■ Signing Ceremony at the Headquarters of Welcron Hantec in Guro-dong, Seoul for MOU Regarding Construction of Biomass Power Plant, Facility, and Related Technologies
■ Aims to Create Synergy through Collaboration on Respective Solutions and Technologies Including Power Plant Control System ? Power Generation Facility and Technology
■ Turnkey Construction through New Consortium ??? Expects to Take Over the Eco-Friendly Power Plant Market after Southeast Asia
LSIS Co., Ltd. (represented by Vice Chairperson Ja-Kyun Koo), a professional service provider in the industrial plant market, has signed a strategic partnership with Welcron Hantec (represented by Chairperson Yeong-Gyu Lee) as its first step to penetrate the Southeast Asian market, where investments in biomass power plant are constantly being expanded.
LSIS has signed an MOU with Welcron Hantec for a “Partnership for the Construction of Biomass Power Plant,” which details the cooperation on the technologies of both companies such as power plant control system, power-generating facility solution, etc. Bong-Hyeon Kwon, A&D Project Team Chief of LSIS, and Yeong-Gyu Lee of Welcron Hantec were present at the signing ceremony held at the headquarters of Welcron Hantec in Guro-dong, Seoul on January 13.
Based on comprehensive technological cooperation regarding new construction projects including biomass-based plants, the two companies will set up a consortium to improve turnkey construction capacity for power plant and take active steps in the eco-friendly power plant market.
LSIS will provide its major electricity control solutions such as power transmission/supply facilities, power plant control system, and high pressure inverter. On the other hand, Welcron Hantec will be responsible for power facility-related plant technologies including water processing system, incinerator, boilers, and surfer recovery unit for power plant.
Biomass power generation burns or ferments living organisms to get energy such as methane or methanol, and it is applied to thermal power plant in general. Power plant with biomass technology is fueled with fine chips of agricultural byproducts or forest resources in the neighborhood for cost reduction, stable operation, and environmental protection.
Because of such benefits, biomass power plant is drawing attention from countries in Southeast Asia and Africa, which have wide territorial base and abundant resources but no oil to use as energy source. Discussions are underway for investment in those markets.
LSIS plans to penetrate Southeast Asia first based on its electricity, automatic control facility and equipment, and solution technologies and the capability of Welcron Hantec related to plant facility, creating synergy to boost penetration in the region.
The market is constantly growing as many Southeast Asian governments are strategically promoting the new renewable energy-based power plant market, especially small ~ medium-sized biomass plants with 30~50MW capacity fueled by bagasse (byproduct of sugar cane) or wood chips from processed woods.
“This MOU will reinforce overseas power plant competitiveness though the cooperation of two companies with great technological power. Starting from Southeast Asia, the two companies will cooperate to dominate the markets of new and renewable energy sources including biomass in Africa and other regions worldwide,” LSIS said.
Established in 1994, Welcron Hantec is a mid-sized company specializing in industrial plants and providing energy saving facilities for food and pharmaceutical processing, concentration, and drying as well as environmental facilities for wastewater treatment and industrial water reprocessing. The company is a promising technological champion expanding into the fields of energy and power, and it will make more active efforts in the biomass market with LSIS.
