Combined heat and power: a discussion of Energy Paper 20

Armson, Rosalind (1977). Combined heat and power: a discussion of Energy Paper 20. ERG Report 18; Energy Research Group, The Open University, Milton Keynes.

Abstract

This report has been written in direct response to the Department of Energy's report 'District heating combined with electricity generation in the United Kingdom' (Energy report no. 20). It seeks to extend the arguments presented in that report. Detailed comment on the methodology and results of the Department's study are confined to Appendix 3 of this report.

For some time combined heat and power has been talking about in a very general way and discussion has frequently concluded that CHP is a "good idea needing further study". The report from the Department's working party is thus a very welcome attempt to place the CHP concept into a numerate context where the real questions to be resolved become clearly defined and where a policy framework begins to evolve.
