Combined Heat & Power

Zemel Road Landfill PlantIn the United States, over two-thirds of the fuel used to generate power is lost as waste heat. Combined Heat & Power (CHP) is the process of using a single fuel source to simultaneously generate electricity and useful thermal energy for heating and cooling purposes.  CHP technologies are proven methods for lowering operating expenses and increasing the value of assets while simultaneously attaining greenhouse gas reduction goals.
