Combined Heat and Power

Also indexed as: CHP : Cogeneration

Gas turbines and internal combustion engines can be utilised to generate both electricity and heat. Both of these energy types can be used within a business to make best use of the fossil fuel input. CHP can be found in many industry sectors such as paper and chemicals. Smaller units can be found in hospitals, hotels and leisure centres. If electricity is not produced, the heat produced could be utilised in district heating grids.
