In France, Clarke Energy gained ISO 9001 certification in 2008. More than 376 Jenbacher gas engines are currently installed throughout France, providing over 584MW of electricity. 490MW of this has been provided by natural gas while the remaining 94MW has come from biological gas applications. Clarke Energy’s installations meet the highest levels of environmental performance. Examples of developments include renewable energy facilities on landfill and biogas, high efficiency generation via combined heat and power and coal mine facilities capturing gases which would otherwise have escaped to atmosphere.
