In response to the drive for renewable energy and a growing need for energy resilience, CHP offers the best of both worlds. The original motivators of CHP were based on its energy efficiency which resulted in reduced fuel use, emissions and operating costs, while the resilience benefits were accepted as a side benefit. With a reordering of priorities and the move to renewable sources of energy, CHP technology has evolved to meet the challenge. This seminar will explore renewable energy driven CHP technologies, how CHP is key to energy resilience and why CHP's energy efficiency trumps many other RE options.
