Combined Heat and Power (CHP) Technology

Combined Heat and Power technology provides a clean and reliable solution for generating power and thermal energy.

Caterpillar Power Generation Systems offers fully engineered Combined Heat and Power (CHP) technology and solutions, which provide a clean, efficient and reliable approach to generating power and thermal energy from a single fuel source. CHP systems offer considerable environmental benefits when compared with purchased electricity and onsite-generated heat.

By utilizing the heat byproduct of electricity generation, CHP solutions can be designed to meet the thermal and electrical base loads of a facility. This advanced technology decreases energy costs and increases efficiency by up to 90%. Less fuel needs to be consumed to generate the same amount of energy, resulting in fewer emissions.

We have the experience and capability to engineer the right CHP solution to meet your requirements; we provide sizing, evaluation of your electrical load profile and assessment of your heat demand.

Caterpillar^® CHP solutions provide you with the following benefits:

• Completely engineered solutions from extensive power generation experience
• Reduced energy costs
• Lower emissions
• Excellent reliability
• Flexibility in support, application, engineering and design
• Modular components, supporting ease of installation and reliable operation
• Increased security and power quality, protecting your revenue stream
• After sales support, service and performance guarantees of your CHP asset
