PROJECT FACTS
Accumulator for Fossil-Free District Heating
Volume: 23,474 m³, Year of Construction: 2020
EPC Project for Sustainable Urban Development
Fossil-Free District Heating and Smoother Operation
Göteborg Energi chose Rodoverken to build a new accumulator tank in Skarvikshamnen, near the Rya Combined Heat and Power Plant. The project encompassed everything from planning to completion under an Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) solution.
The tank, with a capacity of 23,474 m³, is a crucial component in phasing out fossil fuels and stabilizing district heating in Gothenburg. It allows for energy storage during low demand and its use during high load periods, which reduces carbon dioxide emissions and contributes to smoother operation of the facility. This marks an important step towards fossil-free district heating in the city.
