2012 MWM TCG 2016 V16 Complete Containerised Gas CHP Unit
Description
MWM TCG 2016 V16 Gas CHP Containerised Generator – 727 kW
2012 MWM TCG 2016 V16 Gas-Fired Combined Heat & Power (CHP) Generator Set
Available for sale – complete containerised MWM gas engine CHP package
We are pleased to offer this MWM TCG 2016 V16 gas-powered CHP generator set, manufactured in 2012 and configured for efficient, continuous-duty power generation and combined heat and power applications.
Powered by the renowned MWM TCG 2016 V16 gas engine, this unit delivers approximately 727 kW of mechanical engine output at 1,500 rpm, making it an excellent solution for energy-efficient industrial power generation, commercial CHP, distributed energy and onsite cogeneration projects.
The engine is coupled to a Marelli Generators MJB 400L C4 B24 alternator, with the generator nameplate showing a 1,300 kVA rating at 400 V / 50 Hz.
High-Efficiency Gas CHP & Distributed Energy Solution
The MWM TCG 2016 V16 is designed for efficient gas-powered electricity generation, allowing operators to maximise the useful energy obtained from their fuel supply.
In a CHP installation, the electrical generation process can be combined with the recovery of useful engine and exhaust heat, allowing energy that would otherwise be lost to be utilised for hot water, space heating, process heat and other thermal applications.
This combined approach can significantly improve overall energy utilisation compared with conventional power generation where heat is rejected to atmosphere.
The containerised configuration provides a practical and compact solution for projects requiring a complete packaged CHP system. It is particularly suited to industrial facilities, manufacturing sites, commercial buildings, agricultural operations, district heating projects and other high-energy-demand applications.

MWM TCG 2016 V16 – Efficient Gas CHP Technology
The MWM TCG 2016 V16 is a high-output stationary gas engine designed for power-generation and CHP applications. Its 16-cylinder V configuration provides substantial power output within a compact engine package, while the 1,500 rpm operating speed makes it suitable for standard 50 Hz generator applications.
For operators looking to improve energy efficiency, reduce grid dependency and maximise the useful output from their gas supply, a CHP system can provide an attractive solution.
By producing electricity onsite and recovering useful engine heat, CHP technology can make significantly better use of the available fuel energy. Where there is a consistent requirement for both electricity and heat, this can provide an efficient alternative to purchasing electricity from the grid while generating heat separately.
The potential recovery of jacket-water and exhaust heat makes this unit particularly attractive for applications with substantial thermal demand.
