Greater Use of Combined Heat and Power to Support Renewable Integration
نویسنده
چکیده
It has long been recognized that combined heat and power (CHP) generation can achieve higher end-use efficiencies than conventional systems. By generating electricity at the point of use and utilizing the co-produced heat, CHP generators can achieve net efficiencies in excess of 80%. This nearly doubles the efficiency of our current system, in which large centralized power plants provide electricity, and heat is produced on site with furnaces, boilers or water heaters.
