Our advanced 2G® BIO-TEC® energy generation technology utilizes a variety of biogases derived from the fermentation process (anaerobic digestion) in natural biodegradable materials to generate electricity and heat using a fuel that is both efficient, and providing many economic benefits. 2G® BIO-TEC® biogas cogeneration modules are specifically developed for biogas applications. A compact CHP design with integrated control-and switchgear, thermal energy distribution system and advanced enclosure options.

2G® BIO-TEC® biogas CHP systems are designed for unsurpassed operation economy.  We created the next generation of energy efficient CHP modules for the biogas industry. Manufacturing biogas CHP systems requires more know-how than just packaging a standard gas engine.

2G®’s thermodynamically optimized MAN® gas engines with 2G-Drive® technology are ideal for biogas (CHP) installations. The technology behind 2G® gas engines and their controls makes them highly reliable, offering superior efficiency with extended engine life. The added benefits of these 2G-Drive® MAN® gas engines over the conventional standard MAN®, or any other gas engine in a similar size range, include up to 25% higher electrical efficiency, and in average 35% lower maintenance cost.

We offer more value than our competition by focusing on advanced technology improvements “superior by design”, and “system efficiency”, rather than just packaging a standard gas engine. Our BIO-TEC® cogeneration power plants deliver exceptional performance while ensuring the environmentally friendly generation of electricity and heat at a combined efficiency often exceeding 90%.

2G® is a trusted equipment provider for most biogas plant specialists all over the world. Biogas plants are only as good and reliable as the overall design, and the quality of the CHP cogeneration module converting biogas into valuable electric and thermal energy. We realize that anybody can claim to use only highest quality components, promising reliable and efficient systems. The difference can be found in the details. Innovative technologies combined with unmatched experience result in incomparable CHP solutions and longevity.

In late 2009 our factory reached a milestone of 1200 CHP cogeneration systems manufactured, supplied and installed. Thanks to an additional production plant opened in 2009 and a new factory extension to be operational in Oct. 2010, the total number of installed CHP systems is expected to reach 1800 by the end of 2010.

When it comes to biogas power generation our customers don’t take chances. Time after time the worlds leading biogas plant developers select 2G® to safeguard their investment and success. Why? Because there is no higher level of quality, efficiency, and durability available. We could offer you promising words,… but the numbers of installed units say it all.

Biogas power plants are classified as "renewable energy" and therefore attract municipal, state, and federal incentives.  The term biogas is confined to gases which are systematically produced from renewable sources being carbon neutral throughout their life cycle.
