PJSC Evropeyskaya Elektrotekhniсa has presented a comprehensive solution for natural gas mining that is unusual for the industry.
A low-power gas piston generator set (GPU) in a block-modular design, presented by PJSC Evropeyskaya Elektrotekhniсa at the outdoor exhibition of the forum, was of great interest to the visitors of SPIGF-2025.
The nominal capacity of the presented power plant is 300 kW. The capacity of the supplied single units can range from 30 kW to 2400 kW (including in multi-unit design), they are suitable for operation on natural gas (CNG/LNG), liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), associated petroleum gas (APG), biogas, coalbed methane and other types of fuels. Additionally, installations can be equipped with heat recovery systems.
Special attention should be paid to the heart of the installation - the gas piston engine, its peculiarity is that it was originally designed to run on gas. In addition to the fact that it provides lower gas consumption and lower oil consumption, such an engine is easy to maintain and economical to operate, it is highly resistant to shock loads, fast dynamic response, cost-effectiveness, reliability, adaptability, and the presence of an integrated protection system.
Analogues of the gas piston installation presented at the forum have been successfully used in oil and gas drilling fields, landfills, biogas farms, coal mines and other facilities for more than 10 years.
It is important to note that gas-piston power plants are one of the most profitable solutions for organizing the process of mining cryptocurrencies due to a number of key advantages:
• Low cost of electricity
Electricity generated by gas-piston installations is significantly cheaper than electricity from central grids or alternative energy sources. The average cost of electricity received is 4 rubles per 1 kWh. This allows you to significantly reduce the cost of electricity, which is the main cost item for mining, thereby reducing the payback period of the power plant. The payback period of a power plant can vary from 1 to 3 years, depending on the field of application. In the case of GPU applications on crypto farms, the average payback period due to the high profitability of mining is a little more than one year.
• Reliable power supply
The use of its own generating capacities ensures stable and uninterrupted power supply. Mining farms operating around the clock require a constant supply of high-quality electricity, which is ensured by the autonomy of gas installations.
• Flexibility and mobility
The units are compact and easy to transport, which simplifies their placement even in hard-to-reach regions. This makes it possible to quickly deploy equipment near mineral deposits or places with access to cheap fuel sources.
• The possibility of using associated gas
For oil and gas sector enterprises, the use of gas-piston power plants is becoming an economically advantageous solution, as it allows efficient utilization of associated petroleum gas, reducing environmental damage and increasing the profitability of oil production.
Thus, gas-piston power plants represent the optimal solution for those who want to organize a highly profitable business in the field of mining cryptocurrencies, ensuring cost-effectiveness, reliability and efficiency of electricity production.
Using the financial and economic model, the specialists of PJSC Evropeyskaya Elektrotekhniсa will help you choose the most suitable engine power in terms of the expected economic effect of using a GPU.
