Small-scale zero emission gas expanders (SS-ZEGEX).

The project examines technical and economic possibilities of installing a combination of heat pumps and gas expanders at the gas distribution grid M/R stations where gas pressure will be reduced from 20-40 bar to 4 bar. If preliminary results turn out positive, the system will be demonstrated at an M/R station.
