COGENERATION AND TRIGENERATION SYSTEMS
Many industrial plants; or commercial facilities such as resorts, shopping malls, high-rise office buildings, universities, data centers and hospitals can reduce operating costs by applying a cogeneration system using natural gas as a fuel source. Cat® gas generator sets can simultaneously supply electricity for electrical loads and provide heat energy for the thermal requirements of the plant. Cat CHP projects offer up to 90% efficiency, while separate utility and natural gas boilers generally provide less than 65 percent efficiency. * Significant long-term savings in energy costs.
- It obtains energy in various forms, from electricity, heating and cooling from a single source and achieves high energy efficiency up to 90% in total.
- The required energy types are obtained at any time and amount.
- Production losses and quality problems due to network interruptions or fluctuations are avoided.
- Network dependency is minimized and they are affected by network interruptions and disturbances at the lowest level and increase their operational efficiency.
- A clean and environmentally friendly energy production is achieved with low carbon emissions.
- Systems pay themselves in about 2 to 3 years. (Feasibility study is carried out for each project.)
