BENEFITS OF CHP.

The combined heat and power systems of MTU Onsite Energy not only supply energy – they provide better energy. The superiority of this technology has four major advantages:

Profitability of CHP plants

Currently many governments support and even subsidize CHP systems. Therefore the use of these systems offers promising revenue potential. An MTU Onsite Energy profitability analysis demonstrates a customer’s profit potential when using an MTU Onsite Energy CHP system.

Pollution reduction

One of today’s main challenges is to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases.
In comparison with conventional power generation, MTU Onsite Energy CHP modules provide a CO2 reduction of up to 50%.

Reduction in primary energy use

Combined heat and power (CHP) systems make use of a combustion engine to drive a power generator. Heat accrued during the combustion process is transferred via heat exchangers and provided to consumers.

The high efficiency of CHP systems enables up to 40% reduction in primary energy usage compared to conventional power plants.

Independent supply

In areas with missing or unreliable public infrastructure, MTU Onsite Energy systems ensure independent power and heat supply.
