Microgrids and Energy-as-a-Service

 Energy as a Service enables the efficient utilization of resources and assets by helping customers modify energy consumption with time-of-use and real-time pricing.

microgrid systems with equipment re-use re-manufacturing and redeployment

A client-centric approach that reduces energy consumption and costs in collaboration with local utilities and service providers. EaaS:

o   requires no money down or investments by the project beneficiaries

o   includes equipment and components life cycle management and after sales services

o   offers local and regional employment opportunities as well as contracting opportunities

o   features environment friendly services

o   utilizes performance-based payment systems and client discounts

Utilities are project(s) participants. Clients own plant and equipment after 5 years

Distributed Generation occurs on a property site when energy is sold to the building occupants; Power Purchase Agreements - PPAs - enable businesses and governments to purchase electricity directly from the generator rather than from the utility. 

PPAs are a legal contract between an electricity generator and a power purchaser

Microgrids are electric grids that manage energy and ensure reliable delivery. A self-sufficient, energy plant, the microgrid serves a specific geographic area, neighborhood, and community with distributed energy resources - solar, wind, CHP, other - energy storage, as well as electric vehicle charging stations. Interconnected to nearby buildings, the microgrid provides electricity, heating, and cooling.

community-friendly microgrids: a cheaper alternative in infrastructure development

As-a-Service Models work particularly well for capital-intensive energy projects; EaaS shifts long-term capital expenditures into a short-term operational expense.

EaaS secures microgrid benefits without risk. The microgrid can serve as the primary source of electrical power, as the emergency backup source of power in the event of a grid outage as it captures reduced energy consumption and utility bills, and sells surplus electricity to the local grid operator. 

 

CHP Combined Heat and Power FAQs

Combined Heat and Power: Frequently Asked Questions FAQs

What is combined heat and power (CHP)?  An efficient and clean approach to generating electric power and useful thermal energy from a single fuel source. CHP is used either to replace or supplement conventional separate heat and power (SHP). Instead of purchasing electricity from the local utility and burning fuel in an on-site furnace or boiler to produce thermal energy, an industrial or commercial facility can use CHP to provide both energy services in one energy-efficient step.

How Does CHP Work?

o   CHP involves the recovery of otherwise-wasted thermal energy to produce useful thermal energy or electricity, configured either as a topping or bottoming cycle.

o   In a typical topping cycle system, fuel is combusted in a prime mover such as a gas turbine or reciprocating engine to generate electricity. Energy normally lost in the prime mover’s hot exhaust and cooling systems is instead recovered to provide heat for industrial processes, hot water, or for space heating, cooling, and dehumidification.

o   In a bottoming cycle system, also referred to as “waste heat recovery,” fuel is combusted to provide thermal input to a furnace or other industrial process and heat rejected from the process is then used for electricity production.

Why is CHP more efficient than conventional electricity generation? CHP is a form of distributed generation, which is located at or near the energy-consuming facility, whereas conventional generation takes place in large centrally-located power plants. CHP’s higher efficiency comes from recovering the heat normally lost in power generation or industrial processes to provide heating or cooling on site, or to generate additional electricity. CHP’s inherent higher efficiency and elimination of transmission and distribution losses from the central power plant results in reduced primary energy use and lower greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.

Is CHP widely used in the United States?

·         The existing 82 GW of CHP capacity at almost 3,600 facilities represents 8 percent of current U.S. generating capacity and 12 percent of total electricity generated.

·         CHP is used in every state, and is primarily found in areas with high concentrations of industrial and commercial activity, high electricity prices, and policies favorable to CHP.

What kinds of facilities use CHP?  
CHP can be utilized in a variety of applications that have significant electric and thermal loads. Eighty-eight percent of existing CHP capacity is found in industrial applications, providing electricity and steam to energy-intensive industries such as chemicals, paper, refining, food processing, and metals manufacturing. CHP in commercial and institutional applications is currently 12 percent of existing capacity, providing electricity, steam, and hot water to hospitals, schools, university campuses, hotels, nursing homes, office buildings and apartment complexes.

 

What are the benefits of CHP for the energy user?

Ø  CHP reduces energy costs for the user.

Ø  CHP reduces the risk of electric grid disruptions and enhances energy reliability for the user. This is particularly useful for hospitals, research institutions, or industrial facilities where electric power outages are particularly disruptive and costly.

Ø  CHP provides predictability in the face of uncertain electricity prices.

What are the benefits of CHP for Your Community?

o   CHP reduces emissions of GHGs and other air pollutants by as much as 40 percent or more.

o   CHP consumes essentially zero water resources in generating electricity (a typical coal fired power plant consumes 0.2 to 0.6 gallons of water per kWh).

o   CHP offers a low-cost approach to adding new electricity generation capacity.

o   On-site electric generation reduces grid congestion and improves the reliability of the electricity distribution system.

o   CHP defers the need for investments in new central generating plants, transmission and distribution infrastructure, helping to minimize increases in electricity costs.

o   CHP uses highly-skilled local labor and technology.
