The
investment in a 2G
system
is
always profitable,
regardless of
statutory
funding and
is
therefore
not
dependent on
these programs.
Details
for the
feed
compensation can
be found at
www.bmu.de. Nonetheless, a
combined heat
and power
project is
often supported
by additional
programs of the
federal
government
and other
sources.

We
offer a
no obligation,
“at no cost to you”
consultation by
one of our own experts.
Based on your individual energy
conditions, he
will create
a solution
tailored to your
environment
feasibility
study. This
gives you a
detailed overview of
costs incurred
and
the
expected time
for
return on your
investment.

Once
we
have
identified,
subsequent to a
short
consultation,
which is the
suitable 2G
system for your
needs,
we
can
give you
the
time
of delivery.

The
time required for
the operation
of a CHP
investment
is
crucially
dependent on the
very
conditions of
the individual
operator.
In order to
submit a
quote that
exactly meets
your needs,
we
want to offer
you
a no obligation
and, at no cost
to you, consultation with an
expert from our
factory. Make

CHPs
do not require
planning
permission if
the
fuel
capacity (heat
input) is less
than 50 kW,
the installation
is performed by
a specialty
company and
the local chimney sweep has been considered, prior to start
up, assuring safe
operation. For
a CHP unit
with higher
power a building
permit must be obtained from the responsible
agency of the district
or
the city.

necessary

In
combined heat and power the energy carrier, gas, is used very
efficiently. By a high overall efficiency, compared to conventional
power generation in a power plant (see illustration), the energy loss
is reduced to a minimum.
CHP
stands for
combined heat
and power:
Electricity is
produced in
a CHP plant
by using
kinetic energy.
The engine
drives the
generator; very
much like in a
large power
plant, when the
generated
power is
converted into electricity.
In addition the
residual heat,
generated during
power generation
in
combined heat
and power, is
used. Two
types of
waste heat
are produced by
generating electricity
through
cogeneration.
The engine
itself is cooled
using
water that is
heated and
transferred
via
heat
exchanger
to the heating
plate.
Furthermore, the
heat
produced during
combustion is,
via heat exchanger, decoupled
to
ensure
maximum
energy
efficiency.
The heated
water
can
now be used
i.e. for process
heat
and hot
water
supply.
Because of its
enormous
profitability and
efficiency CHP
will be
successful for
a long time
in industry,
commerce and
used by
the
building
sector, where
electricity and
heat are
required
simultaneously.
The
key difference
-
and value
-
is that the CHP
first applies the heat energy generated to the motor to produce
electricity, and then transmitted via the cooling circuit to the
heater. Unlike a gas heater which solely generates heat, 2G systems
(CHP) also produce valuable energy.
The
principle of combined heat
and power (CHP)
is the parallel
production of
usable heat
and electricity
(power). In
the CHP,
the
waste heat
produced during
power generation
is actively
used, for
example for
the production
of process heat
and hot water.
