Summary

This is a revised version of the first publication in a series of Analysis Report. It has focused on units in the 30-1000-kilowatt range and its purpose is to provide an understanding of the different types of small-scale system available and to give examples of practical applications. It claims that the development of gas turbine and engine technology means that small-scale decentralised cogeneration can be widely used in towns and cities, industry and buildings, for highly-efficient production of electricity, heating and cooling. Extract from the table of contents: the technology (heat recovery; gas turbines; absorption chillers; heat pumps); new technologies; performance; environment; system design and applications; economics and financing. Demonstration projects and survey results (details of 30 projects) are also presented.
