Key Elements of mCHP-Strategy
 technology-open - no exclusive cooperation
 no manufacturing activities – no R&D activities
role as technology user
 testing of a variety of pre-commercial systems
under realistic conditions
 practical experience as basis
for sound assessment of technology
 transforming operation experience into forecasts
as part of E.ON Energie‘s long term planning model
 forecasting of future gas selling rates
as part of energy supply szenarios
 assessment of grid implications
regarding safety and grid issues (power and gas)

mCHP-Activities

Two units are currently being installed on a commercial basis:
Senertec:
approx. 18,000 units sold
sales rate about 2000 units/a
Price: €15,000 / €22,000
EcoPower:
approx. 1000 units sold,
450 units sold in 2006, + 50% expected in the next 2 years.
Price: €18,000
