The new thermal power plant at Geneva Airport represents a significant step forward in the city's energy transition.
Using water from Lake Léman and high-efficiency heat pumps, the plant will provide more sustainable energy for the GeniLac and GeniTerre networks, which guarantee urban heating and cooling in Geneva. Due to be completed in 2026, the plant will contribute to a significant reduction of approximately 5300 tons of CO2 per year, representing a 60% reduction in emissions from the airport and a lower dependence on fossil fuels, saving 2 million liters of fuel oil per year.
GM Engenharia is involved in the design of mechanical installations, namely in the areas of HVAC, compressed air and GTC - Centralized Technical Management.
In addition to the vast experience accumulated in various mechanical engineering specialties, the company has been developing a substantial body of work in projects of District Heating and Cooling (DH&C). This area, essential for the energy transition, has been one of GM Engenharia's bets, which, with its growing know-how, is increasingly consolidating itself as a reference in the sector, offering innovative and sustainable solutions in urban heating and cooling.
