A Coal - Fired Thermal Plant will produce Green Energy

Rio Global Energy/CONTEST are working to implement a

500MW Coal-fired Thermoelectric Power Plant in Brazil.

using brasilian coal.

A Copyright process by CONTEST injects ammonia to cleaning sulphur gases contained in the coal,

and gets fertilizers besides products for food and

pharmaceutical industries. 

Comparing the Energy Production price of USD $ 20/MWh

with the current commercialization price of USD $ 85/MWh,

the electrical energy produced could become a by-product

In Brazil a plant will be installed in Cachoeira do Sul, RS,

near the Iruí Mine, and this region could supply coal

for more than 300 years, producing 5,000 MW.

A similar project could be made in China

Project Investment : USD$ 1.55 Billion

Coal - Fired Thermoelectric Plant: USD$ 1 billion

Ammonia Plant: USD$ 400 MM

Contest Technology & Process Supervision: USD$ 150 MM

Coal-Fired Power Plant

SPECIFIC PURPOSE COMPANY A 500MW Coal-Fired Power Plant, using CONTEST technology and local coal with high sulphur and ash content, will require about USD$ 1.55 billions investment, securing an annual revenue of about USD$ 1.2 billion/year.

Coal - Fired Power Plant

A 500MW Coal-Fired Power Plant with Copyright Technology , using coal with high sulphur

and ash content, will require about USD$ 1.55 billions (Thermoelectric Plant US$ 1 billion,

Fertilizer Plant US$ 400 millions, and Technology & Process Supervision US$ 150 millions) ,

securing an annual revenue of about USD$ 1.2 billion/year.

The ROI (Return Of Investment) would be less than three (3) years.

Income: Sales of 400 MW/year for designated buyer,

15-year contract, competitive price, lower than market.

400MW x 7,446 h (85% service factor) = 2,740 MWh/year;

Energy price/MWh = R$ 110.00 => USD$67.87 (exchange rate R$ 1.62/USD $ 1);

Total: 2,740MM x USD$65.87 = USD$ 180.492 MM/year;

15-year contract = USD$180.492 MM x 15 years

= USD$ 2.707 Billions

Sales in the spot market Power: 100 MW; Energy: 100MW x 7446h = 744,600 MWh/year;

Income for the energy: USD$ 150.00/MWh or R$250.00/MWh

Total of Energy sold: USD$150/MWh x 744, 600 MWh=USD$111.690MM/year; Total of Energy sold in the year: USD$ 292MM

in 15 years = USD$ 1.675 billions

Products generated in the Ammonia/Urea factory. Firm Ammonia Contract with the Plant: Generated Volume: 400,000 tons/year; Consumption of the Plant: 360,000 tons/year; Ammonia value: USD$400,00/ton. Sales to the Plant = 360,000 tons/year x USD$400.00 = USD$ 144MM/year;

Urea (Fertilizer market, firm sales contract for 15 years): Generated Volume : 600,000 tons/year; Value: USD$450.00/ton; Sales: 600,000 tons/year x USD$ 450.00/ton=USD$ 270MM;

Products Generateds by UTE RIOGRANDENSE: Ammonia sulphate(NH4)2SO4: Volume produced by year: 1MMton; Value of ton: USD$ 180. Annual sales of Ammonia sulphate: 1MMton/year x USD$180/ton= US$ 180MM/year.

Ammonia Carbonate(NH4)2CO3: Annual production: 300,000 ton/year; Value of ton USD$ 300.00; Annual sales: 300,000tons x USD$ 300.00/ton = USD$ 90MM/year;

Ammonia bicarbonate(NH4HCO3): Annual production: 200,000 tons. Value of ton: USD$ 1,300; Annual sales: 200,000 tons x USD$ 1,300 = USD$ 260MM;

Bi/Carbonate of Ammonia (NH4CO3.NH2COONH4): Production: 100,000 tons/year. Value of ton = USD$ 42,360; Annual sales: 100,000 tons X USD$ 42,360

= USD$ 4.236 billions

TOTAL OF PRODUCTS SOLD BY U.T.E. RIO GRANDENSE:

Ammonia sulphate: USD$ 180MM

Ammonia carbonate:USD$ 90MM

Ammonia bicarbonate: USD$ 260MM

Bi/Carbonate of Ammonia: USD$ 4.236 Billions

TOTAL USD$ 4.766 Billions

Average value of products sold:

Annual production: 600,000 tons per year:

Annual sales: USD$ 4.766 billions

Average value per ton= USD$ 7,943

Electrical energy sold:

Captive energy: USD$ 180.492MM

Free market ( SPOT) USD$ 111.990MM

Total: USD$ 292.482MM /year;

Annual sales; USD$ 4.766 Billions + USD$ 292.482MM

= USD$ 5.058 Billions

This amount is function of national

and international market demands
