Kenda wins CHP billing systems contract from Rolls-Royce Power
Ventures
Southampton-based Kenda Electronic
Systems has been awarded a contract from Rolls-Royce Power Ventures (RRPV) to supply a billing
system for the Derby CoGen CHP plant. RRPV is a joint venture between Rolls-Royce
and National Power.
Utilising a Rolls-Royce Trent gas turbine generator, the CHP
plant supplies electricity and steam to Rolls-Royce's Derby aero
engine site and also exports electricity to National Power.
The Kenda billing system will include a remote collector station
based at the London offices of RRPV, linked via modem to a 32-channel
Meteordata-collection outstation
at the plant.
In addition, Kenda will be supplying bespoke billing software
for producing bills against the contracts that Derby CoGen has
with both Rolls-Royce and National Power. As well as taking into account
the various commercial terms of these contracts, the software
will allow for daily fluctuations in electricity pool prices.
