TONAK: FULL OUTSOURCING OF UTILITIES PRODUCTION

Manufacturing

Energy services: steam, electricity and compressed air supply and production

The challenge

 

Tonak’s ambition is to outsource the management of the energy production units and the distribution system for the utilities essential to its process (compressed air, water, electricity, steam), in order to stay focused on its core business.

 

Veolia’s solution

  • Veolia acquires and operates the energy installations: a boiler with a capacity of 50 MW
  • Produces and supplies heating and sanitary hot water both for Tonak’s site and the town of Novy Jicin (120 TJ/y)
  • Supplies Tonak’s industrial site with utilities (compressed air, electricity)
  • Management of the energy installations
  • Acquisition of the boiler house
  • Guarantees secured and efficient management
  • Guarantee reliable and quality utilities supply

 

In addition, Tonak sells the boiler house and selected energy equipment to Veolia whereas Veolia delivers all the necessary utilities to Tonak and uses the boiler house to deliver heat also to the town of Novy Jicin on a long term basis.
