Stricter environmental standards & emissions reduction requirements have led power-plant operators who are using HFO/fuel-oil to invest in emissions reduction equipment such as firing system control, post-combustion treatment of flue gases or to convert to Natural Gas which isn't available for all cases.

Since all of these options are very expensive, DOR MOTORS, together with the Israeli Electricity Company (IEC), has developed & conducted a low-cost solution of converting existing gas-turbine power plants currently operating on HFO/Fuel-oil to Methanol as a clean alternative fuel.

The advantages of such a solution are clear:

Air Emission reduction - 90% reduction in PM, 80% reduction in NOx, Elimination of CO2 emissions, significant reduction of CO2.

Lower CAPEX of the conversion to Methanol compared to investing in after-treatment emission reduction solutions.

Lower OPEX (Fuel & O&M costs) compared to HFO/diesel fuel.

Stable & Reliable maintenance – DOR MOTORS & IEC operate Methanol converted gas turbine power plants since 2014 and provides a stable and reliable electric power supply.
