Consistent, effcient operation is key to gas-fred engines proftability. A recent survey found
that an engines effciency is signifcantly determined by the industrial lubricant used, and this
effciency directly impacts a companys bottom line.
With government incentive schemes that will make it more attractive for developers and investors,
distributed generation aims for high penetration across Thailand and can help overcome the

Interdependency of
natural gas and electricity
n February I attended a very interesting

workshop in Arlington, Virginia on the
integration of energy systems. The National
Renewable Energy Laboratory and the
Pacifc Northwest National Laboratory had
brought together some 30 international experts
in energy systems integration to exchange
information and share knowledge. The
participants came from universities, research
institutes and the energy sector.
Global electricity demand is rapidly
increasing, while policymakers aim for
sustainable electricity production with
minimal environmental impact. Countries
such as Germany, Denmark, Spain, China
and the US states of Texas, California and Iowa
have installed a considerable number of wind
parks and solar panels. During the Arlington
workshop it became very clear that agile and
fexible power generating capacity is needed
to balance intermittent wind and solar output.
Cogeneration can cheaply absorb
excess electrical energy when renewable
output exceeds electricity demand. The
prime movers of the cogeneration units can
easily be stopped in such cases, while heat
demand is covered by excess electrical
energy. Temporary heat storage in insulated
water tanks can help if heat production and
demand do not fully coincide. On-site power
generators can also respond very rapidly to
demand variations if renewable production
Renewable energy subsidies and very cheap

coal sometimes make gas-based generation
uncompetitive, and insuffciently developed
gas distribution infrastructure means that gas
cannot always be made available. In some
cases the pipelines fow capacity is so small
that electricity generators are disconnected
during cold spells with high gas demand for
heating. And gas companies do not always
guarantee good gas quality anymore, so the
performance of gas-using equipment suffers.
Yet the benefts of cogeneration and on-site
electricity production for an integrated energy
supply system are so high that policymakers
should remove any barriers. The solutions are
easy:
Open markets for natural gas, without an
artifcial link to oil prices, can reduce gas
prices;
The best backup techniques for facilitating
the integration of a large amount of
renewables should not be pushed from
the market by inadequate subsidies for
renewables;
Pipeline systems can be extended, while
local gas storage in underground caverns
can be added at very low costs;
Gas companies can easily ensure that
customers receive gas of a close to constant
quality.
In my opinion, the cogeneration and on-site
power sector should participate more actively
decreases. The units can help to stabilise the

grid during contingencies and compensate
for demand forecasting errors. Natural gas is
known to be a clean and convenient fuel for
local generators and is abundantly available
worldwide, especially with todays shale gas
production.
At frst glance, this would create an excellent
future for cogeneration and on-site power
production. However, a number of issues
diminish emerging optimism. In some areas
of the world, the prices of natural gas and
oil are artifcially linked, so gas can be three
to four times more expensive than in the US.
in think tanks and advisory boards to ensure

a rightful position for its versatile technologies.

Gearing up for growth of

distributed power in Asia
ts no coincidence that global energy

and engineering giant GE launched its
new distributed power business in Jakarta,
Indonesia the company then announced
that it has nearly completed the supply of 100
gas engines for on-site power projects being
carried out by Navigat Energy in Indonesia
and Thailand. The size of its collaboration with
Navigat illustrates the current market available
to GE Distributed Power, said the company,
but other initiatives point to a wider optimism
for this part of the world.
The potential market for decentralised
energy in Asia is attracting the attention of
major companies, with some forming joint
ventures to meet what they clearly see as a
healthy level of opportunity. Mitsubishi Heavy
Industries (MHI) and Hitachi have signed a
collaboration agreement on distributed gas
engine activities in China; and Gas Malaysia
and Tokyo Gas are working together on
industrial CHP projects in Malaysia. Meanwhile,
both the industrial CHP and district heating
sectors in South Korea continue to be buoyant.
GEs 100 gas- and biogas-fuelled Jenbacher
engines will provide a total of 330 MW of
on-site power capacity to remote parts of
Indonesia and Thailand, in many cases where
grid power is unavailable or less than reliable.
And, while natural gas is very much the fuel
of choice, 30 of these engines are for palm
oil biogas projects. Navigat also operates GE
gas engines in Singapore, and is currently
developing a 50 MW power plant based on
power offerings, as governments increasingly

encourage the use of small-scale power
systems that are easier to fnance and install
than larger power stations. But patchy grid
coverage and reliability, and the existence of
many small islands, may be equally important
factors in some countries.
Moving north to China, MHI and Hitachi say
they anticipate a rapidly expanding market
for gas-fuelled distributed power; indeed, the
government plans 50 GW of new capacity by
2020. MHI says it has a well-established record
of introducing distributed power systems to
Japan, and the two companies now plan a
full-scale entry into the Chinese market.
Meanwhile, Tokyo Gass specialist energy
services, CHP and district energy company,
Energy Advance Co, plans to export the
cogeneration know-how it has built up
in Japan to serve industrial customers in
Malaysia, working with the countrys gas
supply company. Just one scheme is currently
identifed, but the two companies have much
wider ambitions; Gas Malaysia is keen to
explore all options for new uses of gas.
Finally, the frst weeks of this year saw
the announcement of a 250 MW coalfred cogeneration scheme being built
to serve South Koreas Gunjang industrial
zone featuring steam turbine technology
from Siemens Energy. And Koreas KEPCO
Engineering
and
Construction
has
announced plans for an even bigger 440 MW
gas-fuelled cogeneration plant to supply heat
16 more GE gas engines in Myanmar.

GE is also developing, with local consultant
PLN Enjiniring, a local power solution for
Indonesias many small islands combining
small-scale gas fuelling systems with
gas turbine and gas engine generation
technologies. Local gas-fuelled generators will
minimise the need for pipeline infrastructure
on many islands, assist with peaking power
demands and replace diesel generators.
The company says Southeast Asia is an
important growth area for its distributed
and power to Osan City, south of Seoul, using

gas turbine technology from MHI.
With the more traditional markets of Europe
and North America hardly breaking any
records, these are welcome moves.

Comment
Sochi to substations
Security concerns predominate
hile
not
without
controversy
or
turmoil, the Winter
Olympics in Sochi
concluded safely and brilliantly,
marking the frst time the event
had been held in Russia since
the breakup of the Soviet Union.
However, the spectre of terrorism
hung over the Olympics in light
of credible threats to disrupt the
peaceful atmosphere of the
games. Whether at an international
sporting event such as the
Olympics or in the provision of dayto-day services such as electricity,
in this day and age, security of
people and critical facilities will
always be paramount. That is why
the revelations in a recent article
in the Wall Street Journal detailing
attacks on the power grid in
California are so chilling.
Jon Wellinghoff, who recently
stepped down as chairman of
the US Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission (FERC), told in detail
about the methodical takedown
of the PG&E Metcalf substation
in California, which is a critical
facility for service into Silicon Valley,
and why he calls this the most
the possibility of an explosion that

would have brought immediate
and unwanted attention to the
attack. The shell casings found
were free of fngerprints, another
indicator that this was not just a
random incident. It took PG&E
27 days to bring the Metcalf facility
back online.
In discussions I have had with
Wellinghoff, what is of even greater
concern than this single incident
is the relative ease with which it
can be replicated throughout the
US and the severe consequences
if this were to happen. He has
indicated that, based on studies
done while at FERC, if a relatively
small number of similar substations
went down in strategic locations
then the entire grid could be
disabled relatively quickly. While
other federal authorities are
disputing whether this was an
act of terrorism, based on these
facts and consequences, it really
does not matter what you call it.
Although a great deal of attention
has been devoted recently to the
cyber threat, the chain link fence
and camera are our frst lines
of defence against an outright
signifcant incident of domestic

terrorism involving the grid that
has ever occurred in the US.
Wellinghoff details the timeline
of the attack, which began with
cutting communication cables in
an underground vault, followed
by 19 minutes of fring of over
100 rounds, likely from an AK-47, into
the cooling fns of 17 transformers
that caused them to leak
52,000 gallons (197,000 litres) of oil,
overheat and crash. By targeting
the fns the assailants avoided
physical attack that can have

devastating consequences.
While, no doubt, much more
can be done to protect this
infrastructure, it will always suffer
from some degree of vulnerability
as it is a large, attractive and
relatively soft target. Wellinghoff has
always been a strong supporter of
decentralized energy technologies
and he readily agrees that this
is one of the ways to provide
greater energy security. Multiple
points of smaller generation can
make the grid more robust and

secure whether the attack is
from a superstorm or a terrorist.
While poles and wires can be
replaced relatively quickly (but
not always cheaply), an attack on
transformers and other hardware
can take longer to repair and
cause a more profound service
disruption. The challenge going
forward will be for grid-based and
decentralised energy technologies
to work together to provide better
service and greater security for the
end user.

forward.
Edmund Campion, director
of research and development
at APR Energy, explains, We
use a matrix of manufacturers
recommendations,
best
practice based on application
performance and historical
internal knowledge of what we
have seen on the engines.
Gas
turbines
suck
in
enormous volumes of air,
and if even a small speck
of contaminant (pollution,
smoke, dust) gets though the
fltration system it will inhibit
operations. The frst thing that
falls off in performance when
a turbine struggles to breathe
is the cooling air to key
components. If it loses cooling
air, that component burns out.
Engines are set up with
instrumentation to look at
pressure drops across fltered
media. Campion says, We
only change air flters, fuel
flters and pre-fuel flters
when pressures go out of the
specifcation that we have
set in agreement with engine
manufacturers. That way we
dont damage equipment
and get maximum life out of
the flter media.

Campion says, We have

We have customers in

means we can diagnose

and actually solve them online
from the UK. On-call engineers
can dial into the system as
soon as they are alerted. It
can take as little as two hours
from a phone call from the
customer to the adjustment
of parameters on the system.
The old-fashioned way involves
Careful management can extend a turbines life
give service technicians and

engineers a much more
detailed understanding of the
condition of the plant. It also
demands that maintenance
engineers are now multi-skilled
in control and mechanical
functions, as well as profcient
at interpreting and deploying
specialisedsoftware.
Regular servicing is the

key to effciency
Gas turbines need servicing
at regular intervals. Mike Fisher,
president of oil, gas & industrial
services for Wood Group
GTS, explains, The moment
you load up the turbine, the
machine starts to degrade.
They are on a timer to the end
of useful life of that unit.
Traditional
maintenance
schedules are based on
operational
hours.
The
manufacturers
recommend
scheduled inspections based
on run hours and time periods.
A gas turbine might require
servicing at 4000 hours or
semi-annually. With 8760 run
hours in a year, the turbine
would have two inspections in
a typical year.
But careful management
can extend the life of a gas
turbine. Fisher says, If you
run at 100% load you are
absolutely running at the red
line of that engine. To extend
the life of the unit the best
thing you can do is to fnd that
reduction. If you back it off to
95%, the machines will likely

degradation rates are much

However, while a reduction in
this fring temperature may
improve longevity, reducing

lower
emission
engines may be counterproductive as these have to
operate at predetermined
high temperatures to achieve
their design combustion and
emission levels.

to use remote monitoring to

is happening in the plant.
Thousands of measurements

Wood Group GTS Fisher says,
We use the remote motoring
service to give indications of
the health of the machine.
Data are streamed to our
feld service customer base in
Houston, Texas and analysed
by complex algorithms which
alert technicians to any
change in status. Monitoring
involves looking for exceptions:

Turbines
Uwe Kaltwasser of says that
his company typically records
6070 parameters for gas
turbines, although not all
of them are continuously
transmitted. The more data
recorded and observed by
remote monitoring systems,
the better the indication of
engine condition is, he says.
Other data systems are used
to collect information for other
parts of the power plant.
Investing in early
warning systems
Gas turbine main bearings
serve the critical function of
supporting and controlling the
position of the shaft and rotor.
It is not possible to predict
damage to bearings but

using sophisticated systems
can enable early warning
signs to be detected from the
lubrication oil.
This is another area where
technology
is
advancing.
Chip
detectors
work
by
absorbing
microscopic
magnetic particles from the
oil, which stick to a sensor
that gives a signal, raising
an alarm. A sophisticated
proprietary on-line lubrication
oil debris monitoring system
can be installed, providing
continuous assessment of
the health status of all main
bearings in a gas turbine,
signalling damage at a very
early stage and providing
real-time trending information
about the development of
the damage. This enables
operators to quantify the
amount of material that has
been shed without shutting
the gas turbine down, and to
swiftly differentiate between

a slow wear or startup wear
issue and a rapidly developing
fault. This can be invaluable in
deciding on the appropriate
course and speed of action.
Kaltwasser says, On-line oil
monitoring systems can give
early indication of component
failure. This can be linked
to the engine control and
trigger an early warning. It
is an expensive system and
customers ask what the beneft

is. A bearing failure may result
in a signifcant consequential
technical damage of the
engine, so it is technology that
pays for itself by preventing
unforeseen failures.
His experience is that
operators
who
have
experienced such failure will
invest in the technology, while
others are prepared to take
the risk of operating without it.

Online servicing
Increasingly, techniques are
being devised to carry out work
on a plant while it operates.
The compressor wash is
a key part of gas turbine
servicing. Dirt accumulates
on the air inlet side which
compresses air to be burnt.
If the machine is offine, a
cold wash, using water and
detergent, will be used to fush
it out. A cold wash involves
shutting down the machine for
a number of hours. However,
an
interim
PLC-controlled
compressor wash can be
done online, which increases
the interval to the offine wash.
OEMs are developing online
hot
section
borescoping.
This process is used for
visual inspection work on
inaccessible areas of the
turbine. A borescope is a tiny
camera on a fexible tube
suitable for insertion into
narrow tubes. Borescoping
currently takes place when

the machine is shut down.
Components are removed
from the rear of the engine
and a fexible borescope is
introduced into the turbine
looking for rates of change of
deterioration in the hot gas
path. Online borescoping
has the potential to provide
updates on the internal
condition of the turbine without
disruption to production.
Advances in materials
technology
The thermal effciency of gas
turbines can be increased
by using components able
to withstand higher working
temperatures. Single crystal
super-alloy turbine blades
operate at higher temperatures
than crystalline turbine blades.
MTUs Kaltwasser says there
is a trend for an increased
installation of single crystal
material which can be used at
increased temperatures and

pressures, doubling the life of
hot components.
Laser sintering similar to
3D printing for plastics uses a
laser to weld powder particles
to create a component.
Siemens plans to deploy laser
sintering to replace process
nickel to repair gas turbine
burners.The technique requires
a 3D model, powder and
sintering equipment.The old tip
of the intact burner is turned off
and a replacement is printed,
reducing repair time from
44 weeks to four. The company
says that the frst laser sintered
SGT-800 gas turbine burners
show better material properties
than cast ones.
Once we are ready for
serial production, this will allow
us to be closer to the customer
and provide better service
on demand, Siemens head
developer Vladimir Navrotsky
explains.
Perfect solutions
for CHP
Power plants need regular

attention. Automation can
improve effciency but human
interaction will always be
necessary.
Wood Groups Fisher sums
up the importance of an
interactive servicing regime:
All gas turbines are constantly
talking to their operators.
The question is whether their
operators are listening. A gas
turbine can fail really quickly so
you have to be listening. They
are high performing units a
Formula 1 car, not a tractor
and they have specifc needs.
You have to listen to what they
are saying.This is the role of the

Update on fuel cell CHP development
Fuel Cell CHP

passes the point of no return
The use of fuel cell technology in combined heat and power applications is
commonly viewed as being at an early stage of development. However,
Arjen de Jong and Martin Horstink argue that signifcant advances in the
last 12 months mean this is no longer the case.

Recent boom
Japan, and to a lesser extent
South Korea, is leading the
world in fuel cell CHP. Japan
has come a long way, with its
long-term programme called
ENE-farm to develop fuel cell
CHP technology and persuade
end users to buy it. More than
80,000 units are installed, with
sales numbers exceeding
yearly sales of other micro-CHP
technologies. And funding
for this programme will likely
be prolonged for the next few
years (see Figure 1).
But the drivers for fuel
cell CHP in Europe are also
extensive. Germany is the
European leader in the uptake
of fuel cell micro-CHP systems.
Callux, an extensive feld test
programme started in 2008,
has installed and tested over
500 systems. And fuel cell
micro-CHP systems can proft
from several subsidies and
20
tax exemptions in Germany,

making it an economical,
attractive solution.
A joint initiative of the
European Commission and
industry has designated fuel
cells as a key technology
for the EU and has set up
a large R&D programme to
support this development,
with an expected budget
increase
of
1.4
billion
(US$1.9 billion) for 20142020.
CHP is an important pillar in
this programme. One of the key
CHP projects today is Ene-Field,
in which up to 1000 fuel cell
micro-CHP systems will be
deployed. The frst installations
are installed already and the
project is steadily progressing.
In the US, Bloom Energy is
becoming a big player in the
stationary power production
market with its fuel cells. The
company has announced
that it could turn a proft in
2014. Although its system is not
yet designed and packaged
as a CHP system, the volume
of production and onward
technological developments
hold big promise for further
cost reductions and effciency
improvements. Bloom Energy
sees good markets in Europe
and recognises the signifcant
opportunities for a system
with heat recovery, though
the frst CHP system from this
manufacturer has yet to come.
FuelCell Energy, another
important international player
in the feld of large-scale
stationary fuel cell power, has
started a joint venture with
Fraunhofer IKTS called Fuel
Cell Energy Solutions (FCES).
FCES has been set up to serve
the European market and
has recently reported that the
frst product from its German
production site is scheduled
for mid-2014.
A bright future ahead

Besides
scaling
up
in
production,
several
new
Fuel Cell Energy Solutions CHP power plant produces

fundamental
technological
breakthroughs can bring further
cost reductions. A spearhead
of these breakthroughs is,
among others, limiting the use
of rare earth materials.
An example of one such
breakthrough is SiEnergys
thin-flm solid oxide fuel cell
(SOFC). The thin-flm concept
allows operating temperatures
of 350C, in contrast to present
SOFCs that generally operate
between 650C800C. The
low operation temperatures
allow for fast startup and load
following capability. Due to the
thin-flm technology, use of rare
earth metals is marginal and
production can be based on
chip industry manufacturing
processes.
Another
noteworthy
development is that of ACAL
Energy. ACAL is developing a
radical redesign of the fuel
cell concept with its FlowCath
technology, enabling zero
degradation and 80% less
use of platinum in a PEM

fuel cell. Their concept
has already been proven
during
10,000
hours
of
operation, an equivalent of
300,000 automotive miles.
And there are many more
interesting innovations under
development. Technological
developments like these will
keep renewing the business
models and will lower the total
costs of ownership.
High expectations
Expectations for fuel cell
CHP in the EU are high. This
became clear during the
fourth conference of the Fuel
Cell Expertise Network (FCEN)
in October 2013 in Amsterdam.
Major existing suppliers like
Bloom Energy from the US,
Australia-based CFU (also
known as CFCL) and Aisin from
Japan showcased their past
results and future plans. These
companies
have
already
established a large installed

who
believes that fuel
cells are stuck in

needs a reality check.
Last year brought several
remarkable key moments in
fuel cell development:
Fuel cells were outselling
other micro-CHP technologies
for the frst time in history;
The
frst
fuel

manufacturers began to break

Startup of several new
production sites; and
Prolonged public funding in
Europe and Asia for hydrogen

And the end of these
positive developments is not in
sight, with 2014 promising new
commercial product releases,
especially in the micro-CHP
feld. Thus, the general outlook
for fuel cell CHP is excellent. In
fact, many organisations have
invested heavily and will have
to pursue the way up in order
to keep investors satisfed.

Another
major
breakthrough comes from
the Viessmann Group and
Panasonic. They have jointly
developed a new fuel cell
cogeneration system, which
will become the frst polymer
electrolyte fuel cell (PEFC)
system available for single
homes in Europe. It will be

sold by Viessmann, starting in
Germany in April 2014, and will
bring Japans well-developed
fuel cell technology to Europe.
Germany and the UK
already have incentives for
investments in (micro-)CHP. In
other countries, developments
are also ongoing. For example,
in the Netherlands,the province
of Gelderland will implement
a
micro-CHP
investment
subsidy for households in 2014.
The goal is to install at least
10,000 micro-CHP systems
in the coming years, and
expectations are that fuel cell
systems will take a signifcant
share from this subsidy.
The market potential for
CHP systems in the residential
segment amounts to millions
of units. The CODE2 project
and ENE-Field are currently
researching this topic. With
this enormous potential the
expectations for fuel cell
systems are high. Numerous

manufacturers
hope
that
they will deliver the next
innovative
generation
of
fuel cell technology. Their
request, however, is a Europewide, extensive market entry
programme which will enable
a further ramp-up in production
and provide opportunities to
broaden the market.
Other innovations
Other
niches
also
offer
opportunities for fuel cell
CHP systems. Plug Power
manufactures a full suite of fuel
cell-based products designed
to ft seamlessly into the existing
battery
compartments
of
material handling equipment.
The company has announced
almost $30 million in bookings
in recent months. Plug Power is
targeting a break-even quarter
in mid-2014, and predicts that
major reductions in service
and product costs lie ahead.

such developments, in the
form of further product and

and the (expected) cost
reductions that accompany
larger production volumes.
Risks must be managed

Notwithstanding
bright
prospects
and
recent
technological and market
developments,
risks
and
challenges still exist. In the
2000s,
European
utilities
overinvested in fossil fuel
generating capacity, boosting
it by 16% Europe-wide and
by more in some countries.
The
projected
electricity
demand increase has not
been realised, as demand fell
with the fnancial crises. Energy
companies are struggling to

adapt to this new environment,
especially in countries with a
sharp growth in renewables, so
they are not likely candidates
to pick up this development
soon. But maybe the large
number of local initiatives in
the EU will.
Due to the abovementioned
overcapacity, low demand
for electricity and the infux
of cheap renewable power
production, the spark spread is
at a historic low, which makes
the fnancial business case for
(fuel cell) CHP systems hard
these days. In the residential
sector, this effect is less severe
due to taxes and VAT payments
on gas and electricity.
Although
the
potential
for fuel cell-based CHP is
enormous in the residential
market, serious competition
from other technologies exists.
CHP, mainly gas-based, has
become a highly effcient
and
reliable
alternative
for heating over the past
20 years. In the past, fuel cell
manufacturers have focused
on product reliability and
reducing cell degradation.
Some manufacturers have
developed
products
with
an astonishing lifetime of
60,000 hours, or even more.
In the coming years, fuel cell
manufacturers will have to
fulfl expectations regarding
cost price reductions, to
show that they can become
competitive in the long term
and that the potential can
be tapped in the near future.
Preferably a large number
of manufacturers should be
active on the market, to handle
market demand and create a
credible and constant supply
of fuel cell CHP.
movement that places fuel

cell CHP as a key component
of the European energy mix.
With fundamental changes in
European energy markets and
strategy revisions by major
energy companies, the big
question is: who will pick up
these chances frst?
With many major players
involved, there is no question of
how big fuel cell CHP is going
to be. Rather, the question is
whether the high expectations
for Europe can be met, and
who will take advantage of the
opportunities frst.

Combined-cycle CHP in urban areas
CHP
and
the
city
Maximum effciency, minimal space
Over half the worlds population now lives in cities, which account for twothirds of the energy and 60% of the water consumed on the planet and also
generate 70% of greenhouse gases. Natural gas-fred combined-cycle CHP
plants can address these challenges by maximising fuel use and minimising
space requirements in urban areas, write Lothar Balling and Michael Baum.

he world continues
to
be
energyhungry, with global
demand
expected
to rise between 1.8% and
2% per year. This increase is
driven primarily by booming
regions in Asia, such as
China and India. Soaring
energy demand is also
being fueled by the planets
growing population and the
need for greater mobility.
But where are these masses
of people going to live, and
how
can
a
sustainable
standard of living be secured?
These are fundamental issues
that policymakers must solve.
It is commonly expected that
the trend toward urbanisation
will continue to accelerate.
Additional megacities and
large metropolitan areas will
develop, resulting in the need
to optimally use available
urban space and establish
infrastructure and services that
support and enhance urban
functional capabilities.
Dsseldorfs new Lausward combined-cycle CHP plant will produce 300 MWth of district heat
Infrastructure
requirements
include the construction of
housing,
streets,
hospitals
and energy and water supply
lines, just to mention a few.
Functional services include
the provision of electricity,
water, heat (such as for
district heating) and cooling
for hospitals or warehouses.
District heating applications
range from traditional home
space dictates that electricity

and heat generation facilities
should not only ft into the
available space, but should
be customised to supply both
electric power and district
heat to save space for double
installations.
Another
consequence
of creating megacities and
large
metropolitan
areas
is the production of great
volumes of greenhouse gases
in a relatively small area. Not
only are greenhouse gases
contributing to global warming,
but they also pose considerable
health problems to people
living in densely populated
areas. Industrial settlements,
which are usually located in
the vicinity of cities or large
around midday on a summer

day in Germany, consumption
may steeply rise in countries
where cooling aggregates
run at high loads. For the
latter, heat extraction driving
absorption cooling machines
may provide economical and
ecological benefts.
Another major effect of
the expected urbanisation is
the increased consumption
of water. Not surprisingly,
policymakers have declared
fresh water as the planets
scarce resource in the future. It
is expected that the demand
for cooling water alone will
increase by 50% by 2035
(compared to 2012 fgures).

southern Germany, where

With
renewable energy sources
especially wind and solar
developing into an important
player in the current and
future
power
generation
mix, the effective integration
of these fuctuating energy
sources will require other
plants to compensate for
anticipated high loading and

concerns
that

Thus, such facilities should

Cities will provide fertile
ground for launching and

Combined-cycle

plants (CCPPs) based on CHP
technology can achieve these
cross-functional requirements.
Urban space development

has come a long way, starting
from early settlements around
fertile grounds, to the origin
of smaller cities, with some of
them growing to megacities
or being connected via highspeed transport routes into
large metropolitan areas.
With over 50% of the worlds
population now living in cities,
it is no surprise that around
75% of the worlds energy
consumption occurs in these
dense urban areas. This, in
turn, means that most of the
pollution also originates in
these areas.
But future cities will not only
be affected by environmental
degradation, but also by other
challenges such as increased
population, changing climate
conditions and energy scarcity.
The requirements for urban
space development must
for energy will be primarily

satisfed by traditional fossil fuel
sources such as oil, coal and
gas. Since oil is considered a
scarce resource, it is argued
that energy scarcity may
evolve as one of the future citys
problems if this dependency
on oil cannot be substantially
reduced by other means,
such as the electrifcation of
transport.
The energy performance
of a city and its capability to
reduce its per-capita energy
consumption and carbon
footprint is vital for a citys
survival and its ability to
deal with future challenges
such as rising energy prices
and environmental shocks.
Therefore it is no surprise that
cities are already looking for
ways to reach energy autarchy
and rely mainly on renewable
resources and environmentally
friendlier and highly-effcient
CCPPs with CHP technology.
Recent research suggests
that an integrative approach
of combining infrastructure
modules will help establish
so-called resilient city centres
which will enable effective
and redundant infrastructure
management.
By combining water and
waste management, biomass
fuel (e.g. methane) can
be obtained and used as
supplementary fuel to natural
gas for a combined-cycle
plant.
Todays gas turbines can
account for growth and density

management, as well as
energy performance, including
establishing a modularised
energy infrastructure to ensure
a fexible and redundant
operation of the energy system
and hence a sustainable and
vital city life.
Energy is needed throughout
cities and metropolitan areas
to support transport, heating,
cooling and industries. In the
coming decades, the demand
already burn a combination

of biomethane and natural
gas. The electric power of the
CCPP is fed into the district grid
and the heat is used for district
heating, food production
(greenhouses) and water
purifcation services. The idea
behind this arrangement is to
use locally generated services
(heat and power) for local
use and thus avoid losses
attributable to feeding in these
services over long supply lines.
Combined-cycle CHP

Siemens SGT5-8000H lies at the heart of Lauswards new CHP Block F
An aging infrastructure
Another aspect is also worth
considering for urban space
development and the special
requirements
associated
with energy infrastructure:
the aging of the systems and
the resulting challenges to
developers.
The
aging
energy
infrastructure
problem
becomes apparent when one
considers that most of the
current energy systems in the
Western world were installed
in the boom years following
these new technologies and to

improve the carbon footprint
of the citys infrastructure,
such
as
installing
CHP
systems. With respect to district
heating, planners will revise
the possibilities to extend
the citys heating network
to increase the degree of
capacity utilisation of the CHP
systems and avoid duplicate
installations and unnecessary
space
consumption
for
installing separate heat and
power systems.
Space restrictions may also

the end of their useful life. In
the US, for example, half of the
power plants are more than 30
years old and feed into electric
distribution systems that are
between 30 and 50 years old.
The need for replacement
opens ways to provide new and
more effcient technologies
that can supply reliable
and affordable energy. City
developers will therefore look
into ways to accommodate
apply to new installations. It

is therefore preferable that
new power plants be built on
existing industrial (brownfeld)
sites. CCPPs can be fexibly
designed to reduce the plants
footprint and thus avoid sealing
further greenfeld areas. One
example is the CCPP singleshaft design which arranges
gas turbine, steam turbine
and generator in a single line,
allowing for a space-optimised

Everything You Always Wanted to Know about

Hydrogen Safety for Large Turbo-Generators *
*but were afraid to ask.
Catastrophic events have reinforced the critical importance of safety and risk mitigation strategies in power
plants worldwide.
Demand for increased generator rating, without increasing the physical size of the generator, has led to hydrogen
being utilized as a coolant medium. The minimum size (megawatt output) of a generator to be considered for the
use of hydrogen as a cooling medium will vary between manufacturers, but the fact that hydrogen has better heat
transfer characteristics and is less dense (providing less windage losses) has made it a standard coolant for large
turbo-generators.
Steve Kilmartin, Director of products and markets from E/One Utility Systems will discuss the pros and cons for
using hydrogen, methods used to measure gas purity and dew point, and issues to consider.
What you will discover:

and
strengthening
the
infrastructure
to
counter
present and future challenges.
Dsseldorf, the state capital
of
North-Rhine-Westphalia
in Germany, has shown how
these
requirements
and
challenges can be solved
with the installation of its new
Lausward Block F CCPP.
With over 500,000 residents,

Dsseldorf is a commercial
and industrial centre. The city
has committed to lowering its
CO2 emissions by 10% every
fve years.
The local utility, Stadtwerke
Dsseldorf (SWD), supplies
around
15,000,000
MWh
electrical
power
and
around
1,300,000
MWh
thermal
(district
heating)
power
to
its
consumers
annually. SWD is extending
its district heating network by
15 MWth/year to further lower
the citys carbon footprint.
SWD has three power and
heat
production
centres:
Flingern, Garath and Lausward,
all located within the city limits.
In May 2012, SWD signed
a contract with Siemens to
install a highly effcient CCPP
with CHP technology at its
power and heat production
center in Lausward. The new
plant (Block F) will be a new
benchmark with about 61%

net effciency in condensing
mode and approximately 85%
fuel utilisation factor. This new
facility will replace an older
CCPP plant, which is near the
end of its useful life and will
be placed on so-called coldreserve status.
The heart of the new plant
will be the SGT5-8000H gas
turbine, which is one of the
most effcient gas turbine
available in the 50 Hz market.
The size and effciency of
this
machine
allows
for
300 MWth of district heating
to be produced by this CCPP
without supplementary fring.
And by incorporating a special
three-stage heat extraction
design, the effciency of the
system can be maintained
at high levels throughout the
entire range of heat extraction.
At the important load case of
150 MWth, the power loss fgure
is as low as 0.16.
In order to save valuable

space, it was decided to build
Block F in a brownfeld area
that was previously occupied
by the large fue gas treatment
towers of the former coal-fred
power blocks. The available
space is rectangular, allowing
for a single-shaft design which
limits the plants footprint. The
design enables the maximum
use of the available site and
thus minimises urban space
requirements.
Since Lausward and its
power plants are clearly visible
from the famous city centre,
special attention was paid
by SWD to achieving a high
level of acceptance by the
citys planning department.
Dsseldorf has its own urban
lighting concept, which is
especially apparent at night
when major landmarks are
illuminated. Lausward and its
power plants is one of these
special locations.

The Block F plant can be run

fexibly to cover part-load and
full-load cases for power and
district heating export. Thanks
to its powerful gas turbine
and its high load gradient of
35 MW/minute and startup
times of less than 40 minutes,
temporal
fuctuations
of
renewable energy feed-in can
be compensated and can
generate additional income
by providing grid services.
The environmental impact
of the new plant is very low
because of its advanced
burner design and high
effciency.
The
specifc
generation of kg of CO2 per
kWh produced is extremely low
in comparison with other fossil
technologies. Specifc carbon
emissions are especially low
where district heating is also
included in the equation.
But
most
importantly,
by integrating Block F into
the
overall
modularised
generation infrastructure, SWD

can optimise its generation
feet on a short-term basis
and achieve a high level of
fexibility and redundancy for
its power and district heating
production.
Rather than choosing to
import power from another
centralised generation facility,
SWD decided to follow its
successful
decentralisation
concept and install the new
plant within the city to keep
transmission losses to a
minimum.
The plants high effciency
will also help reduce the load
on the Rhine River, which is
used for cooling functions.
Environmental
studies
conducted during the permit
process showed that the
impact of the new plant will
be negligible and therefore
the aspect of environmental
integration can be considered
as being fulflled.
Planning for the future

Urban areas require special
attention because of their
sensivity
towards
climate
change and pollution. Given
the trend towards megacities
and
densely
populated
metropolitan
areas,
these
problems will be critical in the
21st century. Policymakers and
communities therefore need to
revitalise their key infrastructures
to
avoid
collapse
and
environmental shocks.
The
latest
combinedcycle power plants with
CHP technology can help
overcome these problems by
maximising fuel utilisation and
therefore reducing greenhouse
gases
substantially.
The
fexibility of CCPP operations
enables the production of
power and heat as required
and thus satisfes demand
when needed.
Dsseldorfs
new
CCPP
Lausward Block F provides an
excellent example of how other

urban space requirements are
minimised by relying on highlyeffcient technology.
This new plant will make
Dsseldorf more resilient to
present and future challenges
and ensures its status as a vital,
attractive and remarkable
centre. Construction is already
in full swing, core products are

A good lubricant can help extend

oil drain intervals and, consequently,
reduce energy and operating costs.
Many of these benefits translate
into less downtime the highest

The survey had four goals:

To determine the types

To determine the factors
which govern the selection
and purchase of engine oil;
To determine potential
customers expectations of
high-performance engineoil;
To determine the impact
of effcient gas engine
operations and industrial
lubricants on company
business and fnancials.
Almost two thirds (65%) of
survey participants indicated
that they were either likely
or very likely to
install
gas-powered engines for their
power generation needs.

The industry professionals
agreed that engine oil is a
key component in the effcient
operation of gas engines.
According to survey results, 65%
of respondents felt that the role
of the engine oil in gas engine
performance optimisation is
either quite important or very
important.An additional 20.5%
believe it to be important.
Thus, 85% of all respondents
felt that the role of the engine
oil was signifcant with regard
to gas engine performance
optimisation (see pie chart

Additionally, survey results

the survey respondents would

recognise the signifcant role
lubricant selection plays in
optimising the performance of
gas engines, given their crucial
role within the oil and gas and
power industries.
In the current climate of
rising energy prices, industrial
organisations are taking more
of an interest in ways to optimise
performance. It is therefore
key that decision makers
understand that an advanced
lubricant can help extend
the life of an engine, increase
power output, extend oil drain
intervals, improve fuel effciency,
and, consequently, reduce
energy and operating costs.

only nominal benefts. Or,
perhaps more worryingly, it is
neglected unintentionally by
those who do not understand
the signifcant benefts it may
offer.
Minimising downtime is one
of the most important benefts
of engine optimisation. More

a gas engine is important,
but
how
do
institutions
maintain consistent engine
optimisation? While a number
of periodic measures may
be implemented as part of a
monthly or annual preventive
maintenance regimen, few
agents of effciency actually

Upgrading
from
a
conventional mineral oil can
help to signifcantly reduce
unscheduled downtime by
ensuring engine components
have the required protection
under a range of operating
conditions.
When asked to rank fve
(given) expectations of a highperformance engine oil in
order, respondents placed less
downtime at the top of the list.
This coincides with the
earlier assertion that downtime
has a signifcant, negative
fnancial impact.
Extended engine life also
ranked high in the survey. No
doubt, the impetus for making
these
selections,
whether
directly or indirectly, was
economic.
Effciency saves money

Owners and operators of
natural gas engines continue
to seek ways to reduce their
energy costs. While much
can be said about a variety
of aspects of gas engine
effciency, few benefts of
effciency are as compelling
as its positive effect on an
organisations bottom line.
The use of a well-designed
lubricant gives a number of
primary cost benefts including:
Extended oil drain intervals;
Extended engine life;
Increased
equipment
reliability;
Increased power output;
Improved
operational
effciency, reducing energy
consumption.
A strong confuence of this
opinion was observed in the
responses of those surveyed.
Nearly three quarters (72%)
of respondents indicated fve
or higher on a 10-point scale
that
measured
sentiment
pertaining to the energy
effciency potential of an
industrial lubricant on an
organisations bottom line (see
bar graph on opposite page).
Commenting on the fnding,

Jacobsen said: The research
clearly demonstrates that the
effciency of a gas-powered
engine
is
signifcantly
impacted by the engine oil
used, and this effciency, or
lack thereof, directly impacts
an organisations bottom line.
More than ever, customers
increasingly understand the
value and importance of
selecting the most appropriate
gas engine oil for them
and the potential fnancial
implications of doing so.
The advanced technology
used in the Mobil SHC Pegasus
series can also increase
fuel effciency compared to
conventional oils. In addition,
high-performance gas engine
oils can help to realise wider
monetary savings.
For example, a customer
was recently looking to reduce
the amount of gas engine oil
it purchased. We advised the
customer to switch to Mobil
Pegasus 1005, which can help
to reduce oil consumption
thanks to its high-quality base
stock and advanced additive
technology.
The customer reported that
since switching to this product,
it has experienced a 23%
reduction in oil consumption
in 3500 hours of operation
when compared to the
performance of the previous
gas engine oil.
The results of this survey clearly
demonstrate that the effciency
of a gas-powered engine is
determined in large part by
the engine oil used. Thus, the
consistent, effcient operation
of gas engines, supported by
high-performance lubrication
and oil condition monitoring,
is therefore crucial to ensure
trouble-free
and
effcient
operation.

PDP is implemented based on
electricity demand growth rate,
Thai GDP, government policy,
a national energy effciency
development plan (EE plan)
and an alternative energy
development plan (AEDP).
The PDP2010 Rev3 (20122030) is currently in use,
although the new PDP2014
(20132030)
has
been
prepared and its approval is
expected this year.
Under the current PDP2010
Rev3, new generation capacity
of 55,130 MW is planned to
replace the retired power
plants (16,839 MW), which
will result in a total national
generation
capacity
of
70,686 MW at the end of 2030,
as shown in Table 1.
The majority of new power
plants are combined-cycle
natural gas turbine (CCGT)
plants, at 25,451 MW, and
SPP cogeneration plants at
6476 MW.
However, the government
is also focusing on promoting
renewable energy in order to
diversify the fuel type usage
in the power sector. The
renewable target was originally
set at 9481 MW, but has been
adjusted to 13,603 MW to be
in line with the new Alternative

cogeneration plants fuelled by

natural gas or coal. Recently,
renewable energy for potential
on-site generation has been
included in the SPP scheme.
SPP
cogeneration
can
provide
an
economical
and
reliable
source
of
electrical
and
thermal
(PES), with PES 10% to get the

full FiT (THB0.36/kWh).
The SPP scheme offers
two types of contract: a frm
contract for 2025 years, and
a non-frm contract for fve
years. Under such a contract,
the SPPs sell electricity to EGAT,
but they are also allowed
are running under frm contract.

The rest are coal or lignitebased cogeneration plants
(12%) and renewable energy
plants (18%).
An example of the electricity
tariff for frm SPP natural
gas-based
cogeneration
includes a capacity payment
adjusted for fuctuations in the

gas price (Pt) at the time it is
purchased from the Petroleum
Authority of Thailand (PTT).
The
FS
payment
represents
the
effciency
of the cogeneration plant
compared
to
separate
conventional electrical and
energy for industry, increase

overall system effciency by
contributing to the grid during
peak load times, avoid big
investment costs for large
centralised
power
plants,
and reduce transmission and
distribution losses.
To qualify as a SPP
cogeneration, a plant must
utilise 5% of waste heat;
and
must
demonstrate
performance
achievement
through primary energy saving
to sell electricity directly to

industrial
customers. Both
contracts allow the sale of up
to 90 MW to EGAT based on
their guaranteed generating
capacity. A frm contract will
receive a capacity payment
and an energy payment, while
a non-frm contract will receive
only an energy payment.
As of December 2013,
the majority (70%) of SPPs
under operation are natural
gas-based CHP plants which
(CP), an energy payment

(EP) and a fuel saving
(FS) payment.
The CP represents the base
capacity payment (CPo) of
the long-run avoided cost of
an EGAT large combined-cycle
power plant, which is valued at
THB420/kW
and
adjusted
for exchange rate variations
compared
to
the
base
exchange rate of that month.
The EP represents the base
price of gas (EPo) per kWh,
thermal generation through

the PES principle. A fuel saving
incentive ranges between
THB00.36/kWh,
depending
on the PES achievement.
To get the full incentive of
THB0.36/kWh, the plant must
achieve a minimum PES of 10%.
For
a
non-frm
gas
cogeneration contract, the
tariff includes only the EP, which
is based on the price of natural
gas price announced every
month by EGAT. The EP will be

adjusted by a factor based on

the selling time during on and
off-peak times. The non-frm
tariff is commonly lower than
that of a frm contract, as
shown in Figure 1.
Under
both
contracts,
electricity tariffs are based
on the passed on fuel cost,
as depicted in Figure 2.
Therefore, the more the gas
price increases, the more the
SPP electricity tariff income
increases. This is one reason
why the SPP cogeneration
market in Thailand provides
a secured project cash fow
even in a high gas price
environment.
Figure 2 shows the trend of
natural gas price increases
over the last three years.
The electricity tariff for SPP
gas
cogeneration
moves
in the same direction as
the natural gas price, so
and
construction,
which
means that SPP licences have

US ENERGY POLICY OUTLOOK FOR 2014
Contact: Carol Connors

Director of Government Affairs
WADE
cconnors@localpower.org
On 28 January, US President
Barack Obama addressed the
nation on myriad of national
agenda
goals,
including
energy. He called natural
gas the bridge fuel that can
power our economy with less
of the carbon pollution that
causes
climate
change.
Many in the industry would
argue that natural gas is
more than a transition fuel
it is a destination fuel, the
fuel of the future for US
domestic production and
consumption
because
of
the abundant resource base
that has materialised from
hydraulic
fracturing,
and
resulting low costs (aberration:
natural gas prices have
recently shot up this winter,
particularly in the northeast,
because of frigid weather
and
constrained
pipeline
infrastructure). In response
to environmental concerns
about
fracking,
President
Obama urged Congress to
create Sustainable Shale Gas
Growth Zones to ensure we
develop shale gas the right
way, although no details were
given. He promised to assist
investments in new factories
that would run on natural gas
and he called on legislators to
encourage the construction
of natural gas fueling stations
and create new jobs. The
President also affrmed that
climate change is a fact.
President Obama stuck to his
guns on the Environmental

Protection Agencys efforts to
issue rules on future power
plant emissions and expected
rules this June on current
power plant emissions. The
President proposed a new
fuel-neutral tax break for
alternative-fuel vehicles and
tax reform to encourage
renewable
energy.
There
was no mention of possible

approval of the Keystone XL oil
pipeline. President Obamas
all-of-the-above
approach
to energy is heralded by
some and criticised by others.
Supporters say he is balancing
US energy development and
environmental protection while
opponents claim he cannot
do both simultaneously.

the recent disclosures of cyber
assaults on retailers Target,
Nieman Marcus and other
customer accounts where
personal
information
was
stolen, there is potential public
momentum to move this bill.
With respect to physical
threats to the US power
grid, former Federal Energy
Regulatory
Commission
chairman
Jon Wellinghoff
publicly warned the week of
3 February that he believes a

real terrorist assault occurred
last April on PG&Es Metcalf
substation in California, the
Wall Street Journal reported.
He was then chairman and
investigated
the
incident,
along with Pentagon offcials
and the FBI. If found true, the
attack, while physical and not

how
vulnerable the US electrical
infrastructure is to incursions.
CYBERSECURITY / POWER GRID ATTACK

Primary legislation that may
have a chance to actually
pass this year in Congress is
the National Cybersecurity
and Critical Infrastructure
Protection (NCCIP) Act, which
has bipartisan support. In
brief, it would codify and
solidify authorities within the
Department of Homeland
Security (DHS) to address
liability issues related to
cybersecurity threats, remove
information-sharing
barriers

and provide for continuous

monitoring.
With
some
changes, the measure could
also include some fnancial
grants and other incentives
for electric, natural gas,
hydropower and oil pipelines
to protect against cyber
attacks on physical assets.
Of particular concern is
a cyber attack on the US
bulk power system and the
electricity transmission grid,
which could result in massive

KEY US SENATE CHAIRMANSHIP CHANGES
CCS CONGRESSIONAL HEARING
With the retirement of Senator

Max Baucus (D-MT) who
chaired the powerful tax-writing
Senate Finance Committee
and his Senate approval as
the US ambassador to China,
Senator Ron Wyden (D-OR)
took the reins at the Finance
Committee

The
House
Energy
and
Commerce Subcommittee on
Oversight and Investigations
held a hearing on 11 February
to investigate the DOEs carbon
capture and sequestration
(CCS) programmes. CCS is
facing stiff scrutiny, since the
EPAs draft GHG emissions rule
for new power plants proposes
that they use CCS, which is
seen as extremely costly and
unproven.
The
Subcommittee
members queried DOE offcials
about when DOE would
Landrieu (D-LA). Representing

a signifcant energy-producing
state, she is a strong promoter
of tax breaks for oil and gas
development, favours
the
construction of the Keystone

supports LNG and crude
oil exports and opposes a
national renewable portfolio
standard (RPS). In these
leadership positions, Senators
Wyden and Landrieu could
substantially
change
the
political landscape for new tax
and energy policy.
ELECTRIC RELIABILITY
In early February, Senator Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), ranking member
of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, urged
the EPA to collaborate with FERC and NERC to analyse the impact
its new draft regulations for power plants will have on electric
grid reliability. The recent polar vortex and other cold weather

that coal plants, the primary targets for closures to reduce

paper addressing the effects of environmental rules on baseload

Foreword
RELIABLE, EFFICIENT AND

ENVIRONMENTALLY BENEFICIAL
elcome to the 2014 edition

of the Guide to US CHP
Companies, published by
PennWell. It is an honour
to write the foreword to this important
publication.
This year promises to be another
exciting one for combined heat and power
(CHP) in the US. Strong support from the
Department of Energy (DOE) and the
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
through the Advanced Manufacturing
Offce and CHP Partnership respectively
have really propelled the issue of combined
heat and power to the forefront of energy
effciency decision-making.
CHP systems are generally twice as
effcient as conventional non-CHP power
plants, providing not only energy effciency
but also global climate change benefts.
These benefts have not gone unnoticed.
The World Wildlife Fund recently released a
report highlighting the many environmental
benefts of CHP. The Natural Resources
Defense Council has also published work
highlighting the benefts of CHP. Other
organisations are doing the same or will be
issuing new studies this year.
CHP technologies produce both
electricity and steam from a single fuel at
a facility located near the consumer. These
effcient systems recover heat that normally
would be wasted in an electricity generator,
and save the fuel that would otherwise
be used to produce heat or steam in a
separate unit. Currently, there is about
82 GW of CHP capacity in the US, which
accounts for about 12% of the nations
electric generation. In his August 2012

Executive Order, President Obama called
for an added 40 GW of CHP by 2020.
CHP systems are generally at least 75%
effcient, as opposed to traditional power
plants with boilers with no more than 45%
effciency. CHP has a smaller environmental
impact than large, off-site power.
In the aftermath of Superstorm Sandy
in 2012, critical buildings such as hospitals
had power due to their CHP systems. CHP
can withstand severe storms and other
causes of blackouts, providing power
during those critical times.
Since 1980, about 50,000 MW of CHP
capacity has been built in the US. Industry
growth and certain drivers indicate
promising CHP markets in the food
processing, ethanol production, hospital,
utility, industrial/manufacturing, district
energy, government and commercial/
industrial sectors.
The CHP Association brings together
diverse market interests to promote the
growth of clean, effcient local energy
generation in the US. It is a private,
non-proft 501(c)6 trade association,
originally formed in 1999 to promote the
merits of combined heat and power and to
achieve public policy support for CHP.
Within the last year the association has
expanded greatly, adding ten new members
in just the last six months. Our membership
includes Chevron, Capstone, Cummins,
Solar Turbines, Caterpillar, General Electric
(GE), Rolls-Royce, Southern California Gas,
ICF International, Mosaic, Nexant, Broad
USA, and many other companies, as well
as the Department of Energy Technical

Assistance Partnerships.
The CHP Associations mission is to
increase deployment of CHP systems
in the US in the industrial, commercial/
institutional and residential sectors. We
provide advocacy, networking, education
and marketing information to companies
and promotes sound clean energy policy
and marketplace solutions that support
investment in combined heat and power.
The CHP Association documents the
benefts of clean heat and power for the
public and decision-makers. The association
sponsors conferences, workshops and
advocacy events for its members, and
prepares reports and releases to educate
the public about clean heat and power.
We provide opportunities for our
members to network with each other
and with key government offcials. The
CHP Association participates in federal
agency programmes to promote CHP,
waste energy recovery, and other forms
of distributed energy. In particular, we are
committed to the DOEs CHP Program and
the EPAs CHP Partnership Program.

AN ENERGY RESOURCE
FOR THE TIMES

CHP
nterest is heightening in combined heat

and power (CHP), as several factors
converge to make it an energy resource
for the times.
First, US utilities are prioritising
infrastructure projects that improve grid
resiliency, following recent crippling
storms that knocked out power in major
cities, sometimes for weeks. They are
pursuing ways to harden the grid against
such natural disasters. CHP often is integral
to these plans. Installed on-site, CHP keeps
the lights on, the computers whirring, and
the heating and cooling systems operating
even when the grid goes down. In fact, a
federal task force published a rebuilding
strategy following Superstorm Sandy
that cites the good job CHP units did in
keeping hospitals, water treatment plants
and other critical facilities operating, while
grid-dependent buildings remained in
the dark.
Second, state and federal agencies are
seeking ways to reduce carbon dioxide
and other harmful emissions by increasing
environmental restrictions on coal-fred
power plants and older boilers. This is
leading to retirement and replacement of
polluting units, creating an opportunity for
CHP as a cleaner replacement.
Third, utility rates have been rising.
Owners of commercial buildings, stores,
hotels, factories and other large energy
users are seeking ways to reduce their
utility bills over the long term. CHP offers
a way to escape the escalating costs of
grid power.
For all of these reasons, CHP has become
a national energy priority. In August 2012,
President Barack Obama underscored the

importance of the resource by signing an
executive order that sets a goal for the US
to develop 40 GW of new CHP by 2020,
about a 50% increase over current levels.
THE UTILITY DEATH

SPIRAL AND HIGHER
ELECTRICITY RATES
Energy thought leaders have been
sounding an alarm that electric
utilities could face a death spiral in
the coming decade. As described,
the death spiral occurs as more and
more customers install distributed
generation and stop buying their
electricity from utilities. This leaves
fewer customers to cover the utilitys
embedded costs for infrastructure.
So utilities must raise rates. This
causes more customers to fee and
then utilities have to raise rates
even higher.
Distributed generation [DG] could
kill utilities as we know them today.
It could take a decade or more in the
United States, but some European
utilities already are facing changeor-die challenges due to DG, wrote
fnancial advisory frm Morningstar in
its February 2014 paper, Distributed
Generation: The Death Spiral.
If utilities see a 3% annual drop in
electricity sales, they will need to raise
rates almost 4% annually to maintain
an 8% return on capital, according
to Morningstar. The threat to utilities
grows even more as distributed
generation technologies improve and
their costs fall.
HOW
CHP
IMPROVES
PRODUCTIVITY
ENERGY
The Alliance to Save Energy has

spearheaded a campaign to double US
energy productivity by 2030. Energy
productivity refers to the amount of
economic output achieved from a unit
of energy (expressed as dollars of Gross
Domestic Product (GDP) per unit of energy
consumed in British thermal units).
CHP is an important part of the plan
because of its tremendous effciency in
fuel use.
Think of it this way. If you buy
your electricity from a utility, you are
participating in a system that literally lets
energy disappear into the sky, which is
unwise from both an economic and an
environmental perspective. Conventional
power plants make no use of the excess
heat created in electricity production. In
fact, the US wastes more heat in generating
power than all of the energy used in
Japan.
Most US power plants throw away
two thirds of the fuel used in production
in the form of waste heat. As a result,
the effciency of utility fossil fuel plants
averages only about 33%, according to the
US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
Rather than discard the heat produced in
the generation process, as large gridconnected power plants do, CHP uses
the by-product to heat, cool or humidify
the building, reclaiming one third of the
energy that would otherwise be lost. These
on-site units make productive use of almost
all of their fuel and can achieve effciencies
of 70%95%.
CHP
HOW CHP SAVES MONEY
Businesses save money by using less
fuel when they employ CHP. But the cost
savings only begin there. CHP also can
help:
Reduce capital costs;
Hedge against escalating fuel prices;
Protect core business revenue; and
Reduce certain utility charges.
Those who are building a new facility,
or renovating an older one, may be able
to reduce capital costs by installing CHP
in place of boilers or chillers. CHP can also
help energy users hedge against unstable
electricity prices. When utility rates rise, a
facility can forgo use of utility power and
instead rely more heavily on its on-site
generation. In addition, the facility may
be able to fuel switch, depending on its
confguration. So if the price of one fuel
becomes high, the facility can switch to
another fuel to run the unit. CHP systems
often can be confgured to accept a variety
of fuels, such as natural gas, biogas, coal
and biomass.
CHP users may also see some of their
utility service bills decline, particularly if
the local utility calculates demand charges
based on a customers peak electricity
usage during a specifc time, usually a
month. A customer that uses CHP lowers
demand costs by reducing the amount of
power it buys from a utility. It is able to
do this because it generates at least part
of its power on-site, and because it uses
waste heat rather than electricity to heat,
cool or humidify the building. And, fnally,
companies with on-site boilers will fnd less
need to operate them, minimising the wear
and tear on the boilers and preserving
their longevity.
On the state level, several states

incorporate CHP into Renewable Portfolio
Standards or Energy Effciency Portfolio
Standards. Some also offer favourable
fnancing terms for CHP projects. For more
details on state and federal incentives, see
the Further Information section (page 41)
to this guide, provided by the EPAs CHP
Partnership.
STATES ARE RAMPING

UP CHP DEVELOPMENT
IN VARIOUS WAYS
GOING INTO 2014
The American Council for an EnergyEffcient Economy (ACEEE) scrutinises how
well states foster CHP as part of its annual
state energy effciency scorecard. The report
considers portfolio standards, fnancial
incentives, net metering, interconnection
standards and emissions treatment in
determining state scores for CHP.
The Northeast and Mid-Atlantic states
tended to score high in the 2013 scorecard.
In fact, fve of the top 10 states were in
these regions. Like the previous year,
Massachusetts topped the list, achieving
4.5 out of a possible 5 points, faltering only
on its net metering polices. Massachusetts
is known for its special portfolio carve-out,
aimed largely at expanding CHP. Called
an Alternative Portfolio Standard (APS),
the programme began in 2009 with a

requirement that utilities and competitive
suppliers secure 1% of their supply from
resources specifed in the APS. The
requirement increases each year by 0.5%
until 2014 and by 0.25% from then on. It
has led to rapid escalation of CHP since
then. As of early 2014, Massachusetts had
79 MW of CHP installed.
Other states were ramping up CHP
development in various ways going into
2014.
New York has created a Green Bank to
leverage private fnancing for green energy
projects, including CHP. With an initial
capitalisation of US$210 million and a
planned initialisation of $1 billion the bank
began seeking applications in February.
Separately, the New York Power Authority
began offering $800 million in fnancing
for energy effciency technologies. And
Consolidated Edison, which serves New
York City and suburbs, put into play a
strategy to add 25 MW of CHP.
Nearby New Jersey offers incentives for
two types of CHP: commercial and industrial
CHP and fuel cells that use non-renewable
fuel sources, such as natural gas; and
renewable energy or biomass systems.
In Texas, state lawmakers passed a bill
(HB 2049) that removes regulatory barriers
and improves the business climate for CHP.

INCENTIVES FOR MORE CHP

Aware of these benefts, the US government
has increased incentives to encourage
CHP. States are leading the way with the
Obama administration providing fnancial
assistance.
On the federal level, projects can take
advantage of a 10% investment tax credit
for CHP projects that are smaller than
50 MW; for fuel cells the credit is
equal to 30% of expenditures and for
microturbines10%.

ACEEE OUTLOOK FOR CHP: MOSTLY
SUNNY, A FEW CLOUDS
How does the market for CHP look for the
near future?
R Neal Elliott, ACEEEs associate director
for research, described the business and
regulatory climate as mostly sunny
but there are clearly some clouds on the
horizon that we need to be watching for.
These include:
Utility wariness about distributed
generation;
An overly optimistic view by the CHP
industry about the pace of new federal
emissions regulation;
Volatile natural gas prices.
The CHP plant at One Penn Plaza supplies over half the 57-storey buildings electrical needs

from CHP plants. It allows the plants to sell

electricity and heat to multiple customers.
Texas legislators understand the
need to remove regulatory barriers and
HB 2049 is one example that will help
usher in new cogeneration project
opportunities. The Texas Combined Heat
and Power Initiative (TXCHPI) believes
that this policy change will help the entire
Texas grid by relieving grid congestion,
increasing grid capacity and reducing the
amount of water used in the generation of
electricity, said Paul Cauduro, executive
director of the TXCHPI.
Texas also paved the way for more CHP
in 2012 by issuing a new Permit by Rule
(PBR) for stationary natural gas engines
and combustion turbines for CHP systems

up to 15 MW. The new PBR is expected
to signifcantly spur project development
because it cuts both permitting time and
equipment cost. It takes into account
fuel type, technology, operating hours
and location of the unit. PBR emission
limits are specifed in terms of emissions
per unit of total output including thermal
and electrical energy, according to
the TXCHPI.
Meanwhile, Oregon approved a bill
(SB 844) that allows natural gas distribution
utilities to invest in projects that yield
greater effciency. CHP projects ft this
description because they use natural gas
more effciently than central power plants.
On utility wariness, Elliott points to

battles that have occurred in Arizona,
California and North Carolina over net
metering. While these disputes centre
largely on solar, they indicate retrenchment
by utilities as they grow increasingly
concerned about revenue erosion from
distributed generation.
Meanwhile, at the federal level, emissions
regulations open up new opportunities for
CHP but perhaps not as quickly as the
industry assumes. The EPA is in the process
of creating rules to limit carbon dioxide
(CO2) emissions under the Clean Air Act.
Final rules are expected to refect the
effciency of CHP. Because it produces heat
and power from one fuel, CHP presents a
lower CO2 profle than centralised fossil
fuel plants that offer only electricity. But
Elliott cautioned that the CHP industry may
not see business opportunity from the EPA
rules for years to come. The pace of federal
rulemaking is often slow and the rules are
likely to face a legal challenge, he said. In
addition, the rules will be implemented
state by state, which also could take some
time and may also be subject to lawsuits.
All of these factors combine to create
industry uncertainty.
And, fnally, natural gas the fuel used
by most US CHP plants is again showing
signs of price volatility, which could add to
the uncertainty, Elliott said. The US now has
abundant natural gas and prices are low.
This has led some in the industry to assume
that prices would remain stable. But low
prices and price stability are not one
and the same, Elliott noted. Prices at the
CHP
REAL WORLD EXAMPLE
CHP provides power to NYC building at fraction of grid price
As the fourth largest offce building in New York City, One Penn
Plaza operates on one of the most constrained electrical grids in
the US. Located in midtown Manhattan, the 57-storey building
is situated above Penn Station at 34th Street and 7th Avenue,
adjacent to Madison Square Garden. It has a total peak electrical
demand ranging from 10 MW11 MW in the summer and
6.5 MW7 MW in the winter.
The real estate investment trust (REIT) that owns One Penn
Plaza needed to provide a reliable source of power to its tenants
that would also contribute to the goals of both New York City
and New York State to reduce grid demand, increase energy
effciency and reduce energy costs: New York States initiative
for a 15% energy reduction by 2015, and former Mayor Michael
Bloombergs goal of adding 80 MW of distributed generation to
the city by 2030.
On average, the REIT earns between $10,000 and $12,000

per day. Peak Power One removes 2025 million kWh per year
from the citys power grid, while providing 60% of the electricity
and 30% of the steam requirements for One Penn Plaza The
effciency of the CHP system stands in contrast to power
generated at the utility, where power arrives at the building at
40% of each volt generated from the source. The on-site power
supply signifcantly reduces the buildings carbon footprint
roughly 2800 metric tonnes are offset each year. By capturing
waste heat from the generators and reusing it to power the
buildings heating and cooling systems, the CHP system achieves
a combined effciency of more than 80%, which is more than
double the effciency of power supplied by the grid.
A plant of this kind has never been done before its one of
a kind, says Brogan.
SOLUTION
The REIT created a limited liability company to manage its onsite energy plant, and contracted with energy services company
GI Energy in 2009 to install a CHP system to sell power and
steam directly to the tenants of One Penn Plaza. The tenants
receive a monthly energy bill from the LLC as specifed in their
leases, and the price of their utilities mirrors the cost of those
provided by the local utility, Consolidated Edison.
The difference lies in the cost to produce it, says John
Brogan, senior vice president for GI Energy, which developed
and operates the plant.
The result is a state-of-the-art 6.2 MW CHP plant. Three of
Caterpillars Cat 2055 kWe gas generator sets are installed with
heat recovery steam generators (HRSGs) that are all housed in a
sound-attenuated enclosure on the roof of a twelfth foor setback
at One Penn Plaza. The housing is two stories tall and weighs
around 295,000 kg. The generators are tied to the electrical
services of the main building. Waste heat from the engines is
processed through the HRSGs to produce high-pressure steam,
which is then used to offset the buildings steam load. The steam
is used in the summer months to cool the building with steam
turbine chillers. In the winter, the steam preheats domestic
water and conditions the temperature of secondary water. The
cogeneration plant produces just under 6 MW of power in the
summer and 4.5 MW in the winter, which amounts to more than
half of the electrical demand for One Penn Plaza during the
same time periods.
Because we are using natural gas as our fuel source, and
because we have highly reliable engines, we can actually
produce the electricity for a fraction of what it would cost to buy
it from a centralised utility, Brogan says.
RESULTS
Cat dealer HO Penn served as a primary partner with GI Energy
on this project, both on the front-end sales and also for the long
haul through a fve-year maintenance and service agreement.
We have gone through the initial startup phase with
this plant and have had a lot of interactions with people
at many different levels of HO Penn, Brogan says. From
senior management to the feld service coordinators,
to the actual service technicians it has really been a
team effort.
And, it takes a full team, he continues. If I had only the
salesman, and a lot of Caterpillars competitors only have the
salesman, it doesnt get you to the fnished product you are
looking for. So, you really need to have everybody from sales
to the technical side, and once your plant is running, you have
to have a qualifed service team that can support it. And, if
you have all of that together, the whole project is completed
successfully, and you have a plant that is making a lot of money
for its owner.
During Hurricane Sandy in 2013, One Penn Plaza barely
missed being fooded, unlike other parts of New York City.
We were pretty fortunate this plant did well in the storm,
Brogan says. Con Edison steam wasnt working, and we were
able to heat part of the building with hot water that we were
already supplying from the cogen plant.
One of the many advantages of the cogeneration plant is
that it can run independently and supply some of the buildings
power during a major storm.
As long as you have natural gas, this system was designed
to be turned on and run without the utility being there,
Brogansays.
benchmark Henry Hub in Erath, Louisiana

rose 35% to $3.73/MMBtu in 2013,
according to the US Energy Information
Administration (EIA). Meanwhile, natural
gas transportation constraints in New
England caused December 2013 prices
to spike to $14.52/MMBtu. Only twice
before have prices reached that level in the
Northeast, according to the EIA: during
10
the 2008 fnancial crisis and the 2005

hurricanes Katrina and Rita.
On the positive side, coal plants are
retiring, opening up new capacity needs
that CHP can fll with cleaner supply. The
EIA predicts that 60 GW of coal-fred units
will retire by 2020.
In addition, CHP is becoming more
compelling as regions seek to strengthen
their electric sector against storms,

Elliott said.
And, fnally, he pointed out that new
approaches are emerging to aggregate
CHP and energy effciency investment.
In early 2014, Joule Assets launched a
$100 million private equity fund that is
aggregating small and medium-sized
energy effciency projects. And Kilowatt
CHP

Financial and Citi partnered to securitise

a pool of energy effciency loans into
the capital markets. Their goal is to help
establish a secondary market and scale for
energy effciency.
Other companies are aggregating
energy savings achieved by consumers,
businesses and institutions, and selling
the commodity into capacity markets,

particularly in the PJM Interconnection and
ISO New England markets. This approach
importantly puts energy effciency on
an equal footing with power supply in
wholesale markets.
As always, forecasting CHPs prospects
in the US is a state-by-state endeavour,
Perfect solutions
for CHP
Elliott said. The market can vary widely, with

some parts of the country booming and
others near silent. It is not a synchronised
national picture.
One of the challenges is that the
opportunities for CHP, as weve always
known, are state and regionally specifc.
That situation doesnt appear to be
changing, he said.
Local peculiarities often determine
opportunity. For example, the Northwest
offers little potential for new CHP at this
time and isnt likely to for many years
because electricity prices are so low in
the region.
On the other hand, promising
opportunity exists in the coal states, such
as West Virginia, Ohio and Kentucky. And
in Texas the market is shifting. Opportunity
used to reside in the petrochemical and
refning industries. But many of those
opportunities have been realised. Now
possibilities for CHP are opening up in the
Texas hospitality, university and hospital
industries, according to Elliott.
The InteliSysNT and InteliGenNT

ranges are high quality, reliable
generating-set controllers with
ideal features for CHP.

hanks to advanced drilling

techniques, the US is experiencing
an energy renaissance, with a
surge in natural gas supplies. Total
domestic production of natural gas has
increased by 20% since 2008, according to
Americas Natural Gas Alliance (ANGA).
This is a game-changing turnaround from
just a few years ago. Then, the country was
beginning to build ports to import liquefed
natural gas (LNG). Now, it is looking to
use the facilities instead to export LNG.
The American Gas Association (AGA)
estimates that North America has enough
natural gas for 100 to 150 years, just
using todays exploration and production
technologies.
As a result, the natural gas industry
is seeking new customers, and CHP is a
key prospect.
People ask me what keeps your
membership the producers up at
night. It is having the opportunity to sell
that gas. Their biggest concern is that
the demand markets really need to be
growing at a faster pace. That is why we
see opportunities in combined heat and
power, said Michelle Bloodworth, senior
director of power generation at ANGA.
About 71% of US CHP plants use natural
gas. As a result, CHP accounts for 18% of
US natural gas demand. These plants are
benefting from natural gas prices that have
reached historic lows. The AGA estimates
that prices will remain low through 2030,
as shown in a chart from its report,
The Opportunity for CHP in the United
States, prepared by ICF International - see
page 14.
About 82 GW of CHP now operates in

the US at 4100 sites, and potential exists
to add another 124.7 GW of CHP plants
that are sized below 100 MW, according to
the AGA. Of these, industrial installations
represent 56 GW and commercial or
institutional projects account for 68 GW.
What will encourage this new
growth? Natural gas prices, for one. But
environmental considerations are playing a
big role too.
One of the greatest drivers were seeing
is the environmental restrictions that are
causing older coal generators to be retired.
It is creating a big need for generating
capacity, Bloodworth said.
In total, about 8.8 GW of coal-fred
generation shut down in 2012, as did
5.8 GW in 2013, according to an SNL
Financial analysis. Because many of the
plants are 4565 years old, it is often
cheaper for utilities to close them down
and seek supply elsewhere.
CHP LOWERS EMISSIONS
What makes CHP a good replacement for
coal?
A typical utility plant burns fuel to
convert water into steam. The steam drives
a turbine to produce power. Or, in other
instances, gas is burned, causing it to
expand and drive a gas turbine. In addition
to producing power, the process creates
heat or steam. But these by-products are
discarded, rather than put to good use.
In contrast, CHP optimises fuels like
natural gas. Less fossil fuel use means lower
emissions of carbon dioxide, nitrogen
oxide and sulphur dioxide.
CHP advocates say the resource would

beneft from a broad federal policy that
recognises its environmental benefts. But
so far the US has resisted a national carbon
dioxide (CO2) cap and trade programme.
Even a clean energy standard, which
would require that states secure a certain
amount of their power from low- or zeroemissions resources, has been unable to
pass Congress.
STATES SELL EMISSION

ALLOWANCES AND
INVEST THE PROCEEDS
IN CLEAN ENERGY
Meanwhile, several states have moved
ahead on their own. For example, nine
states in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic
regions operate under the Regional
Greenhouse Gas Initiative, or RGGI, which
went into effect in 2009. States sell nearly
all emission allowances through auctions
and invest a large amount of the proceeds
in clean energy, including CHP.
RGGI states encourage use of CHP to
lower emissions, and use part of the money
from the programmes allowance auctions
to fund such clean energy approaches. In
all, the auctions had accrued $1.4 billion
as of June 2013. The states allocated over
50% of the money to effciency efforts,
according to Environment Northeast.
Meanwhile,
California
is
taking
signifcant steps to reduce greenhouse
gases by 25% by 2020 through its Global
Warming Solutions Act. The state held its
frst carbon allowance auction in November

CHP
CLEAR AIR RULES HELP CHP

With Congress unwilling to consider a
national cap and trade programme, the
Obama administration has ordered the
Environmental Protection Agency to put
CO2 restrictions in place through the Clean
Air Act. In late 2010 the agency issued
guidance for greenhouse gas emissions
permits that makes energy effciency the
centrepiece of its compliance options.
Energy recycling techniques, including
CHP and related waste heat recovery,
are incorporated as cost-effective ways
to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the
industrial sector. The environmental
agency also explicitly mentions CHP and
waste heat recovery as Best Available
Control Technologies (BACT), which will
allow industrial plants to employ energy
recycling techniques as a way to satisfy the
EPAs permitting requirements.
The EPA has continued to move forward
with the CO2 standards. In September
2013, the agency proposed standards for
new power plants, and it is expected to do
the same for existing plants in 2014.
On another front, in 2012 the EPA
fnalised Clean Air Act pollution standards
known as National Emissions Standards for
Hazardous Air Pollutants for Major Sources:
Industrial, Commercial, and Institutional
Boilers and Process Heater, or ICI Boiler
MACT. The standard applies to large boilers
in a wide range of facilities and institutions,
according to the Department of Energy,
which is offering technical assistance to
ensure that those facilities burning coal
or oil know about strategies they can
use to comply, such as installing natural
gas CHP.
After the standards were released, the
Alliance for Industrial Effciency encouraged
boiler owners and utility regulators to seize
the opportunity to create new clean power
with CHP and waste heat recovery (WHR).
By our analysis, if all of these boilers

largest climate polluter, according to the

installed natural gas-fuelled CHP or WHR

systems, they could generate in excess
of 25 MW of clean, effcient power the
equivalent of 50 conventional power
plants, the group said.
OUTPUT-BASED STANDARDS
The federal MACT rule uses outputbased environmental standards to test
emissions, a trend also underway in several
states, and one that effciency advocates
say is encouraging. Rather than measure
emissions based on a power plants heat
input or exhaust concentration, outputbased standards recognise the value of
effciency. That is, they acknowledge that
CHP units use less fuel and therefore emit
less pollution to create the same amount
of energy as conventional systems.
CALCULATING EMISSIONS
The EPA CHP Partnership has developed
an Emissions Calculator to quantify the
emissions reductions from combined
heat and power: http://www.epa.gov/
chp/basic/calculator.html. The calculator
compares the anticipated CO2, sulphur
dioxide and nitrogen oxide emissions from
a CHP system to those from a separate
heat and power system. The calculator also
translates the emissions reductions into
tonnes of carbon equivalent, emissions
from passenger vehicles, and acres of
fr or pine trees. In addition, the EPA has
published reports verifying the greenhouse

gas reductions of various CHP technologies
and other advanced energy systems:
http://www.epa.gov/nrmrl/std/etv/vt-ggt.
html#advanceenergy.
CHP offers other environmental benefts
as well. These units are typically located
at existing industrial or commercial
facilities. Therefore, no new green space is
required for their construction, preventing
displacement of fora and fauna. Further,
because the units are sited near the
customer, they require no signifcant
construction of new power lines. And,
fnally, CHP tends to use less water, an
especially important consideration in
western states. In contrast, central thermal
power plants require large amounts of
water for cooling, much of which may
evaporate in cooling towers before it can
be recycled. CHP generally does not use
cooling towers.
TRIED AND TRUE
CHP serves todays environmental needs,
but it is not a new technology. In fact, the
technology is more than a century old.
In the early days of the power industry,
simple forms of CHP were common.
Systems generated power where it
was required in the factory, mill or
mine. Invariably, the excess heat was
put to good use, possibly for industrial
processes or space heating.
CHP
Later, this energy alternative became the
domain of large, complex manufacturing
facilities, such as chemical plants and
paper mills. Next, it became apparent
that CHP is cost-effective for a range of
energy users, among them hospitals, food
facilities, stores, universities, data centres,
hotels, athletic facilities and multi-family
residential buildings.
Today, CHP is perceived as a
green technology that solves several
contemporary energy problems. In a
world where electricity is central to our
commerce, communications and everyday
functioning, CHP stands as a source of
energy we can count on. In addition, CHP
lowers our energy costs, a basic input for
any developed economy, so helps make
America more competitive globally. And
after doing all of this, CHP also reduces
greenhouse gases in a world increasingly
worried about climate change.
But how does CHP work? Not in the
traditional way. The customer does not
buy electricity from a utility and obtain
heat separately by burning gas or oil in

a furnace. Instead, the customer receives
both services from a single source,
typically a small heat and power plant
that is located on-site.
As a result, consumers have more
control over their electricity supply and
consumption because they can customise
CHP equipment for their unique needs.
In some cases these systems provide all
of the power for a facility, and in others
they partially offset power from the grid.
It is important to note that CHP is not one
specifc technology, but any application
that simultaneously produces two or more
forms of energy from a single fuel source
typically, heat and electricity from gas.
A
CHP
system
might
include
reciprocating engines, combustion or gas
turbines, steam turbines, microturbines
or fuel cells as the prime mover. The
thermal energy from CHP can be used in
direct process applications or indirectly
to produce steam, hot water, hot air for
drying, or chilled water for cooling.
Natural gas is the dominant fuel used in

CHP plants. But CHP units also use gases
from landfll sites and sewage treatment
facilities, and biomass solid waste from
agriculture and forestry.
BIOMASS HAS
EMERGED AS A FUEL
WITH ENORMOUS
POTENTIAL
Biomass, in particular, has emerged as a
fuel with enormous potential, as US energy
planners push for greater use of green
energy. Biomass comes from any plant or
animal mass. Crops, trees, and animal and
plant waste are burned or converted into a
burnable gas.
Biomass fuels include wood, sawdust,
combustible agricultural waste, biogas
created in anaerobic digesters from the
breakdown of organic matter (such as
wastewater sludge or farm waste) and black
liquor, a by-product of the pulping process.
CHP plants are usually most cost-effective
15
CHP
if they operate near the source of
their fuel.
Biomass-fred units are ideal for
agricultural or forestry industries, where
a plentiful supply of fuel exists. Sawmills,
pulp and paper mills, sugar cane farms,
dairies and poultry farms provide so much
biomass that it makes good economic and
environmental sense to use the waste to
generate energy.
However, with todays natural gas prices
so low, biomass development has slowed.
This is expected to change when, and if,
gas prices rise again.
CHP IN GREEN BUILDINGS
Green building is expected to represent
44% of all commercial and institutional
construction in 2012, growing to 55%
by 2016, according to McGraw-Hills
Construction Green Outlook 2013. The
market stood at $85 billion in 2012, rising
by 2013 to an estimated $98$106 billion.
By 2016, this number is expected to be
between $204 billion and $248 billion.
The green building movement is
important to society because buildings
consume 17% of US energy. Green
development offers sustainable design,
water and energy effciency, conservation
of materials and an emphasis on indoor

air quality. Industries expected to pursue
green building also happen to be prime
candidates for CHP, such as hospitals,
schools and offce buildings. Bigger
projects are the most likely to go green,
according to McGraw-Hill.
Many green buildings try to meet LEED
(Leadership in Energy and Environmental
Design) standards, set by the US Green
Building Council. CHP, solar, wind and
other forms of on-site energy can help
these buildings meet the standard.
The council developed a calculation
methodology to gauge the benefts of
using combined heat and power in LEED
buildings: http://www.usgbc.org/ShowFile.
aspx?DocumentID=1354.
IMPROVED INDOOR AIR QUALITY
In addition to helping clean the air on a
global level, combined heat and power
systems can improve air quality within
a building, thus reducing maintenance
costs and improving working conditions.
Heating, ventilation and air conditioning
systems often provide insuffcient humidity
control or fail to meet a buildings need
for outside air. Combined heat and power

REAL WORLD EXAMPLE

Reliable power, smaller carbon footprint
at Princeton University
Princeton University has a district energy facility which is comprised of a
15 MW gas turbine CHP system that produces electricity, steam and chilled water
for the campus. The Princeton turbine was the frst of its kind in the world to earn
certifcation to operate on biodiesel fuel, and has the ability to switch between
natural gas and biodiesel as price or supply dictates. The CHP system was installed
in 19951996 and began operation in late 1996. The system boasts a 60%80% total
effciency depending on the time of year.
Princetons district energy system has four main components: steam boilers, water
chillers, an electric generator and a large thermal energy storage system. The system
supports a total of 150 buildings on campus, including residential and academic
buildings, athletic facilities and dining halls.
The universitys peak load is about 27 MW and the average load is 20 MW to power
all facilities, so the university supplements power produced from the CHP system
with purchased power from the grid. On a normal day the CHP system provides all
of the steam and about half of the electricity for the campus. The university typically
produces power during the day from the CHP system, when electricity prices are
higher, and buys electricity from the local utility, PSE&G, during the evening when
prices drop. The campus also has 6 MW of emergency generators, which are used
to support critical assets such as keeping exit lights running in buildings. The entire
system serves about 12,000 people each day with power and heat.

OPERATION
SANDY
DURING
SUPERSTORM
During Superstorm Sandy, Princeton

University was able to continue running
normally thanks to its CHP plant - see boxed
text. Princeton disconnected from the grid
and used its district energy CHP system
to power the campus. Non-critical loads
around campus, such as administration
buildings and some classrooms, were shut
off so that the CHP plant could stay well
within its generating capability.
The plant produced 100% of campus
energy needs from Monday evening to
Wednesday evening when the university
was able to receive power from the grid
again. The CHP system was also able to
provide uninterrupted steam and chilled
water service. By Thursday morning, power
was restored to all buildings on campus.
The university declared a campus-wide
state of emergency, requiring only critical
staff to be at work. Many staff members
stayed overnight at the university because
of the storm. The CHP plant was vital to
maintaining important facilities such as
research labs, experiments and data that
could have been compromised by a loss
of power.
SITE CHP PERSPECTIVES
The CHP system at Princeton has garnered
a lot of recognition and praise from a
number of organisations including the New
Jersey Clean Energy Program, the EPA, and
the International District Energy Association
(IDEA). Most recently the university received
a Governors Environmental Excellence
Award in Clean Air from the State of New
Jersey.
Cost benefts were an important reason
for the installation of the system, but it has
also helped to greatly reduce Princetons
carbon footprint, supporting the universitys
overall sustainability goals. Edward T Borer
Jr, manager of the energy plant at Princeton,
wrote the following to the IDEA: What even
fewer people considered was that there was
no interruption to steam or chilled water
service since all distribution is underground.
Yet another reason for district energy!

CHP
ombined heat and power offers

benefts to a wide range of
businesses and institutions. It is
especially important for critical
infrastructure operations that we rely
on for security, public health and safety.
We want to know the power is always on
at hospitals, water treatment facilities,
police stations and shelters when ferce
storms strike, especially as severe weather
now seems to occur more frequently.
SuperStorm Sandy offered an excellent
case study on the advantages of CHP.
When the 2012 storm knocked out power
to large swathes of the East Coast in
some cases for weeks hospitals, schools
and other CHP-enabled buildings served
as community lifelines. In a sea of darkness,
their lights were on.
Here is a look at some key facilities
and industries that beneft greatly from
combined heat and power.
MICROGRIDS
Microgrids are a new and growing market
for CHP in the US. Several states are
encouraging the development of these
self-contained, mini versions of the central
grid. Interest in microgrids stems from
a push by states to create more resilient,
storm-hardy electric systems. Microgrids
typically employ energy storage along with
CHP or solar. They can be integrated with
the central grid, offering grid services or
acting as stand-alone energy islands. More
than 4000 MW of microgrid capacity exists
worldwide with 65% about 3000 MW
in North America, according to Navigant
Research.
UTILITIES
Utilities are uniquely positioned to become
investors in CHP and help the nation
reach the Obama administrations goal of
40 GW of new CHP by 2020, according to
the white paper How Electric Utilities Can
Find Value in CHP, by Anna Chittum of the
American Council for an Energy-Effcient
Economy (ACEEE). Electric utilities would
gain energy effciency benefts and greater
grid resiliency by developing more CHP.
The paper describes several benefts
that increased utility participation would
bring to both the utility and CHP industries.
As partners with CHP developers, utilities
18
could help projects achieve favourable

borrowing terms because of their strong
balance sheets. In turn, utilities that offer
CHP might stand a better chance of
keeping large commercial and industrial
operations as customers a signifcant
beneft in deregulated states where utilities
face competition from retail suppliers.
CHP also can help utilities in grid
planning. Built in pinpointed areas, CHP
can reduce costly grid congestion and
mitigate peak period strain. By adding CHP
to their systems, utilities can sometimes
avoid upgrades to aging infrastructure.
About 70% of US transmission lines and
transformers are at least 29 years old,
according to the ACEEE.
Adding CHP also helps utilities reduce
line loss, since the plants are usually located
at or near the point of consumption. About
7% of the electrons dispatched across
utility lines are lost in transit.
And fnally, CHP helps utilities bolster
their green profle. It frees up utility
transmission lines for use by wind and
large solar facilities. And it offers a way for
utilities to reduce emissions as regulators
impose increasingly strict rules on the
power sector.
Utility/CHP partnerships offer a great
deal of promise. But they remain untapped
because of the high capital investments
required for new CHP systems and the lack
of market incentives for utilities.
HOSPITALS
Because of their life-and-death mission,
95% of hospitals have some form of
backup generation. They are particularly
well-suited to CHP because they have a

high demand for both power and hot water.
While hospitals account for less than 1%
of commercial buildings, they use 4.3% of
total energy for that sector, according to the
US Energy Information Administration. Of
all the commercial CHP installations across
the US, 9.2% are hospitals, according to
the ICF CHP Installation Database 2013.
More than 200 hospitals nationwide now
use CHP, according to the US Department
of Energy. Still, this is only a fraction of the
more than 3000 hospitals in the US.
A 2 MW ON-SITE CHP
INSTALLATION CAN
SAVE A HOSPITAL
$400,000 PER YEAR
A 2 MW on-site CHP installation can save
a hospital $400,000 per year in operations
and maintenance costs, and can cut energy
bills by acting as a hedge against the rising
cost of electricity, the DOE says. A study in
Massachusetts concluded that because of
high electricity prices in the state, a 1 MW
microturbine CHP system at a non-proft
hospital produced at least $700,000 in
cash fow annually. CHP systems would
also pay for themselves in as little as four
years, according to a Massachusetts report,
Powering the Future of Healthcare, by a
Boston Green Ribbon Commission.
Hospitals also beneft from CHP because
they are heavy users of hot water. Large
US hospitals consume about 133 billion
gallons (605 billion litres) of water per year.
More than 99% need hot water to sterilise

CHP
Oil shale and gas recovery operations represent the fastest-growing market for CHP worldwide
containers, medical instruments, surgical

tools and trays. They also need hot water
to wash dishes and laundry, and heat pools,
steam rooms, whirlpools and showers.
The Massachusetts report found that
23% of a hospitals water use goes to
heating, ventilation and cooling; 42% to
sanitation; 14% to medical processes; 9%
to cooking; 5% to laundry, and 9% was
unaccounted for, according to the DOE.
Food safety has become a signifcant

concern, so facilities tend to use a large
amount of hot water and steam to prevent
bacteria growth.
The industry also depends heavily
on electric reliability. For example, in
the chocolate processing industry, hot
chocolate is piped over long distances. If
the power is lost, the chocolate begins to
solidify in less than fve minutes.
FOOD INDUSTRY
Food processing technologies have grown
increasingly energy intensive in recent
years. Now the food industry consumes
about 15.7% of US energy to grow,
process, transport, store and prepare our
meals, according to a US Department of
Agriculture report, Energy Use in the US
Food System.
FOOD STORES
Supermarkets also rely heavily on energy
reliability to maintain the quality of the vast
amount of food now kept in store freezers
and refrigerators. The EPA estimates that
refrigeration accounts for 40% of the energy
used by grocery stores. This makes them
prime candidates for CHP. Whole Foods,
Albertsons and Price Chopper are among
Credit: E-Finity
the stores nationwide using combined heat

and power fuel cell systems.
COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES
Schools have become chief champions
of on-site power, particularly as their
energy needs grow with greater use of
air conditioning. Colleges and universities
focus increasingly on green and effcient
forms of energy in an attempt to lower
costs and improve their environmental
footprint. A $455 billion industry, higher
education spends heavily on fuel, energy
and infrastructure, and is set to spend more
as growing numbers of students enroll.
DATA CENTRES
Data centres need large amounts of
reliable energy to operate and cool
equipment, making them well-suited for
19
CHP
CHP. Data centres account for 1.5% of
total US electricity use and have an annual
greenhouse gas impact of 76 million metric
tonnes, according to the January 2012
report, Data Centre Energy Effciency,
Renewable Energy and Carbon Offset
Best Practices, by energy analysts Patrick
Costello and Roshni Rathi. Data centres
are likely to double their energy use and
greenhouse gas emissions by 2020, the
report says.

uses 1500 TWh of power per year, which
accounts for about 10% of the worlds
total electricity generation. This is the
same amount of electricity that was used
to light the entire planet in 1985. CHP has
the potential to dramatically curb energy
use and emissions within the ICT network,

HOSPITALITY
Hotels are seeing their energy consumption
rise as they add more amenities, such as
restaurants, exercise facilities and gift
shops.
The EPA has identifed about 10,000
US hotels with characteristics suitable for
combined heat and power. More than
1000 of these sites are likely to meet
a simple payback on their investment
within fve years or less, according to the
federal agency.
Hotels in the 100-room to 300-room
size range can use small 60 kW-250 kW
systems with reciprocating engines, fuel
cells, or microturbines that supply hot
water for domestic, space heating and
laundry needs. Larger hotels with central
cooling systems can use bigger systems
by incorporating absorption chillers that
increase thermal energy recovery and
provide both air conditioning and heating,
says the EPA.
ETHANOL FACILITIES
The EPA sees a strong technical ft for CHP
in ethanol facilities. Potential exists to cut
the energy intensity of dry mill ethanol
production by 15%. CHP is attractive for
these facilities because energy represents
their second highest production cost.
CHP
Electric and steam demands are large
and coincident. For a 1550 million gallon
(56189 million litre) per year facility,
typical power demand is 2 MW6 MW and
typical steam use is 18,00070,000 kg/h,
says the EPA. Electric and steam profles
are relatively fat, and facilities run 24/7.
MANUFACTURING INDUSTRY
Industry consumes more than 30% of
US energy so its not surprising that
manufacturers are the largest users of
CHP in the US. Chemical, steel and
petroleum refning, pulp and paper,
glass manufacturing and other industries
use CHP, in some cases using industrial
by-products for fuel. Industry uses more
energy than any other single sector in
the US, which makes it an important
focus of energy effciency efforts. But US
manufacturing was hit hard by the recent
economic downturn and some facilities
were shut down, along with their combined
heat and power plants.
WASTEWATER TREATMENT
Water and wastewater treatment and
conveyance account for up to 4% of the
energy used in the US, according to the
EPA, which fnds that CHP is particularly
effective for wastewater treatment facilities
with anaerobic digesters. CHP systems
can use biogas from the digesters as fuel.
Reliability is important to these facilities
because they must be able to run in the
event of a natural or man-made disaster;
CHP can provide this reliability when
grid power is down. Each million gallons
per day of wastewater fow can generate
enough biogas in an anaerobic digester to
produce 26 kW and 2.4 million Btu per day
in a CHP system.
RESIDENTIAL
Businesses have historically used CHP more
than apartment buildings or homeowners.
But recent storms, new technologies and
consistently high electricity prices in some
parts of the country have increased interest
in residential microturbines. The units are
about the size of a refrigerator. Sometimes
they are installed on roofs, where they may
require a permit from a municipal building
department or fre department, as well as
utility notifcation.
REAL WORLD EXAMPLE

Oil shale recovery
Distributed generation and CHP are helping to power the US boom in oil and gas
recovery. In fact, turbine manufacturer Capstone says that oil and gas represents its
fastest growing market worldwide.
CHP systems are especially important to oil and gas operations located in remote
locations away from the electric utility grid.
In early 2014, Capstone received microturbine orders totaling 6.4 MW from E-Finity
for oil and gas operations projects in the Marcellus and Utica Shale regions.
The orders came from two of their current customers and two new customers.
One of E-Finitys customers is expanding an existing gas transmission station in
Pennsylvania, a 2011 EPA Energy Star Award site. The CHP system consists of three
C65 ICHP units that will be replaced with a Capstone C800 Power Package and a heat
recovery system producing 4 million Btu of hot water. The hot water will be used for
heating fuel gas for the compressors and building heat, alleviating the need for the
ancillary equipment usually used for this process.
Another of E-Finitys repeat customers, an exploration, production and transmission
company operating in West Virginia and Pennsylvania, purchased multiple C1000
Power Packages to replace aging reciprocating engine-driven generators. The new
equipment reduces the overall footprint of the power generation equipment.
A third order came from a major midstream company and new customer to
Capstone and E-Finity. That company selected a C800 low emission power package
as the three-phase power source for a new compression facility. The microturbines
produce fewer emissions than conventional generators and allow the customer
to increase continuous on-site power production without obtaining additional air
permits.
The oil and gas market continues to be our fastest growing market worldwide,
said Jim Crouse, Capstones executive vice president of sales and marketing. From
the Eagle Ford, Marcellus and Utica shale plays in the United States to the oil felds of
Russia, Capstone microturbines are becoming the go-to power source for producers
that want extremely reliable and low emission on-site power solutions.
DISTRICT HEATING AND COOLING

These systems distribute steam or hot
or cold water from a central location via
piping into multiple buildings. They are
especially effcient for college campuses,
urban facilities, military bases, airports,
research centres and hospitals with multiple
buildings. Buildings are spared the capital
expense of owning their own boilers,
furnaces, chillers or air conditioning.
Many of these systems use CHP. Some
district energy systems serve just a few
buildings, others far more. Consolidated
Edison operates a district energy system
in New York City which covers more than
1800 buildings.
The International District Energy
Association (IDEA) serves as a worldwide
resource for district heating and cooling.
The
Massachusetts-based
non-proft
association has 1700 members in 25
countries who own, operate or provide
technology and services to district energy
systems that supply steam, hot water,
chilled water and energy services to

multiple buildings. The Canadian District
Energy Association became part of IDEA
in 2012.
INDUSTRIAL WASTE HEAT
One increasingly discussed but largely
untapped subset of CHP is the recycling
of industrial waste energy. Industry uses
the largest share of energy in the US,
accounting for more than 28 quads, or 30%
of all energy consumed. Roughly one-third
of the energy consumed by industry is
discarded as thermal losses directly to
the atmosphere, according to the EPA,
which estimates that as much as 65 GW
could come from waste energy in the US.
Waste heat is often recycled at refneries
or plants that manufacture paper, steel,
glass, cement, fberglass or chemicals,
or undertake other energy-intensive
processes. Most of the nations waste heat
opportunity can be found in the Gulf States
and the Midwest.

Part 4
IS CHP RIGHT FOR YOU?
Costs, energy usage, state regulations and other factors will decide whether CHP will work for you
22
Credit: TexStar
CHP
o far, weve discussed the benefts

of CHP and why it is being installed
by more and more companies,
institutions and federal facilities.
And weve emphasised the large growth
potential for this type of energy the
American Gas Association estimates that
there is potential to develop 40 GW of
CHP in the US that could achieve a 10-year
payback or less.
But CHP is not right for everyone. For
one, its cost-effectiveness often depends
on your operations thermal requirements
not just its power needs. So how do you
know if CHP will work for you and save you
money? Here we explain what you need to
consider: your costs, energy usage, state
regulations and other factors.
The EPA has detailed online guidance
at
http://www.epa.gov/chp/projectdevelopment/qualifer_form.html. Below
are some of the key considerations. The
more that apply, the more cost-effective
combined heat and power is likely to be.
Your current and future energy costs;
The impact of power outages on your
bottom line;
The amount of electricity and thermal
energy you use;
Transmission congestion in your region;
Plans to expand your facility;
Fuel availability;
The status of deregulation in your state;
Energy quality the sensitivity of your
operation to power fuctuations;
Desire to reduce emissions levels;
Desire to decentralise supply from the
national grid;
Desire to both receive electricity from

and supply electricity to the grid.
LOCATION-SPECIFIC CONSIDERATIONS
Developing a CHP projects is easier, too,
if your state is hospitable to CHP. This will
be refected in interconnection standards,
output-based
emissions
regulations,
state energy policy and incentives, utility
acceptance, rates for standby power and
permitting requirements.
COST OF ENERGY
Not surprisingly, states with high electricity
rates tend have favourable policies for
combined heat and power. Policymakers
in these states see CHPs value in easing
energy costs. The US saw peak wholesale
electricity prices rise in 2013 especially in
New England and the Pacifc Northwest.
US ELECTRIC RETAIL RATES BY STATE
Whats the cost of electricity in your area?
The table on page 24 from the US Energy
Information Administration shows the
average cost of retail electricity in each of
the 50 states, from the high of more than
37 cents/kWh in Hawaii to the 4 cents/kWh
range in Washington state. The EPA says
that your facility may be a good candidate
for CHP if you pay more than 7 cents/kWh,
including generation, transmission and
distribution. Therefore, a sound fnancial
argument can be made for CHP in large
swathes of the US.
SPARK SPREAD
Another key factor is spark spread the
difference between the expected price of
the fuel (usually natural gas) and the price of

power and heat provided by utilities. A poor
spark spread often occurs in states with
low electric rates. The EPA offers a spark
spread calculator on its site to help you
make a preliminary determination about
the economics of CHP in your location,
available
at
http://www.epa.gov/chp/
project-development/index.html. To use
the calculator, you must input several factors
that affect spark spread, such as typical
monthly electricity use in kWh, monthly
fuel use in MMBtu, hours per year that a
facility operates, CHP fuel price and other
factors. If the result is a positive number, the
CHP project offers returns above its cost of
capital. The higher the spark spread, the
better the return on investment.
The chart on page 25, from the American
Gas Association, can also help gauge, in a
general way, the spark spread in your state.
States with high electricity rates and low
natural gas prices offer more favourable
conditions for CHP. Note, though, that
the chart offers only average prices; they
may vary by utility and are likely to change
over time.
US SPARK SPREAD BY STATE
Grid constraints
A business may be a good candidate for
combined heat and power if it is in an area
of transmission congestion, i.e., where the
fow of electricity is constricted. Congestion
raises electricity costs and the risk of power
interruptions.
Congestion has become a major
problem in the US as construction of
transmission infrastructure has lagged

behind growth in demand for electricity.

As a result, when demand peaks, grid
operators fnd themselves scrambling for
enough resources to maintain reserve
margins. US grids tend to peak in the
summer when air conditioning is running.
However, over the winter of 20132014,
several states experienced high winter
demand because of record cold.
At the same time, the power grid has
aged, and many areas of the nation have
failed to upgrade and expand the system.
A lack of transmission capacity can lead to
power shortages, which also drives up the
price of electricity. The power shortages
occur because new plants cannot be built
in the area as the grid lacks the capacity
to connect them. It also can be diffcult
to import power from neighbouring
regions into congested areas. Businesses
in congested areas should investigate
CHP as a way to cut costs and ensure
power supply.
FACILITY-SPECIFIC CONSIDERATIONS
Your location on the electric grid may well
play a part in your decision to install CHP.
But it is also important to evaluate your
facilitys characteristics and energy use. The
frst consideration should be: Do we need
electricity and heat simultaneously over
a long operating period? The longer the
period, the greater CHPs economic and
environmental benefts.
Before installing your system, it is
necessary to evaluate the economic and
operating characteristics of your energy
use. You will need to know: either the actual
or projected electricity and fuel costs of
the building over 12 months; the facilitys
operating hours; its heating and cooling
capacity; and the number of electric
feeders and meters on-site. The economics
of combined heat and power will depend
on the cost of installed equipment, its
annual operations, and fnancing charges.
Several software tools can assist in
your analysis.
Sizing your project
The New York State Energy and Research
Department points out that a wide range
of system sizes now exist. Colleges and
hospitals may typically accommodate CHP
systems from 5 MW to 50 MW. High-rise

commercial offce buildings tend towards

systems from 1 MW to 10 MW. Multifamily
residential buildings, supermarkets and
hotels may accommodate systems from
50 kW to 300 kW. Home micro-CHP systems
range from 1 kW to 5 kW. It is crucial that
your combined heat and power system is
sized correctly, which is why it is important
to employ a knowledgeable installation
company. If your combined heat and power
system is not the right size, you may not
achieve maximum effciency.
KEY FACTORS TO CONSIDER
Below is a list of important questions to
consider when exploring CHP.
Fuel supply
Does the site have easy access to cheap
or free energy, such as waste from an
industrial process carried out at thesite?
Does the site need to dispose of waste
that can safely be burnt to reducevolume?
Is the price of fuel likely to rise sharply or
is it already high?
Are there concerns about the security of
fuel supply?
Demand
Does the site have to generate heat,
steam or electricity as part of its normal
operations?
Does the site have a demand for electricity,
heat, process steam or cooling?
Is the cost of buying electricity from the
grid excessive, justifying the generation
of combined heat and power?
Does your facility operate for more than
5000 hours per year?
Is there a need for secure and continuous
supply, justifying the provision of on-site
backup power and heat? Would an
electrical outage fnancially harm your
operation?
Is there an asynchronicity in demand at
the site and from the grid, leading to the
situation where it could be cost-effective
to buy electricity from the grid during
peak operation and sell to the grid
during low demand?
Would a CHP system capable of meeting
some, but not all, of the peak demand
be the most effective solution?
Is there a local electricity demand that an
on-site generation system could meet?
Is there a local demand for high-purity

steam or water?
Is there a desire to secure self-suffciency
in energy supplies?
Do you plan to expand, retroft or
upgrade your facility in the next three to
fve years?
Regulatory
Is it likely that the site will be required to
reduce emissions signifcantly?
Are there any organisations or groups
located close to the site that might
be interested in purchasing excess
electricity or heat?
Is the state deregulated, and does it have
rules that support on-site generation?
Unsupportive states may allow utilities
to charge high standby or exit fees
when customers leave the system to
cogenerate.
Subsidies and fnance
Are government subsidies available to
encourage conversion to high-effciency
energy production?
Can a co-operative be formed to help
25
CHP
spread the cost of installation and
operation?
Environmental
Is your state government likely to
impose environmental regulations that
encourage combined heat and power,
energy effciency or renewable energy
supply, such as portfolio standards or
subsidies?
Is the organisation keen to take sound
environmental steps?
Might local environmental concerns
have an impact?
Does diffcult access make transport of
fuel to the site a problem?
Is space an issue at the site?
Are you in a state with mandatory carbon
dioxide emissions reductions or a carbon
cap and trade programme (such as the
Northeast or California)?
FINANCING ON-SITE POWER
Financial assistance is often available for
combined heat and power projects through
developers, equipment vendors, public
sources and private investors. Lenders will
consider your credit-worthiness and project
goals, and in some cases the technical and
economic merit of the project.
In addition, some developers now offer
long-term power purchase agreements
to hosts of CHP installations. Under these
contracts, the installer continues to own
and operate the CHP unit and the customer
pays only for energy. American DG offers
this type of product and calls it On-Site
Utility.
The DOE and EPA make note of the
following sources of fnancing, some in
particular states, in their Guide to Using
Combined Heat and Power for Enhancing
Reliability and Resiliency in Buildings,
September 2013.
P
rivate fnancing options for CHP systems
range from power purchase agreements
and other third-party fnancing options
to lease and debt fnancing.
Public fnancing options include revolving
loan funds, grant or rebate programmes,
state tax incentives, loan guarantees,
state bonds, renewable/thermal energy
credit (REC) markets, and property
assessed clean energy(PACEfnancing.
26
Sometimes special fnancing becomes

available because of certain events or
policies. Following Superstorm Sandy
several sources of funding opened up to
create a more resilient, storm-ready grid.
The new drive for energy effciency has also
resulted in more favourable CHP fnancing
in certain states.
According to the DOE/EPA report:
The Federal Emergency Management
Agency has two programmes available
under which CHP systems could
potentially qualify the FEMA Public
Assistance Program and the FEMA
Hazard Mitigation Program.
In New York State, the Community
Reconstruction Zone (CRZ) Program helps
communities develop comprehensive
local rebuilding plans funded by
the state and federal governments.
Combined heat and power could be
part of the strategy for this CRZ effort.
New York also offers a CHP Acceleration
Program administered by the New York
State Energy & Research Development
Authority.
In New Jersey, the Economic
Development Authority provides grants
for the installation of combined heat and
power or fuel cells.
In Connecticut, the Clean Energy Finance
and Investment Authority currently has
$5 million in fnancing available for

grants, loans, loan enhancements and
power purchase incentives for CHP
projects.
WHATS THE STATE OF CHP POLICY?
In recent years, many states have
strengthened polices that encourage
CHP and diluted rules that obstruct it.
States with utility rate decoupling have
removed a signifcant barrier to energy
effciency measures like combined heat
and power. Decoupling tries to correct
an economic disincentive to CHP that is
embedded in utility ratemaking. Typically,
utilities recover fxed costs through
usage charges. So, the more energy that
consumers buy, the more money utilities
recover or, conversely, the less they
buy, the less the utility recovers. Utilities
fear that as more and more customers
adopt energy effciency measures, it will
become increasingly diffcult for them to
recover their infrastructure costs, and in a
worst-case scenario this could jeopardise
their business. Some call this the utility
death spiral. States can overcome this by
decoupling a utilitys recovery of fxed costs
from its sales. If the utility system becomes
more energy effcient and energy sales
drop the utility does not lose money.
About half of the states offer some form
of decoupling, as illustrated below in this
Gas and Electric Decoupling in the US

CHP
CHPs cost-effectiveness often depends on your operations thermal requirements,

not just its power needs
map by the Natural Resources Defense

Council.
Below are several policies that the EPA
CHP Partnership and other distributed
generation advocates recommend you
investigate before installing CHP.
Exit fees. These tend to apply in states
that have restructured or deregulated
their electric industry. If customers
change their source of supply, utilities
may charge an exit fee to recover the
fxed costs of their capital assets without
shifting these costs onto remaining
customers. But many factors affect
utility rates and revenues (e.g., customer
growth, climate, fuel prices, overall
economic conditions). Any reduction
in load will not necessarily increase
cost an issue states are beginning to
examine.
Standby and related rates. Facilities
that use combined heat and power
usually need standby power when
the system is unavailable. For these
facilities, electric utilities often assess
standby charges to cover the additional
costs of the generating, transmission
or distribution capacity for intermittent
service. The utilitys concern is that the
combined heat and power facility will
require power when electricity is scarce
or at a premium cost, and that it must be
prepared to serve energy loads during
such extreme conditions. Nevertheless,
the probability that all interconnected
small-scale distributed generators will
Credit: Caterpillar
need power at the same time is relatively

low. Consequently, states are exploring
alternatives to standby rates that may
more accurately refect realistic system
operating conditions.
Buyback rates. CHP projects may have
electricity to sell back to the grid,
either intermittently or continuously.
The payment received for this power
can be a critical component of project
economics. The price the utility is willing
to pay can vary widely and is affected
by federal requirements (e.g., Public
Utilities Regulatory Policy Act standards)
and other state policies.
Gas rates for CHP facilities. Some states
have special favourable natural gas rates
for CHP facilities.
Public beneft funds. Several states
collect money for clean energy projects
through a small surcharge on utility bills.
Renewable Portfolio Standards (RPS)
require that electric utilities and other
retail electric providers provide a certain
amount of renewable energy. More than
half of the states have adopted RPS.
These standards can be important to
CHP facilities that use biomass or other
forms of renewable energy. In addition,
states are increasingly including energy
effciency requirements in portfolio
standards; in some cases CHP is
specifcally named as a resource to be
used to meet standards.
Output-Based Standards. Increasingly
adopted by states, these standards
take into account the effciency of a
generation source when they measure

emissions. In contrast, input-based
limits do not acknowledge the higher
fuel effciency offered by CHP. Outputbased standards recognise the higher
effciency and environmental benefts of
combined heat and power by measuring
emissions per unit of useful energy
output (electricity or thermal energy).
Interconnection
Standards.
These
are technical rules and procedures
distributed generators must follow to
connect to the grid. They vary between
states and are meant to ensure the
grids safety and reliability. Some
states rules are considered friendly
for CHP; others make it diffcult to
interconnect. The US EPA partnership
assesses the friendliness of each state
at http://www.epa.gov/chp/state-policy/
interconnection.html. The EPA weighs
how easy the rules are for small systems
(under 10 kW), how quickly applications
are processed, system size limits,
insurance and technical requirements.
The Energy Policy Act of 2005 calls for
state commissions to consider certain
adopting standards from the Institute
of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
(IEEE).
Investment & Production Tax Credits.
Investment tax credits lower the fnancial
risk of a capital-intensive project during
development. Production tax credits kick
in after the project is producing power.
Several states offer tax credits for CHP,
as does the federal government.
SUBSIDIES AND REVENUE STREAMS
A wide range of state and federal
incentives are available for CHP, including
grants, rebates and tax breaks. Some
states, such as California, Massachusetts
and New York, have public beneft funds
specifcally to offer fnancial assistance for
clean energy projects. The states typically
raise the money through a small surcharge
on customers utility bills. For a detailed
description, view the funding database
produced by the EPA CHP Partnership
at the end of this guide. State-by-state
incentives for several kinds of distributed
generation are in the Database of State
Incentives for Renewable Energy (DSIRE)

hen it came time to build

Michigans frst new utility
power plant in 25 years, the
Lansing Board of Water and
Light (BWL) chose CHP to replace its aging
coal-fred generating plant and coal boiler.
Called the REO Town Headquarters
and Cogeneration Plant, the 100 MW
combined-cycle project began operating in
July 2013. But the projects beginnings go
back more than half a dozen years, when
BWL realised it would need to replace the
coal-fred power plant known as the Eckert
generating station.
At frst, BWL planned to meet the need
with a hybrid biomass/coal baseload
plant, plus renewable energy and energy
effciency. The utility reasoned that the
hybrid would protect customers from fossil
fuel price spikes and the overall strategy
would lower the utilitys emissions profle.
But BWL soon began to reconsider
because of expected new rules from the
US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
for coal-fred boilers. Of particular concern
was the maximum achievable control
technology rule for industrial, commercial
and institutional boilers and process
heaters, known as Boiler MACT. The rule
limits mercury, carbon monoxide, fne
particulates and other forms of air pollution
from new and existing boilers of a specifed
size. Complying with the rule carries a
hefty price tag for the 14,000 industrial
boilers affected: an average $4.4 million
per coal boiler and $1.9 million per oil
boiler for necessary capital improvement
and compliance measures, according to
the EPA.
Boiler MACT does not apply to power

generation facilities, so Lansing wasnt
concerned about its new power plant. But it
was worried about its neighbouring Moores
Park steam plant. The coal boiler supplied
steam to heat buildings in downtown
Lansing, including the state capitol building,
as well as the nearby General Motors Grand
River assembly plant. But like the Eckert
generating station, the steam plant was
showing its age and not measuring up in a
world that demanded cleaner power. Three
of the Moores Park units were more than
55 years old, and the fourth was more than
40 years old.
BWL could undertake an expensive
retroft or pursue other options, such as
replacing Moores Park with new natural
gas boilers or combined heat and power.

The utility announced its decision in July
2010: it would move forward with CHP
because of its effciency, low lifecycle costs
and environmental benefts. This would
allow Lansing to replace its generation and
steam facilities with one new plant that
could provide both resources.
Today, the $182 million plant provides
20% of BWLs power and 300,000 pounds
of steam for BWLs 225 steam customers in
downtown Lansing.
BWL sees the plant as a step toward
achieving its goal of a 20% reduction
in greenhouse gas emissions by 2020.
Compared to the coal-fred units it replaces,
the new plant offers several environmental
advantages. It resulted in a 50% reduction

CHP
create a combined heat and power plant
that would be ideal for manufacturing and
commercial facilities, including hotels,
hospitals, data centres and other facilities
with large heat loads.
To help demonstrate the feasibility of
the newly-designed control system to
potential customers, the team wanted to
install a functioning example at their offce
and manufacturing facility in Connecticut.
With the help of a grant from the states
Department of Energy and Environmental
Protection (DEEP) to help offset the cost,
the project moved full steam ahead.
A natural gas-powered generator was chosen because it met emissions requirements
in greenhouse gases, the elimination of

351,000 tonnes of coal use, a 99% drop in
mercury and sulphur dioxide emissions and
an 85% drop in nitrogen oxides.
BIOGAS CHP FOR PHILLY GREENWORKS
A 5.6 MW biogas cogeneration facility
became the latest addition to Philadelphias
Greenworks project when it began
operating in November 2013.
Greenworks is a programme, launched
by the citys mayor Michael Nutter, which
aims to make Philadelphia the greenest
city in America by 2015. The city is trying
to reach its goal through 15 sustainability
targets for energy, environment, equity,
economy and engagement.
This new facility is another step in
furthering the citys sustainability goals
in our Greenworks plan, Nutter said.
We are becoming more energy effcient
and reducing our use of non-renewable
energy sources. We will continue to fnd
innovative ways to use green power
because its benefcial for the environment
and our budget.
The project was engineered and built
by Ameresco, which also oversees its
operations. The facility produces about
85% of the power used annually by the citys
Northeast water pollution control plant. It
runs on biogas created as a by-product of
sewage treatment.

The city expects the plant to result

in carbon dioxide reductions of about
22,000 tonnes per year. This equates
to taking 4833 cars off the road, or the
planting of 5390 acres of pine forest.
Recovering the hidden fuel in our
wastewater treatment processes helps
to diversify our energy portfolio, while
improving the environment through
innovative, green technology, said Howard
Neukrug, Commissioner of the Philadelphia
Water Department.
The project was funded partly through a
grant from the federal American Recovery
and Reinvestment Act. The Energy Services
business unit of Bank of America Merrill
Lynch provided private fnancing.
CONNECTICUT CHP IS A MODEL
Plainville Electrical Products Company
(PEPCO) has been designing and
manufacturing electrical control systems
and distribution panels for commercial
and shipboard use since 1922. Many of
these systems have been installed on
US Navy ships and large yachts. The
company has also designed a number of
power management and generator control
systems for utility applications.
With experience in the utility market and
extensive knowledge of control systems
design, the PEPCO engineering team
combined these areas of expertise to
Solution
Fred Anderson, PEPCO project manager,
knew he wanted to use a Cat generator to
build this combined heat and power plant.
I was very familiar with Cat generators
from previous marine generator and engine
applications, and I went straight to them,
said Anderson.
A natural gas-powered generator
was chosen because it would meet the
emissions requirements and is powered
by a local fuel source. After consulting
with local Cat dealer H O Penn, Anderson
selected a G3412C generator set, capable
of generating 375 kW during continuous
use. All design, engineering and control
work was done by the PEPCO design team.
Visual checks of the plants components
are performed daily by maintenance staff,
but the operation is fully controlled by
the PEPCO-designed automated control
system. The system starts and stops the
operation at predetermined times and
adjusts recovered heat based on thermal
demand to maximise effciency. The control
system essentially runs the whole building,
including lighting, the heating and cooling
system, and the alarm.
The waste heat from the generator
powers two absorption chillers. These
combination chiller/heater units provide
95% of the facilitys heating and cooling
needs. By harnessing this waste heat, the
system effciency is increased from 35% to
about 70%.
The generator typically runs from
6:30 am to 5:00 pm, Monday through
Friday, at a baseload capacity of 200 kW.
PEPCOs average electrical load is 65 kW,
meaning 135 kW goes back to the grid.
CHP
The 5.7 MW CHP plant at Montclair State University provides power, steam and chilled water
The DEEP grant that PEPCO received

is designed to help increase local grid
capacity. To achieve this, the generator
runs longer hours and at a higher load
limit of 375 kW during designated peak
times, typically during the summer and
winter months.
Results
The plant went online in 2008 and has
exceeded expectations. It provides more
than 100% of PEPCOs electricity needs
and 95% of its heating and cooling needs.
When small problems do arise, H O Penn
immediately fxes them. The relationship
we have with H O Penn is one of the
best working relationships we have with
a vendor. Their sales and service teams
are always right there if we need them,
Anderson said.
The installation has also served its
purpose as a helpful sales tool. Anderson
said that after a customers frst visit to the
project demonstration, he decided to add
a similar combined heat and power plant
to his manufacturing facility.
CHP IN GAS PROCESSING
As its 2013 project of the year, The Texas
Combined Heat and Power Initiative
(TXCHPI) chose the TexStar Midstream T2

EF, a 15 MW facility that demonstrates the
value of CHP in upstream and midstream
gas processing. The project uses captured
heat from the turbine exhaust to process
the natural gas.
Most of the CHP capacity in Texas is
associated with downstream oil and gas
operations, but there is a vast potential for
upstream and midstream gas processing.
With the South Texas utilities struggling
to provide the increased electricity needs
of new commercial users in the Eagle Ford
shale area, this project exemplifes the
perfect application for a combined heat
and power system, said Dennis Barry,
senior mechanical engineer, formerly
with the project design frm Meers
Engineering, now with Multatech Architects
and Engineers.
TexStar takes clean pipeline-quality gas
from its midstream gas operations and
uses it to generate electricity with a Solar
Turbines Titan 130. The heat from the
turbine exhaust is captured and effciently
used in the gas processing operations,
Barry said.
Located near Pettus, Texas, the remote
TexStar Midstream Services LP provides a
full range of midstream services including
Credit: Energenic
the gathering, treating and processing of

natural gas and natural gas liquids. The
facility plans to expand its T2 EF operation
by an additional 45 MW to support its
growing processing operations as well as
to supply needed energy to the region.
The TexStar CHP system provides
effcient and reliable energy on-site where
it is needed, while contributing to the
economic development growth in the area.
It is our hope that many more projects like
this emerge at midstream gas processing
facilities across the state, said Paul
Cauduro, TXCHPI executive director.
The CHP project was the frst to be
permitted in Texas using a Permit by Rule
for CHP systems. This air permit process
was created to streamline regulations and
spur CHP projects.
A GREEN COLLEGE GETS GREENER
Energenic completed installation in
September 2013 of a $90 million combined
heating, cooling and power plant at
Montclair State Universitys 250-acre
(101-ha) campus in New Jersey.
The new 5.7 MW on-site facility
provides steam for heat, chilled water
for air conditioning and natural gas-fred
generation via a new underground energy
31
CHP
distribution system. The system provides
Montclair State with 100% of its steam and
about 75% of its electricity.
Electricity is being generated, and
steam and chilled water are being delivered
to all of the connected buildings, said
Gregory Bressler, Montclairs vice president
for university facilities.
Consistently named a green college
by The Princeton Reviews Guide to
Green Colleges since its frst release
in 2010, Montclair State is dedicated
to environmentally-responsible energy
services, which also include solar energy at
both its main campus and its New Jersey
School of Conservation campus in Forest.
The university serves 19,000 students.
Energenic is particularly proud that
the plant was built and completed in
15 months, which was three months ahead
of schedule, and within budget, said Frank
DiCola, Energenic president and CEO.
Energenic is a long-term partnership
between DCO Energy and Marina
Energy, which is a subsidiary of South
Jersey Industries. The frm specialises
in designing, developing and operating
custom, eco-friendly energy projects,
including thermal, combined heat and
power, district heating and cooling,
distributed generation and landfll gas-toelectric facilities.
CHP FUEL CELL AVOIDS NEW T&D
Southern California Edison Company
added clean power at its point of use a
way to avoid building new transmission
and distribution with a 1.4 MW fuel cell at
California State University, San Bernardino.
Installed by FuelCell Energy, the CHP
project uses natural gas as the fuel source
for its electrochemical reaction. Unlike a
traditional fossil fuel-driven power plant,
the process involves no combustion,
so admits no nitrogen oxides, sulphur
dioxides or particulate matter. The fuel cell
also generates more power per unit of fuel
than a conventional plant and therefore
results in less greenhouse gases. The fuel
cell makes use of power generation waste
heat for the campus hot water system, and
lessens the colleges dependence on a
combustion-based boiler system.
Electricity generated by the fuel cell is
going straight into the Edison grid, and the
32
CHP saves over $3000 per month for the Crayne compression
station in Waynesburg, Virginia
university will be able to utilise the waste

heat it produces to preheat the campus
heating system, resulting in an estimated
annual savings of $120,000 from avoided
natural gas costs, said Tony Simpson,
senior director of facilities services at Cal
State San Bernardino, which enrols more
than 17,000 students.
Californias Self-Generation Incentive
Program, a state tax incentive for
distributed generation, provided funding.
Southern California Edison owns and
maintains the fuel cell, which provides
electricity constantly to the grid.
EPAS CHP ENERGY STARS
The US Environmental Protection Agency
in late 2013 awarded its Energy Star CHP
award to two federal entities: the National
Archives and Records Administration
(NARA) and the Marine Corps Logistics
Base in Albany, Georgia.
NARA operates a 150 kW CHP system
at the National Archives Building, home of
the US Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the
Declaration of Independence and other
rare documents of historical signifcance.
The national archives system boasts an
operating effciency of 72% and the system
requires 24% less fuel than electricity from
the grid and hot water from an on-site
boiler, according to the EPA. The system
also avoids an estimated 470 tonnes of
carbon pollution annually.
Credit: Dominion Transmission
The archives system includes two

Aegis Energy Services natural gas-fuelled
internal combustion engines. They
produce electricity as well as all of the hot
water needed by the building. Hot water
not needed for conventional uses helps
supply the buildings dehumidifcation
system crucial to protect documents
from excessive moisture.
Ameresco installed the project under
an energy savings performance contract,
which allowed NARA to avoid up-front
capital costs. Under the deal, Ameresco
receives a portion of the $265,000 in
annual savings from the project. At the
end of the contracts seven-year term
the federal government owns all of
the equipment and receives all of the
continuing savings.
The Marine Corps Logistics Base in
Albany received the Energy Star award for
its 1.9 MW CHP system, a project fuelled
by landfll gas that provides 20% of the
bases electricity.
Installed in 2011, the CHP system has
brought savings of about $1.3 million per
year in energy costs. It is also helping the
base to meet federal standards to reduce
the energy intensity in buildings by 30%
by 2015, and a Department of Defence
goal to reduce its emissions by 34% by
fscal year 2020. The base is trying to
become the Department of the Navys frst
net-zero facility.
CHP
The CHP system produces steam for
a manufacturing plant that repairs and
rebuilds Marine Corps ground combat and
combat support equipment. The system
also enhances power reliability for the base
because it can operate independently of
the electric grid during an outage.
Landfll gas from the nearby Dougherty
County landfll fuels the plant. If the landfll
gas supply runs short, the CHP system can
quickly switch to natural gas. The facility
wastes less fuel because it avoids faring
the landfll gas. As a result the system
reduces carbon pollution by 10,300 tonnes
per year, according to the EPA.
The CHP system uses an internal
combustion engine manufactured by GEs
Jenbacher. MCLB Albany partnered with
Chevron Energy Solutions to develop the
CHP system.
The EPA estimates that of the 2430
currently open or recently closed landflls
in the US, about 450 are candidates for
energy production with a potential capacity
of 850 MW. Of those, more than 20 landflls
are promising candidates for supporting
CHP systems at federal facilities.
BACKUP POWER FOR NY HOSPITAL
Albany Medical Centre, New Yorks only
academic health sciences centre, installed
a 4.5 MW CHP system in 2013 to ensure
reliability at the 651-bed hospital.
The plant provides 80% of the medical
centres power in the winter and 50%
in the summer. It also serves as backup
power during outages, a front-and-centre
worry in the state since SuperStorm Sandy
caused massive outages in 2012. The
system uses recovered heat for hot water
and sterilisation.
The systems Solar Mercury 50-6000R
natural
gas-fred
turbine
produces
electricity to power all systems throughout
the medical centre. The installation also
includes a 60,000 lb/hr (27,000 kg/hr)
heat recovery steam generator and a gas
compressor. Cogen Power Technologies
developed a Load Management System
to control the supply of electricity during
overload intervals and reduce the loads
during power outages so that the system is
not overloaded.
One advantage of having an on-site
cogen plant is that less energy is lost

Three Capstone microturbines generate electricity and heat for the station,
acting as a zero-fuel, zero-emission, 1 million BTU boiler;
The system provides more than $3000 in energy savings per month;
The microturbines produce 130 kW of electricity using the natural gas that
fows through the station;
The CHP system operates at 85% effciency, compared with 30%40% for the
previous boiler system;
The Crayne compression station is 100% self-suffcient and can generate
electricity and heat during a power outage in the region.
This case study was reprinted with permission from the Pew Charitable Trusts
because it is distributed right here at the

Medical Centre. Its a win-win proposition
for both Albany Med and the environment,
said Emilio Genzano, the medical centres
assistant vice president of engineering
and construction.
The project displaces 4117 kW of peak
demand and provides 29,000,000 kWh per
year of electricity. The system is expected
to pay for itself within seven years and
save the hospital about $70 million over
20 years.
The New York State Energy Research and
Development Authority is collecting data
from the project and making it available in
an hourly format on its website.
SAVINGS FOR COMPRESSION STATION
Dominion Transmission, a natural gas
pipeline operator serving the eastern US,
illustrates the benefts of CHP. Seeking
to improve the effciency of its Crayne
compression station in Waynesburg,
Pennsylvania, Dominion Transmission
deployed a CHP system in 2004 using
three Capstone microturbines. The Crayne
station now operates at 85% effciency,
twice the previous level.
This summer, US Representative Tim
Murphy toured the plant, which is in
his district.
Combined heat and power systems are
another example of how our home-grown
natural resources are being utilised in
new and innovative ways, Murphy said.
Southwestern Pennsylvania consistently
demonstrates that its a national leader in
energy exploration but now can claim the
same title for energy effciency as well.

The microturbines provide electricity
and heat to two buildings and are powered
by the same natural gas already fowing
through the pipelines at the compression
station. Capturing the excess heat from
the microturbines eliminates the need for
a boiler. And producing its own electricity
allows the Crayne station to operate even
if there is a power outage in the area.
This CHP system uses less natural
gas and produces more energy than a
traditional boiler, said Dan Donovan, a
Dominion Transmission spokesman. The
station is generating its own electricity
there are no power lines to our facility
and heat. In essence, the hot water is free.
The return on the investment took about
fve years. Dominion Transmission saved
$1 million initially because it did not need
new power lines and grid connections.
Now the Crayne compression station saves
more than $3000 each month because
the CHP system is not dependent on an
external power supply. The facility also
reduced its greenhouse gas emissions,
a beneft equivalent to removing nearly
20,000 cars from the road annually. In
2011, the station received the EPAs Energy
Star Combined Heat and Poweraward.
The CHP system at Crayne is one of
149 such installations in Pennsylvania,
60 of which use natural gas, according
to the American Gas Association. CHP
provides 2 GW of power statewide,
and the association estimates that an
additional 2.9 GW could be added in the
industrial sector alone.

The Obama administration has set a
goal of making the US a leading exporter
of clean energy technologies. Launched
in 2010, the strategy marks the frst time
the nation has systematically worked on
exporting green energy.
To help reach the goal, the Renewable

initiative is working on overcoming barriers
to export. The group also is helping
to promote US products and services
internationally. Eight federal agencies
are working on the effort, including the
Department of Commerce, Department
of Energy, Trade Representative, State
Department, Trade and Development
Agency, Export-Import Bank, Overseas
Private Investment Corporation and
Department of Agriculture.
In early 2014, the US and several of its
major trade partners set a goal to eliminate

green technology. In addition to the US,
others backing the plan are Australia,
Canada, China, Costa Rica, the European
Union, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, New

CHP
REAL WORLD EXAMPLE
Australian CHP plant serves as a wastewater model
The wastewater treatment facility in the
shire of Melton in Melbourne is Australias
frst to install a microturbine with a CHP
system, which helps transform sewage
water into carbon-neutral recycled
water, electricity and heat. Electricity
generated by the on-site Capstone
CR200 microturbine, which is fueled by
sewage digester methane gas, provides
power for the recycled water facility. In
addition, thermal heat produced by the
microturbine is captured and used by the
digester to further improve its effciency.
Together, these two technologies
comprise the cogeneration system that
helps make the wastewater treatment
plant energyeffcient.
The township of Melton is one of
Australias fastest growing municipalities,
with a population expected to double in
the next 20 years as the boundaries of
Melbourne expand. With Melbournes
reservoirs dropping to their lowest water
levels in a decade, recycled water plays
a key role in the governments strategy
to reduce overall water consumption.
The regions water supply from lakes
and reservoirs is only at 30% of capacity,
meaning recycled water is vital to sustain
the local communitys needs.
The wastewater treatment facility,
operated by Western Water, provides
recycled water and sewage services to
145,000 people throughout Meltons
outer regions. With rapid regional
population growth expected, plant
executives knew they needed a strategy
to manage the future volume of waste in
an eco-friendly way.
The result was a greenhouse reduction
strategy to address how Western Water
will cope with accelerated population
growth and, at the same time, limit the
companys overall carbon footprint among
its several plants. Reducing greenhouse
gas emissions is a focal point for Western
Water as the company strives to achieve
carbon neutrality by 2017.
At the plant, offcials set high goals
to treat 100% of biosolids, use 100% of
resulting methane biogas as a clean-andgreen energy source, and produce 100%
recycled water. The Capstone CR200 CHP
system has helped meet thesetargets.
36
In July 2010, Capstone distributor

Aquatec
Maxcon
commissioned
the biogas-fueled Capstone CR200
microturbine at the wastewater treatment
facility to begin producing on-site
electricity. By November, the complete
CHP system was fully operational.
When we conducted a full lifecycle
analysis, we found that the high availability
and low projected maintenance costs of
the Capstone microturbine, together with
the reliable power produced, made it the
best option for us, said Rob Franklin,
Western Waters general manager for
sustainability. We took energy effciency
into account, along with the availability
of the equipment, which is well over 99%
when compared to other cogeneration
technologies in the marketplace.
During the projects planning phase,
engineers estimated a Capstone CR200
would reduce this one plants greenhouse
gas emissions by 1800 tonnes each year,
or about 7.5% of Western Waters total
emissions among all its treatment plants.
The plant is a 10 million litre/day
activated sludge treatment plant with
tertiary lagoon treatment. At the facility,
an anaerobic digester breaks down the
biosolid sludge, which creates biogas
with a methane content of about 70%.
Before the 200 kW microturbine was
installed, the plant used some of the
gas to heat a boiler for the digester, and
then fared any excess gas. Unfortunately,
fared methane gas has a greenhouse
gas impact on the atmosphere 21 times
greater than carbon dioxide.
The Capstone CR200 burns biogas
from the anaerobic digester to produce
1700 MWh of electricity each year. The
electricity offsets the plants overall power
consumption by an estimated 60%. The
Capstone microturbine is designed to
tolerate high levels of hydrogen sulfde
and siloxanes in the biogas when
compared to traditional reciprocating
engine technology. The biogas produced
at the wastewater facility has up to
3500 parts per million (ppm) of hydrogen
sulphide.
Waste heat from the CR200s external
waste-heat exchanger maintains the
required 35C (95F)
temperature in the digester. The

Capstone Heat Recovery Module will
provide approximately 276 kW of heat
from the microturbines exhaust and
deliver 2.3 million kWh of thermal energy.
The effciency of thermal generation
to supply hot water to heat the plants
digesters results in the production of
even more biogas that can be converted
for energy generation.
The biogas-fueled CHP system
features an overall energy effciency
level as high as 90%, compared to about
25%35% if the biogas is burned in a
stand-alone boiler.
Because of the projected reduction in
energy costs and environmental impact
from the installation of the microturbine,
the plant secured grants for the project
totalling A$750,000 (US$678,000) from
Sustainability Victoria and the Department
of Sustainability. The cogeneration plant,
offcially opened by energy and resources
minister Peter Batchelor at the facilitys
launch, will serve as a model for similar
projects at wastewater treatment facilities
throughout Australia. The emissions
reduction is equivalent to taking
450 cars off the road annually.
Microturbine technology produces a
waste gas with less than 9 ppm NOx
and 40 ppm carbon emissions, which is
signifcantly cleaner than the surrounding
urban air environment.
Plant managers from Western Water
predict that cost savings from the onsite
generation of electrical and thermal
power, plus green incentives offered
by the government, will justify the
installation of a second CR200 system,
and ultimately a third as demand
increases.
We aim to become a zero-waste
recycling plant by 2017, Franklin said.
Capstones clean-burning, low-emission
microturbine allows us to turn waste into
a resource in the most innovative way. The
reliable and low-maintenance turbine has
surpassed our expectations. This great
success has motivated us to continue
looking for other opportunities to further
reduce greenhouse gas emissions within
other recycled water treatment plants.

The International District Energy
Association, a non-proft trade body, also
continues to be active in assisting CHP and
district energy companies with exports.
Rob Thornton, IDEA president, says that
after some turbulence, the Middle East
is back on track as a good market for US
companies. Activity tends to focus on the
import of equipment, particularly chillers,
pipes, valves and meters.
Over 70% of the regions electricity is
used for air conditioning, and increased
attention is on greenhouse gas emissions
displaced
through
district
cooling,
Thornton said.
In meetings with Saudi Aramco, IDEA
has gleaned insight into why the region
emphasises energy effciency. Every unit of
effciency achieved in Saudi Arabia equals
4.2 units of oil saved.
That is critical in that oil is their fungible
export. They are burning oil to produce
highly subsidised electricity, which they are
not getting paid adequately for. They see
an almost immediate return on investment
from effciency, like combined heat and
power and district energy, Thornton said.
Whatever they save, they keep to sell.
In addition, rather than displacing
existing
energy
facilities,
energy
effciency helps the growing region to
avert construction of new infrastructure,
according to Thornton. This creates a
different dynamic around energy effciency
in the Middle East than in the US, where
utilities fear demand destruction.

THE FUTURE

CHP
odays heightened interest in

microgrids offers a new and
promising
opportunity
for
combined heat and power (CHP).
These mini-grids carve out and serve
a small portion of load, such as business
parks, military facilities or universities.
They can serve the central grid when it is
working or stand alone, islanded, when the
central grid is down.
Typically, a microgrid includes energy
storage, wires and some form of on-site
energy, such as combined heat and power
or solar.
Tom Gros, president of NRG Distributed
Generation, described the microgrid as the
most elegant form of distributed energy.
You are only going to see these things
become more and more prevalent as
people realise it is a very effcient way to
generate, he said.
Gros foresees microgrid confgurations
springing up in large and small cities
alike. We look for any place there is an
aggregation of folks who need energy
in the form of electricity and/or heating
and cooling, and where there is access to
natural gas, which is the most effcient,
cleanest burning fossil fuel we have that
provides us with 24/7 energy generation
capabilities, he said.
NRG designed, built, owns, operates
and maintains the microgrid at the
University Medical Center of Princeton
University. It supplies the medical campus
with electricity, steam and chilled water.
The New Jersey hospital stands as a
perfect example of a state-of-the-art
microgrid serving a critical care facility,
Gros said. In the last couple of weeks,

with the extreme weather in the Northeast,
natural gas was curtailed in the area serving
Princeton Hospital. But the hospital was
able to switch over seamlessly to burn light
fuel oil not in the gas turbines but in the
boilers and other systems.
Rob Thornton, president and CEO of the
International District Energy Association,
pointed out that the basics of the microgrid
are nothing new. District energy systems
have been built for more than hundred
years based on the same principles.
We have a new term for it, and a lot of
new eyeballs on it. But for those of us in the
industry, it is what we do, and have done,
and are successful with, Thornton said.
Energy planners and government offcials
have become increasingly interested in
microgrids as part of the push to improve
grid resiliency and reliability following
Superstorm Sandy. But microgrids also are
an economic play, according to Thornton.
What were hearing from mayors
and governors and local economic
development offcials they want to have
this clean energy microgrid capability as
part of their competitive offering as they
try to attract the next IBM, the next Google
campus, the next big pharma, the next
high quality employer, Thornton said.
For such blue chip corporations, energy
choice isnt just about price for power
anymore, he added. The companies also
seek power quality, clarity, reliability and
environmental beneft all of which CHP,
district energy or microgrids can deliver.
Although microgrids show great
promise, some hurdles exist. In particular,
regulators have yet to establish rules

that guarantee independent developers
fair access to the grid and a fair price for
electricity and services.
It isnt a technology issue; it isnt even a
capital issue. It is really policy transformation
that needs to occur, Thornton said.
Thornton also pointed out that industry
education is required about microgrids.
Some industry participants do not yet
understand their complexity and wrongly
defne the microgrid as a simple backup
generator. They fail to consider the
importance of the thermal component.
It remains unclear how state and
federal regulators will permit and monitor
microgrids. It is also unclear who the early
movers will be which players will dominate
development and ownership: utilities,
independent developers, large energy
users, government entities or others.
Several states are looking at these issues
and are instituting programmes to test
microgrids. Much of the interest is occurring
in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic, regions
hit hard by hurricanes and winter storms in
recent years.
Massachusetts has called together a
wide range of industry stakeholders to
explore what a modernised grid should
look like. The proceeding before the state
Department of Public Utilities is considering
utility investment in microgrids as well as
related smart meters, energy storage and
other new technologies.
Connecticut has issued two solicitations
for microgrid projects. The most recent,
in January 2014, offered $15 million in
funding. The state opened bidding to cities

outdated policies that impede microgrid
development.

New York is moving forward in several
ways, including a $20 million competition
to create microgrids on Long Island in
Nassau and Suffolk counties. Two winners
will each receive $10 million.
In October 2013, New Jersey distributed
Credit: NRG
$25 million to 146 government agencies to

develop microgrids and other projects that
improve grid resiliency. New Jersey is also
studying a frst-of-its-kind microgrid for a
transportation facility through a $1 million
federal grant.

Microgrids represent a signifcant wave of
the future. But CHP is advancing in more
conventional ways as well, as more and
more businesses and institutions see the
value of having on-site heat and power.
