In this case study we examine the feasibility of a 20-year Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) fueled CHP Microgrid (CHP + Solar), for a typical 241,351 sq.ft, 5 Floors Hospital (as described by the US DOE Reference Buildings) in 4 different states across the US; California, Texas, Pennsylvania, and Minnesota.

This article elaborates on the Green Hydrogen trends, and how relevant it is to the CHP industry from energy efficiency and cost competitiveness/feasibility.

This article explains the characteristics, advantages and disadvantages, and typical applications of the three CHP technology to help readers select the right one for their project.

In this Article, we answer the following questions:
•What makes for a feasible CHP Project?
•How can industry and location make for a perfect CHP project?
•Are there industries that are excellent CHP candidates?
•Are there locations that are great fit for CHP?

What if Hydrogen (H2) and Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) replaced conventional Natural Gas (NG) for Combined Heat and Power (CHP) applications? What if Hydrogen and RNG are both produced in large enough quantities to fill most of the needs for operating CHP plants and microgrids? In this article, we’ll explore the different types of Hydrogen and RNG, their current market share, their future and market growth, and how it compares with natural gas, and see how much they could realistically shift natural gas consumption in the next few decades.

In today’s ever-growing digital world, data centers are more important than ever before. Not only do they provide the backbone for critical business operations and communications, but they are also a key factor in achieving sustainability goals. To keep up with the increasing demand for data center services while still maintaining high levels of efficiency, availability, and sustainability, more businesses are turning to cogeneration systems.

Climate change is an eminent global issue driving the world to transform both its energy generation and consumption to achieve the goal of net zero Green House Gas (GHG) or Carbon emissions within the next 20 – 40 years. But are Solar and wind energies going to be a sufficient solution for this issue? Read on to learn more about the role of CHP as part of the microgrid industry.
