ARLINGTON, Va. -- (Business Wire)
Siemens Government Technologies, Inc. (SGT) is proud to extend its
long-standing partnership with the U.S. Department of Energy (DoE)
through the award of a new task order under DoE’s Energy Savings
Performance Contract for energy efficiency and resiliency improvements
at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), under an initial $45.8 million
implementation contract award. Over the anticipated 21-year performance
period, total value of the contract is projected at $555 million.
Relied upon for its mission critical work in maintaining the nation’s
nuclear deterrent, LANL is seeking to replace and enhance an aging and
inefficient steam plant constructed more than 60 years ago, responsible
for heat and limited cogeneration of power to buildings that house more
than half of employees on the LANL campus.
Drawing from the expertise of Siemens’ Power and Gas and Power
Generation Services divisions, the contract will be implemented in
multiple phases. The first phase includes upgrading an existing gas
turbine and installing a new generator, installing two new high
efficiency boilers and a new high-pressure gas line with a new gas
compressor for maximum efficiency and throughput. Subsequent phases will
incorporate the replacement of a failing steam condensate return system
with a protected durable condensate return – essential for greater
heating capacity and flexibility as well as the introduction of a
complete combined heat and power system with auxiliary boilers for
redundant heat capacity.
Additionally, Siemens will provide vital operations, maintenance, repair
and replacement services as appropriate throughout the life cycle of the
project. Taken as a whole, the full project will significantly increase
LANL’s resiliency and energy security, while simultaneously reducing
energy, water and maintenance costs.
“We are honored to have the opportunity to perform this essential
modernization work and help Los Alamos National Laboratory meet their
energy efficiency, resiliency, and CO2 reduction goals,” said Tina
Dolph, president and CEO, Siemens Government Technologies. “We look
forward to doing our part in supporting the infrastructure that allows
the researchers and scientists to perform their critical work on behalf
of the nation.”
