Combined Heat and Power

Profitable Solution for Heat & Power

CHP – Combined Heat & Power units use natural gas to power an engine that is designed to generate electricity through an alternator. Recovering waste heat and converting it into usable heat improves savings further.

We analyse, design, install and maintain combined heat and power solutions which provide up to 50% in energy savings and typically pay back within 2-3 years.

Is CHP right for my business?

Do you have a natural gas connection?
Do you spend over £75,000 on your electricity?
Do you have energy use overnight?

If you answered “yes” to the three questions above, a Combined Heat and Power solution may be appropriate for you, and NerG can help you assess this using our tried and tested methodology.

The Benefits of CHP

NerG Heat & Power Solutions

Running a Combined Heat and Power solution provides a wide range of benefits.

Reduce Energy Costs

Using CHP – Combined Heat & Power to generate electricity can reduce your electrical unit rate by up to 45%, with CHP heat use increasing this to 50%.

Carbon Reduction

The economics of CHP is such that Green Gas can be used to dramatically reduce your operational carbon footprint.

Operational Resilience

If your operations can be severly impacted by grid outages, then CHP’s can provide a lifeline by enabling island operation.

Heating and Cooling

Heat recovered from the engine can be offset against other on site heat uses, such as hot water, thermal oil or steam. CHP’s can also be used for tri-generation, where waste heat is converted to cooling via an absorption chiller.

Energy Security

By generating your own electricity, organisations can protect themselves against price volatility and guarantee a security of supply. As electricity gets proportionally more expensive than gas, it makes more and more sense to generate your own electricity.
