By Mark Foley
Combined Heat and Power is the generation
of electricity and usable heat simultaneously
from the same fuel input.
Electricity primarily used on-site, but can be
sold back to grid.
Thermal energy used for heating/cooling or
process applications
Large Scale
Small Scale
Micro
Generation of electricity while using heat
produced.
Higher efficiency
Use of waste or byproduct fuel
On-site electric generation avoids
distribution costs (7%)
Increased reliability and power quality
Must be Simultaneous Demand for Heat &
Electricity
Large Capital & Maintenance costs.
Require back up of power and heat
Noise from CHP units

CHP can help deliver the green agenda
Development of more efficient
technologies
Buildings & Industries can reduce carbon
footprint
Still a large capital cost
Design of CHP system for the buildings
use.
Reducing CO2 emissions from buildings.
Task for BSE to design and produce
these types of efficient systems.
