DESCRIPTION:“Combined heat and power (CHP)\, also known as cogenera­tion
 \, produces both electricity and thermal energy on-site [from a single sou
 rce]\, replacing or supplementing electricity provided from a local utilit
 y and fuel burned in an on-site boiler or furnace. CHP systems increase en
 ergy security by producing energy at the point of use\, and significantly 
 improve energy efficiency.”\n\nCHP does not replace the requirement for 
 emergency back-up diesel generation. What it does is provide a reliable an
 d sustainable energy source without fear of power shutdowns due to drastic
  weather conditions or other cause that might prompt a power outage for th
 e grid.\n\nThe presentation will focus on the high costs of electricity an
 d how an alternate strategy to reduce overall utility costs by taking adva
 ntage of the combined heat and power (CHP). The CHP systems offer consider
 able environmental benefits when compared with purchased electricity and t
 hermal energy produced on site. By capturing and utilizing heat that would
  otherwise be wasted from the production of electricity\, CHP systems requ
 ire less fuel to produce the same amount of energy. Find out more on how y
 ou may be able use this technique to save costs and energy.\n\n[https://ww
