ISPE – Institute for Studies and Power Engineering together with Politehnica University of Bucharest (UPB) organized the final National Conference CleanCOALtech 2014 with the topic “Clean coal combustion technologies”. The event took place on December 5, 2014 at University House in Craiova, Dolj County, Oltenia South West region.

ISPE organized this event as partner of the CleanCOALtech project “Educational and Training System for Clean Coal Technologies” along with Politehnica University of Bucharest (UPB) and the other Romanian members of the international consortium: ARoTT – Romanian Association for Technology Transfer and Innovation. (Please see attached the CleanCOALtech_Project-in-brief, the CleanCOALtech_Conference-Final-Agenda_05.12.2014 and the CleanCOALtech_Conference_Press-Release_Dec2014 in extenso).

CleanCOALtech National Conference aimed at disseminating the main objectives and the final results of the educational & training project and the promotion of the European funds made available through the LIFELONG LEARNING PROGRAM; Leonardo da Vinci / Transfer of Innovation – TOI / 2012.

Another objective of the conference, considering the new geopolitical background in the region, was drawing attention both to the national exploitation potential and efficient & clean use of coal domestic resources, and to the scientific interest in solutions and technologies already implemented in the energy sector in Romania.

ISPE together with Politehnica University of Bucharest (UPB) organized, at the end of November 2014,  CleanCOALtech training sessions on “Clean Coal Combustion Technologies.” The training sessions were held in Deva, Hunedoara County and Novaci, Gorj County and were addressed to the Romanian coal energy sector.

By organising 4 x CVET sessions within CleanCOALtech European project “Education and training systems for clean coal technologies”, each running 2 days for a group of 25 trainees, we plan to update and improve the knowledge of specialists (operation and maintenance/repair departments) and non-specialists (experts from support departments – marketing, commercial, economic etc.) working in power plants, in order to use coal local resources efficiently and clean.

UPB and ISPE lecturers (researchers/teachers) prepared a relevant curriculum in order to cover all clean coal technologies:

• Primary energy sources
• Conventional steam power plants (CSPP)
• CSPP Emissions control technologies
• Coal combustion in CSPP
• Coal and biomass co-firing
• Integrated coal gasification combined cycle power plants (IGCC)

The CVET sessions have brought together a number of 100 trainees (75 specialists and 25 non- specialists) from Oltenia Energy Complex, Hunedoara Energy Complex and Govora CHPP.

During 12^th -14^th October will take place the International Fair “POWER-GEN Middle East” in Abu-Dhabi.

It is the first time when Romelectro and ISPE will be exhibitors to a POWER-GEN event.

“POWER-GEN Middle East” event theme is “Regional Opportunities. Strategic Thinking. Technical Solutions” and is dedicated to public and private power producers, Governmental representatives, investors, power industry representatives, producers of equipment and systems, other players on the power generation market, mainly from the Middle East region.

The main purpose of Romelectro and ISPE participation to POWER-GEN Middle East is business development in Middle East through meetings with representatives of the utilities companies, discussions over their development strategies and consultancy and engineering opportunities.

Taking into consideration the export policy driven by Romelectro Group, our participation to POWER-GEN Middle East is very important in expressing our interest regarding power, oil, gas, water and environmental protection sectors in Middle East.

We will be back with detailed news regarding this subject.
