As of January 2016, all existing large combustion power plants in the EU area will have to abide by the Industrial Emissions Directive (IED). One of the forerunners in Sweden in fulfilling the new emission monitoring and reporting requirements is LuleKraft AB in Luleå.
The main benefit is that we have changed the time frame for emission monitoring from 48 hours to 24 hours in accordance with the new directive and also included carbon monoxide monitoring. The solution is now totally compatible with the IED and the dynamic emission limit values occurring when we mix our fuel,”
