• New large boiler plant for Dow Benelux for efficient steam generation
  • First large business customer project for E.ON in the Netherlands

E.ON has entered into a long-term partnership with Dow Benelux to build, own and operate a large gas-fired boiler plant for their largest production site in Europe, located in Terneuzen, the Netherlands. At site, Dow is producing chemical intermediates which are further processed for a variety of products in commercial and industrial business such as packaging, coatings and foams.

The new boiler plant will be able to generate up to 350 tons of steam per hour for the production processes on the Terneuzen site and will be taken into operation by the end of 2019. The highly efficient new boiler plant will add to the existing energy generation units thereby increasing the flexibility of the site’s energy supply. The new boiler plant is equipped with advanced burner technology that can burn both natural gas and gaseous by-products of Dow production processes. Its innovative technical design allows for high ramp-up rates for a stable steam supply at all times.

As the first large decentralised energy solution for a major global industry partner that E.ON will realise in the Netherlands, this project also marks an important step for E.ON in expanding its customer solution business. “Sustainable energy solutions that create value for our business customers are an important strategic pillar for E.ON,” explains Bernd Schumacher, CEO of E.ON Connecting Energies. “We are pleased to form this long-term partnership with Dow and plan to further strengthen our offering in this market.”

“The project with E.ON is also critical for Dow in providing the Terneuzen site with a flexible and cost competitive energy supply solution for the future” says Dick Stobbe, Business Director Energy for Dow in Europe, Middle East, Africa and India as well as the region Asia Pacific.
