ENTRADE Energiesysteme AG presents plants generating energy from wood at bio-energy conference in Moscow

Decentral supplies of electricity and heating from regenerative biomass

Moscow/Dsseldorf. - At the conference on 'Efficient decentral use of biomass in the Russian Federation', which takes place in the Russian capital on 18 and 19 February ENTRADE Energiesysteme AG is presenting small and medium-capacity installations for generating electricity from wood. In the course of the two-day conference Entrade CEO Julien Uhlig will be giving a presentation on the subject of 'Decentral electricity generation from solid biomass in rural regions' and demonstrating how a plant fuelled by wood can be used to generate power and heating.

'In particular the rural areas of the Russian Federation represent a market with high sales potential for us, because many communities are not connected to central energy supply grids. And it is often not just electric power which is lacking but also the efficient generation of heating', states Mr Uhlig. 'Our installations produce not only base load electricity but also heating, which means that conventional wood stoves or outdated heating equipment can be replaced. Because of the significantly higher effectiveness level we generate more heat at better emissions values and therefore make an active contribution to environmental protection.'

Hannover/Germany, 17/02/2014. Hoeft & Wessel AG will be exhibiting its portfolio of solutions for ticketing systems at the IT-Trans 2014. The manufacturer supports the international conference for IT solutions for public commuter transport as a gold sponsor. The technology enterprise headquartered in Hannover, with a subsidiary in Swindon (United Kingdom) develops hardware and software solutions for data capture and processing with a major focus on mobility. In the fields of public transport, trade and logistics, Hoeft & Wessel thus ensures optimised transportation of passengers, goods and services.

At the IT-Trans, amongst other things the consistent further development of a ticketing terminal will be exhibited in the new, modern design and with an operating bay that is easy to use and combines all essential operating elements in a single interface. Two four-lane printers can be integrated into the device, making it possible to process up to eight paper rolls simultaneously. This extends the service intervals substantially, lowering the general operating costs for public transport corporations accordingly. Another important aspect of the further development of the successful almex.station product series is the further improvement in protection against vandalism. New operating bays made of stainless steel are extremely resistant against vandalism. Moreover, a newly developed film adhesion system facilitates personalised design and simple replacement of the film if damaged due to vandalism. Apart from public transport corporations, in Europe the Danish and Belgian state railways as well as German Rail use ticketing terminals from Hoeft & Wessel AG.

At the IT-Trans, the company will be exhibiting the almex.compact series for installation in vehicles. The ticketing terminal to be installed is equipped with up to four supplementary coin boxes and two paper rolls for the graphic-enabled printer. As a result, the maintenance expense and effort has been considerably reduced. Another device that can be found in public transport vehicles is the new on-board computer of the almex.optima series from Hoeft & Wessel, including a ticket printer. In future, this device will also facilitate a new, simple form of e-Ticketing, providing for contactless credit cards to be used instead of fare tickets. The FirstGroup, the biggest bus operator in the United Kingdom, has already been equipped with the new on-board computer. The small, handy control device almex.motive makes it easier for train attendants and conductors to check e-Tickets with an RFID chip or barcode. The portfolio of solutions is rounded off by an efficient back-office software solution that ensures communication with the central office as well as speedy and effective further processing of the relevant data. Featuring the VDV-KA, ITSO and Calypso standards, the ticketing systems from Hoeft & Wessel are ready for the future of e-Ticketing.

Megatrend mobility The Hoeft & Wessel Group is a leading solutions and service partner for systems for recording, validating and processing data. A member of the Droege Group, the technology company ensures the optimised transportation of passengers, goods and services in the sectors of trade & logistics, railway & cargo and parking & public transport and is thus focusing on the global megatrend mobility. Hoeft & Wessel systems contribute to boosting efficiency through the automation of processes. The company has its headquarters in Hannover/Germany with a further head office in Swindon, west of London.
