CHP Key Points:
  • Micro Combined Heat and Power (CHP) is a system that converts fuel, like gas or oil, into both electricity and heating. By using both the electricity and the heat produced, the overall efficiency of the system can be as high as 95%.
  • ICE Renewables are able to source a range of EC Power Micro CHP units including a 15kW gas CHP unit capable of producing between 15kW of electricity and 30kW of heating.
  • CHP can provide lower heating and electricity costs- Savings can be between 15% and 40% compared to imported electricity and onsite boilers

  • CHP systems can be designed to continue to operate and serve essential loads during an interruption to mains power supplies, increasing security of energy supplies.
  • Provides roughly 2 units of heating for every 1 of electricity produced.
  • Siting an onsite CHP unit within the electricity grid can strengthen the network and remove the need for network operators to upgrade the system.
   Ideal for:
  • Buildings with a constant heating and electricity demand. E.g. properties with a swimming pool etc.
  • Properties with access to mains gas
