Cogeneration

Applications

The best market place for micro-CHP, in a contest of a high potentiality, also in respect of the Kyoto Protocol targets, is that one composed by small/medium users, that need flexibility in production and are caractherized from variable energy flow demands.

It is very important, in order to check-in the investment profitability, to take into account the “fiscal drag” released by many Countries to fuels used for the production of electricity.

Tertiary

In the Residential and not Residential Buildings Sector, where it can be made easy to estimate the thermal and electrical loads, we can find a high utilization factor for CHP, and join the best economic results to very interesting energy savings.

Basically, the main sectors are:

Environment

Feeding the unit with LPG , in Mountains’ Communities, or with biogas produced through the digestion of sludges or refuse derived fuel enhances the echological contents that are intrinsecal to CHP, especially for:

Handcraftsmanship and small industry enterprises

In this sectors the CHP technology allows to manage in the best way the energy production for the manufacturing process.

Very often the resulting energy savings can be coupled to the service benefits deriving from the direct covering of power peak loads, without the needs for contracting an expensive oversized power guaranteed grant from the outer electricity supplier.
