Borsod
Location: Hungary
Operator: AES-Tisza Eromu Kft
Configuration: 4 X 30 MW, 1 X 4 MW, 1 X 12.5 MW, 1 X 21 MW, 1 X 5 MW, 1 X
10 MW
Fuel: brown coal, wood
Operation: 1955-1968
Boiler supplier: Borsig, Ganz
T/G supplier: Ganz, Lang
Quick facts: The first phase of this CHP plant was built from 1951-1957.
Starting in 2002, one of the boilers was modified for firing wood
and other biomass and eventually, two boilers were retrofit with CFB
equipment for 100% biomass consumption. The remaining sets were taken out of service in 2003
with the expiration of power and heat supply contracts with Kazincbarcika city and nearby industrial concerns. A pair of 250-MW CFB units are planned
for operation in 2011.

Novaky (ENO)
Location: Slovakia
Operator: Slovenske Elektrarne
Configuration: 1 X 22 MW, 1 X 32 MW, 1 X 38 MW, 4 X 110 MW CHP
Fuel: lignite (ENO A), lignite, oil (ENO B)
Operation: 1953-1976
Boiler supplier: Brno, Tlmace
T/G supplier: Skoda
Quick facts: ENO-A construction began in 1949 and
was completed in 1957 when the plant had ten boilers and eight T/G sets.
ENO-B was built between 1963 and 1976. In 1996, a CFB and new
back-pressure T/G was erected at the A plant on space previously occupied
by retired sets. In 1998, two of the 110-MW units were retrofit with FGD
scrubbers. The ENO heating system supplies 15,000 homes in Prievidza and
steam to nearby industrial works.

Configuration: 4 X 65 MW
Fuel: lignite
Operation: 1961-1963
Boiler supplier: Rafako
T/G supplier: Skoda, Ganz
Quick facts: Vertesi Eromu was formed in Jan 1992 and is owned by state
power company MVM. Fuel for Vertesi's two plants is from mines in the
Oroszlany and Tatabanya regions including Markushegy, Hungary's largest
and most modern underground mine. The mines became part of Vertesi

Vojany (EVO)
Location: Slovakia
Operator: Slovenske
Elektrarne
Configuration: 12 X 110 MW
Fuel: hard coal (EVO I), natural gas, oil (EVO II)
Operation: 1966-1974
Boiler supplier: Brno, Lurgi
T/G supplier: Skoda
EPC: Energoprojekt Prague, Škoda Pilsen, Chemkostav Humenné
Quick facts: EVO I planning began in Nov 1959, the project was approved in
Feb 1960, and construction began the following year. Design fuel was
semi-anthracite coal imported from Ukraine by a purpose built wide-gauge
rail line and the Zemplínska Šírava reservoir was built to supply cooling
water. EVO II was approved at the end of 1966 but the then Soviet Union
was unable to supply sufficient coal for the new plant so the design fuel
was switched to heavy oil. From 1979-1985, EVO II was modified to fire
natural gas as well. The main plant stack is 300m high.
