Benefits​

​

• A highly efficient technology, by using waste heat, CHP plants can reach efficiency ratings in excess of 80%.

• Assist with regulations and legislation, from BREEAM assessment to Part L of building regulations. 

• Utilise captured heat, on-site for critical operations and processes.

• Lower your electricity costs and reduce reliance on grid energy by generating your own electricity onsite.

• Gain budget stability through predictable electricity costs and accurate forecasting of operating expenses.

• Reduce energy costs by up to 40% by generating on-site and benefitting from heat utilisation

• typical pay back is 2-3 years on a CHP system

• CHP plants can reach efficiency ratings in excess of 80%.

• Typically lower in price than traditional importation from the grid

• Utilises one fuel source to generate two energy outputs (electricity and heat), therefore creating two outputs for the cost of one fuel input

• Further savings found through the generation of electricity at the price of a single fuel import which is typically lower than the cost of importing electricity separately

• Fuel supplied to the CHP engine and the energy generated from it could be exempt from the main rates of the Climate Change Levy dependent on the efficiency of the installation

• ­Traditional energy generation consists of separate plants for electricity and heat, resulting in higher carbon emissions and considerable wasted heat

• CHP generates both energy forms simultaneously and harnesses this otherwise wasted heat to provide heating to buildings

• Fewer carbon emissions with maximum energy savings

• Lower emissions of harmful gases so is more sustainable than traditional generation

• Ability to adapt equipment to minimise noise emissions to comply with planning constraints

• We can tailor-make a solution to suit any location

• We have experience working within the education sector, hospitals, private developers, city centres and local authorities to provide flexible solutions to suit a range of sites

• We can provide operation and maintenance services, and can guarantee performance of efficiencies and outputs assuring an agreed level of financial and carbon savings

CHP should always be considered when:

​

• Designing a new building

• Installing or replacing a new boiler plant

• Replacing or refurbishing an existing plant

• Reviewing electricity supply

• Reviewing standby electricity generation or plant

• Considering energy efficiency in general

• Exploring options towards building regulation compliance

• Reducing CO2 emissions and environmental impact
