Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Cogeneration can now turn up to 90% of the fuel burned into usable energy — compared to just 52% of the fuel typically burned in the local power plant and in a separate existing hot water heating system.. The fully updated second edition of this comprehensive, best selling reference provides a wealth of information to assist you in evaluating the feasibility and potential benefits of cogeneration for your facility. Covered in detail are recent regulatory developments and their impact, system selection and sizing, permitting requirements, operation and maintenance, financing, technology basics, micro turbines, absorption chillers, distributed generation, and case histories.


From the Back Cover

As the technologies for small-scale cogeneration have advanced over the last decade, a greater number of commercial, institutional, governmental and industrial energy users are seeing the advantages offered by these highly efficient systems. Cogeneration can now turn up to 90% of the fuel burned into usable energy. In addition, because cogeneration uses less fuel, overall fewer pollutants are emitted into the atmosphere. Cogenerators are also well positioned to benefit from today's more liberalized and competitive energy markets. This comprehensive reference provides a wealth of information to assist you in evaluating the feasibility and potential benefits of cogeneration for your facility. Covered in detail are recent regulatory developments and their impact, system selection and sizing, permitting requirements, operation and maintenance, financing, technology basics, micro turbines, absorption chillers, distributed generation, and case histories. --This text refers to an alternate Hardcover edition.

1.0 out of 5 stars Small-Scale Cogeneration Handbook, September 2, 2009
Very ordinary book, lacking in detailed technical information that I would expect from a book with this title. To much blurb about the machinations of the cogeneration industry and the authors role in the industry. This was of little interest to me as a technical person.

I would not recommend this book. Too much fluff and not enough substance.
