Vilnius Combined Heat and
Power Plant No. 2 (E-2)
Electric capacity – 28,8 MW.
Heat capacity – 932MW.
Vilnius Combined Heat and
Power Plant No. 3 (E-3)
Third largest power plant in terms of electric
capacity in Lithuania (following the Power Plant
of Lithuania and Kruonis Pumped Storage Power
Plant).
Electric capacity in cogeneration mode – 360 MW.
Heat capacity – 604 MW.
Regardless of inflation during the period (~ 30 percent), fixed price hasn't changed a lot.
This was made mostly because of investments and good management which increased effectiveness of
company. Unfortunately we have no influence to increasing gas prices.

FGC - for recover heat from flue gas and for reducing CO2 emissions
By using of FGC bio mass boilers efficiency increased 20-25%, that lets
return approximately 102.4 GWh annual heat energy( and that is about 3%
of heat energy which is produced in E-2 and E-3 power plants)
FGC reduces natural gas costs, have a long operation period (~20 years) and
have a low operational cost
Good payback

VILNIUS CHP-2 BIOMASS UNIT PROJECT
The Vilnius CHP-2 biomass unit projects:
• Start of BFB boiler installation - June 2005:
- Retrofit a 1953 existing boiler (Thermal capacity - 60 MW, from it 12 MWel). Installation
of a bubbling fluidized bed, construction of fuel handling system and electrostatic filter
and etc.;
- Beginning of operation: October 2006. Annual output: 420 GWh (heat) and 64.8 GWh
(electricity);
Fuel: from 200 to 220 th. t. of wood biomass (70% also 10% of straw from it) and
peat 30%);
- Gas consumption by Vilniaus Energija reduced by 8%, CO2 emissions cut by 96 000 t. per
year;
- Investments - 11 700 k€.
• Installation of new 16,7 MWe turbine instead of old one 12 MWe, output of electricity
increased by 33,1 GWh:
- Investments - 7 183 k€.
• Flue gas condenser started to operate in April 2010:
54 ,1 GWh/year flue gas heat recovery, CO2 cut by 12 000 t.;
Investments - 7 860 k€.
Total – 26 743 k€.
