Cogeneration and Trigeneration

Cogeneration is the simultaneous creation of power and heat from a fuel source, most commonly Natural Gas. Trigeneration is the added benefit of cooling through an absorption chiller.

Industry’s that benefit most from Cogeneration.

  • Hospitals
  • Food Processing and Manufacturing Plants
  • Aquatic Centres
  • Abattoirs
  • Hotels and Commercial buildings
  • High Power and Heat consuming Industries
MWM Natural Gas Generator used for Cogeneration

A generator converts natural gas to electricity at 35-45% efficiency and emits 50%-60% less CO2 then typical grid supplied power. The heat generated from this process is also captured and used to further increase the systems efficiency by 30-40%.

This makes Cogeneration a great choice for industry’s that have a consistent use for power and heat and are looking to decrease their operational costs and carbon foot print.
