Qualifying Combined Heat and Power (CHP) activity
The EU 2002 draft and 2004 final CHP Directives propose qualifying CHP activity with the quality norm. This norm benchmarks the energy efficiency of CHP plant outputs on external reference power and heat efficiencies. Because the quality norm amalgamates cogeneration and condensing activity its application entails particular perverse effects for high-quality and adapted scale investment in CHP ...

Combined Heat and Power (CHP) essentials
'CHP essentials' introduces the concept of power and heat 'production possibility sets', starting at the cradle of CHP, i.e., the thermal power generation plant. The latter always occasions 'fatal' heat that is either recovered (the 'merit' of CHP) or wasted (condensing). This split paves the way to defining the production possibility sets of CHP plants, shown for steam turbines, internal ...

Quantifying Combined Heat and Power (CHP) activity
In CHP plants without heat rejection facilities power, output is complementary to the recovery of heat, and all activity is cogeneration. CHP plants with heat rejection facilities can operate a mix of cogeneration and condensing activities. Quantifying the energy flows of both activities properly requires knowledge of the design power-to-heat ratios of the CHP processes (steam and gas turbines, ...

Using biogas for combined heat and power
An integral part of the majority of anaerobic digestion facilities across the world is the CHP combined heat and power (CHP) engine. For the first time builder of a biogas plant, it is often neglected as the focus is on reducing the capital costs of the installation. However, the engine is integral to the plant, and is the key component in the production of renewable electricity, hence the ...

Flexible Combined Heat and Power (CHP)
The essence of combined heat and power technology, over recent decades, is to provide continuous supplies of electricity and heat. This is done at the highest levels of fuel efficiency – typically reaching around 90% – meaning that this has lower carbon emissions than grid-supplied electricity. Historically thermal power plants supplying the grid rarely had heat recovery. Compared to ...
