Congratulations! You are now the proud owner of a combined heat and power (CHP) system, which is saving your organization energy and money while reducing your facility's impact on the environment every hour it runs! Now that your project is operational, take advantage of the CHP Partnership's public recognition opportunities for organizations and businesses that implement highly efficient CHP systems. - Estimate the carbon dioxide (CO2), sulfur dioxide (SO2), and nitrogen oxides (NOx) emission benefits from your CHP system, compared to separate heat and power, with the CHP Emissions Calculator.
- Most thermally base-loaded CHP systems qualify for acknowledgement under our program and systems that have one year of operating data may apply for an award.
