Clarke Energy products

Ches Power Group (CPG) is an authorised dealer for Kohler Marine products. Always Present, Never Noticed. KOHLER marine generators are smaller. Quieter. Having redesigned their sound shield (with separate engine and alternator compartments) the improved air- management system significantly reduce sound levels.

Clarke Energy is an authorised distributor and service provider for Techno Project Industriale’s (TPI’s) biogas upgrading plants. These include both membrane and selective solvent-based washing systems. With Clarke Energy’s engineering, procurement, construction and aftersales support capabilities we are able to offer full biogas upgrading solutions to our customers along with integration to their sites. Biogas upgrading is the process of the separation of methane from the carbon dioxide and other gases from biogas. The concentrated biogas – close to 100% methane is called ‘biomethane’ or ‘renewable natural gas’ (RNG). This gas can be used as a vehicle fuel or injected into the gas distribution network.

Biomethane or renewable natural gas (RNG) is produced via biogas upgrading. It can also be used as a renewable fuel in gas engines. Clarke Energy can provide both biogas upgrading and biogas engine technologies.

Natural gas or biomethane can be transported in cylinders where there is no availability of gas distribution networks, via a virtual gas pipeline. This gas can be used in gas engines to generate electricity and heat at high efficiency through combined heat and power technology.

Generate electricity and heat via a combined heat and power gas engine. Biogas is formed by the anaerobic decomposition of putrescible organic material. Biogas can either be used to generate electricity and heat via a combined heat and power gas engine, or can be cleaned to produce pure biomethane via biogas upgrading. Clarke Energy is a distributor of Jenbacher gas engines which are designed for robust operation on difficult gases such as biogas, landfill gas or sewage gas. Clarke Energy is also a distributor for TPI’s biogas upgrading plants.

Carbon Capture, Utilisation & Storage (CCUS) is the process of capturing CO2 from energy intensive processes before it enters atmosphere and finding a market use or transport to a storage facility (normally underground in geological caverns). Long-term storage of CO2 in a geological formation is still relatively new as a concept but will play a huge part in the net-zero efforts in the future. However, there are possibilities to capture and utilise the CO2 in a profitable way. Carbon capture is a key focus globally with many government incentives encouraging investment in carbon capture technology.

Battery energy storage systems (BESS) play an essential role in integrating and accelerating renewable energy deployment. By helping to balance energy supply with demand, Energy storage greatly improves the efficiency of renewable sources and allow maximal renewable energy penetration into the energy network. Energy storage can provide support services to the electricity grid, or to an individual consumer behind-the-meter. Energy storage may be deployed as stand-alone systems or with power generation as part of a hybrid energy system or microgrid scheme.

Clarke Energy is a KOHLER company and distributes KOHLER generators in the South Pacific which are suitable for a wide range of applications. Our generators are designed and manufactured in the KOHLER facility in France with more than 50 years of product optimisation experience, available with a “plug-and-play” design philosophy for ease of installation. Dedicated KOHLER service and parts support is available 24/7 throughout the South Pacific and includes stock holding held locally to service our customers. Service training is available on-site or our central training facility.

Biogas peaking stations are biogas-fuelled energy generation stations that are powered by biogas or biomethane. Biogas is one of the few dispatchable renewable energy technologies. Whereby wind and solar energy generate when the wind blows or sun shines biogas can generate electricity on demand, if the fuel has been stored in advance. This means at peak times and to balance electricity demand and supply, biogas peaking stations along with storage technologies can be used to deliver a wholly renewable electricity grid.
