COGENERATION
Cogeneration represent a real time method of reducing energy costs with fuel efficiency as high as 80-85 % , cogeneration is a logical contribution to improved industrial productivity.
The wide spread for cogeneration application, particularly for hotels, hospitals, and industrial facilities, has been considered for its own economic merits and reduced operating costs, and for USA and many countries in the world it was mainly for its fuel efficiency,
Electric Utilities, also not universally pleased with the rules of the cogeneration, they appreciate the opportunity to add capacity without capital investment. In some cases they even participating on a joint venture investment basis.
Please refer to SSI website for experience with cogeneration plants in California, Oregon, Arizona, Poland, Mexico, Virgin Islands, Hawaii, Oman, Saudi Arabia, Egypt and other countries in the Middle East.
