A combined heat and power plant (CHP) is an energy generation system that provides both heat and electricity to one or more buildings. In a CHP unit, the combustion of a fuel drives a generator to produce electricity, while the resulting heat is transferred to a storage unit. The principle of CHPs is based on combined heat and power (CHP) technology and is commonly used in district heating networks. Depending on the fuel used, this process can be very environmentally friendly and is subsidized by federal and state governments, as well as energy providers. In addition to fossil fuels, renewable energy sources can also be used. The electricity generated can be consumed on-site or fed into the public grid.
Since both electricity and heat are produced from a single fuel source, the energy efficiency of a building connected to a CHP unit is typically significantly improved. CHPs can play a major role in the decarbonization of buildings and contribute to cost savings for operators through increased efficiency. When powered by biogas, CHPs also reduce CO~2~ emissions, making them a vital component of sustainable and energy-independent building operations.
