Combined Heat & Power

Combined Heat and Power (CHP) systems are designed to maximize energy efficiency and reduce waste. By capturing the heat generated during the production of electricity, CHP systems provide two sources of energy – electricity and thermal energy – from a single fuel source.


With the growing demand for renewable energy solutions, biomass CHP systems are becoming increasingly popular among businesses and organisations looking to reduce their carbon footprint and energy costs. 

CHP Benefits

  • Energy efficiency: CHP systems are designed to maximize energy efficiency, reducing waste and minimizing costs in the process.
  • Reduced emissions: By using clean fuel sources, such as natural gas and biogas, CHP systems reduce emissions and contribute to a cleaner environment.
  • Reliable energy: Our CHP solutions provide reliable energy, reducing the need for traditional energy sources and providing a secure energy supply.
  • Cost savings: By capturing the heat generated during the production of electricity, CHP systems reduce energy costs and provide long-term savings.

Here are some of the previous CHP projects that we have successfully performed prior to the Ecogenesis project:

Biosus Energy, a trusted provider of renewable energy solutions, partnered with Dean's of Huntly to implement a 200kW Combined Heat and Power (CHP) system at their manufacturing facility generating over 1.68GWh per year. In addition, Biosus Energy was entrusted with the operations and maintenance (O&M) of the system, ensuring its smooth operation and longevity.

The key features of the solution were:

  • A customised CHP system, meeting energy requirements efficiently.
  • Ongoing support and maintenance services from Biosus Energy.
  • Reduced reliance on grid-supplied electricity and traditional heating methods for Dean's of Huntly.

 

Biosus Energy collaborated with Associated Seafoods to design and install a 200kW Combined Heat and Power (CHP) system at their March Road facility generating 1.6GWh of power. The CHP system utilised natural gas as a fuel source to generate electricity and capture waste heat for heating, cooling using a specialised absorption cooler and hot water requirements.

Biosus Energy's expertise in CHP system design and support was key to the project's success, delivering a tailored solution that aligned precisely with Associated Seafoods' energy goals through close collaboration.

This resulted in:

  • Annual energy cost savings of over 30%.
  • Enhanced energy independence and resilience.
