o U.S. DOE Midwest Clean Application Center originally established in 2001 by U.S. DOE and ORNL to support DOE CHP Challenge

o Today the 8 Centers promote the use of CHP, District Energy, and Waste Heat Recovery Technologies

o Strategy: provide a technology outreach program to end users, policy, utility, and industry stakeholders focused on:

– Market analysis & evaluation– Education & outreach– Technical assistance

o Midwest Website: www.midwestcleanenergy.org

Advantages & Benefits of CHP

o Remember… CHP does not make sense in every application, but when it does, it can provide the following benefits

– Lower energy costs

– Reduced energy consumption

– Increased electric reliability

– Standby power

– Improved environmental quality

– Good public relations

– And more…

Page 6: CHP  Project Costs Screening

o All buildings and market sectors are not identical in terms of

– Energy consumption

– Energy demands

– Operating schedules

– Size of facilities

– Geographic location

– Electric and natural gas utilities

– Environmental concerns

o Therefore… it’s important to evaluate facilities individually!

Page 8: CHP  Project Costs Screening

o Do you pay more than $.06/kWh on average for electricity (including generation, transmission and distribution)?

o Are you concerned about the impact of current or future energy costs on your business?

o Are you concerned about power reliability? Is there a substantial financial impact to your business if the power goes out for 1 hour? For 5 minutes?

CHP Qualification Questions

8

Page 9: CHP  Project Costs Screening

o Does your facility operate for more than 5000 hours per year?

o Do you have thermal loads throughout the year (including steam, hot water, chilled water, hot air, etc.)?

o Does your facility have an existing central plant?

CHP Qualification Questions (2)

9

Page 10: CHP  Project Costs Screening

o Do you expect to replace, upgrade, or retrofit central plant equipment within the next 3-5 years?

o Do you anticipate a facility expansion or new construction project within the next 3-5 years?

o Have you already implemented energy efficiency measures and still have high energy costs?

CHP Qualification Questions (3)

10

Page 11: CHP  Project Costs Screening

o Are you interested in reducing your facility's impact on the environment?

o Do you have access to on-site or nearby biomass resources (i.e. landfill gas, farm manure, food processing waste, etc.?
