Abstract

The invention relates to a mobile container power plant. The aim of the invention is to allow for the first time the production of a mobile power plant of this size, which produces an electric current without the emission of pollutants. To achieve this, said plant consists of a container (1), in which a drive assembly (4), a generator (3), a drive shaft with transmission gearing (5), a ventilation and deaeration system (9) and a control system (7) comprising GPS-GSM technology are installed. The mobile power plant can supply an electric current of up to 10 MW. Said electric current is environmentally friendly, as the fuel that is used consists of methanol and water or ethanol and water and produces no pollutants. Said mobile container can be installed anywhere and is autonomous as it contains a tank (10) with a capacity of up to 45,000 litres.
