renewables & onsite generation
combined heat & power
Combined Heat and Power (CHP), also known as cogeneration, offers a cleaner, more efficient onsite solution to business heating and electricity requirements. It creates both heat and electricity within one single, highly efficient process. While generating heat, CHP is a process that takes traditional energy production and increases its efficiency as it captures other forms of wasted energy.
It has been used for many years in industrial, commercial, leisure and institutional applications as a stand-alone technology. CHP can be deployed quickly, cost-effectively, and with few geographic limitations. CHP can use a variety of fuels, both fossil- and renewable-based.
CHP site-produced heat provides typical cost savings of between 15% and 40% of electricity sourced from the grid and heat generated by on-site boilers. CHP also typically provides energy savings of around 20% and also helps reduce site emissions compared to conventional electrical generators and onsite boilers. CHP also gives you energy independence with the ability to provide on-site power production.
