Cogeneration (also called Combined Heat and Power – CHP) is a system that produces electricity and heat at the same time. Instead of wasting the heat created during electricity production, it is captured and reused for heating or cooling. This improves energy efficiency and reduces energy loss.

It ensures a steady and reliable power supply by turning the fuel’s chemical energy into mechanical energy, and then into electricity.
It captures heat from exhaust gases, allowing up to 55% of the fuel’s energy to be recovered and reused.
By cooling the intake air, it provides dense, oxygen-rich air to boost engine performance. Nearly 12% of fuel energy is recovered through turbocharged air.
It captures waste heat while cooling the engine oil, allowing about 9% of the fuel’s energy to be recovered.
Energy Savings: Helps reduce energy costs significantly by maximizing fuel use.
Eco-Friendly: Generates cleaner energy with lower carbon emissions, supporting a greener environment.
Energy Security: Reduces reliance on the power grid and ensures continuous operation during outages.
Flexibility: Provides electricity, heating, and cooling from one system, meeting multiple energy needs at once.
