RWM Exhibition proves a hit for Mitsubishi Electric’s EFW plant control solutions

EFW increasing, leading industry figures suggest that up to 17% of the UK’s demand from electricity could practicably be met by EFW plants. This would help to reduce dependence of fossil fuels whilst also reducing dependence on landfill sites for waste management.

Mitsubishi Electric has supported EFW plants in other parts of the world and is aware of the importance of maximising efficiency while ensuring that all emission standards are met. It has developed a range of products and services which can improve production performance and will help to ensure that this important emerging industry continues to grow.

The 2015 RWM Exhibition proved successful as an opportunity to meet professionals within the UK, and across Europe, as it showcased several innovative new solutions for the EFW industry. These included the PMSX^®micro, a control system developed specifically for smaller plants, and the Virtual power plant, which uses cutting edge control technologies to create a stable energy network by automatically managing multiple plants to work together and meet real-time energy needs.

The show was well attended and the Mitsubishi Electric stand was a firm favourite for visitors from the EFW sector. One visitor to the stand commented:

“Energy from Waste is still an emerging market in the UK, which will continue to grow. Mitsubishi Electric’s tried and tested control and automation technologies help manage the overall efficiency of our site. This will make our processes even more efficient and help us to meet our environmental targets.”

Mitsubishi Electric’s latest products and services help to improve the level of automation and efficiency, whether they are EFW, Biomass, traditional fuels or any other new and emerging solution.
