightening.

Because this zero-emission air storage power station doesn't require any fossil fuels? Using only the heat transfer medium that can be sealed into the heat exchanger with compressed air, it can be used as a very large energy storage battery for cities or large enterprises, providing them with a continuous supply of electricity.

This is no longer a simple environmental issue for specific countries and regions, and the life-cycle fuel cost alone can save tens of millions of dollars.

Do you know that this is just a saving from the price of fuel? If you want to transport natural gas or oil to the power station, you need to build an oil and gas pipeline, and the construction cost must be calculated?

Pipelines need regular maintenance, right?

Should the cost of maintenance be counted?

In addition to pipelines, natural gas and oil also need to be stored, and the cost of building and maintaining warehouses for storage is also a large amount.

Taken together, the whole life cycle savings are not only tens of millions of dollars, but hundreds of millions of dollars.

Such a cost-effective throttling effect is placed here, not to mention 40% thermal efficiency, even if it is only 30%, specific countries and regions will rush to get it.

So the question is, will Tengfei Group swallow this market in one bite.

Based on Myers' observation of Tengfei Group for such a long time, not to mention the air energy storage power station market, but also the entire global gas turbine market, Tengfei Group is ready to pounce on it and take a few bites.

Such a good opportunity is in front of us, and it is no wonder that Tengfei Group does not take it.

However, in this way, GE will not only fail to contain the Ascendas Group, but may even lose a considerable market share to the Ascendas Group in the future competition.

What's worse is that in the face of Ascendas Group's zero-emission air energy storage power station, GE is simply helpless, let alone has no products to compete with, let alone stop it.

Instead, Ascendas can use it to break into the U.S. and European markets, and in turn harvest leeks from the backyards of GE and Siemens.

And this is also the reason why Miles will be so uncharacteristically yelling at Cao Jiefang to lie, no way, even if it is not lying, it is still lying, otherwise the matter will spread to the GE headquarters in the United States, and he, the vice president who led the suppression of Tengfei Group, does not even know such an important technical achievement of the opponent, then he doesn't have to mix in GE, just leave with all the covers!
