HOFOR, Hovedstadsområdets Forsyningsselskab, is building a new biomass fueled power plant at the existing Amager Power Plant with a performance of 500 MWh. The entire project for the building complex, the storage facilities and the conveyor system is called BIO4. The building complex consists of turbine- and electrical building, boiler building and flue gas treatment building. It is approximately 50 meters wide and 205 meters long. The highest point of the building is approximately 70 meters above ground level. The two storage facilities are approximately 200 meters long, 40 meters wide and 40 meters high. There are several conveyor systems starting from the southern harbour going to the storage facilities and on to the building complex. Along this alignment there are secondary buildings such as transfer stations, wood chipping plant and various electrical buildings.
The project is located on land registry number 544, 553, 554 and 566 Amagerbros Kvarter, Copenhagen. The address for BIO4 is Kraftværksvej 37, DK-2300 København S.
The contract includes erection of steel structures for the building complex. Only the turbine- and electrical building and flue gas treatment building is part of the contract. The steel structure for the turbine building is approximately from level +20.70 to +41.70. The steel structure for the flue gas treatment building is approximately from level +11.70 up to +47.70. Besides steel structures for the main building steel structures for stair towers and elevator shafts including steel sandwich panels are also a part of the contract.
