has anyone had much to do with combined heat & power units, we are looking at possibly going into the biomass CHP market as the Rhi on <200kw biomass boilers will be practically killed when the 25% drop comes in july.
 
Looked at it a couple of times, not gone there .. yet.. which manufacturers are you looking at ?

It has good possibilities, for reasonably sized power users - the key is in using all the power that's produced and in needing heat all year round. I can think of a few installation environments when it makes sense.
 
Been looking at the froling chp, 100kw heat, 50kw electric. But I think we will be looking for bigger +500kw systems. Need to look for hospitals, gyms, swimming pools, etc as you say somewhere that can use the heat all year round

Demand for Heating Not Firing Boiler
Hi, I have a Vailant EcoTec Boiler with a Megaflo. These are controlled by a Honeywell controller. I have one 3 port diverter, where one of the outputs goes to a 2 port diverter prior to the Megaflo (I believe this is some safety feature). I have run into an intermittent problem where some...

Frost protection valve, detect air or water temp?
Hi, Short version: Do frost protection valves trigger when the water in the pipe gets to threshold, or when the air temp drops? Long version: I'd rather use frost protection + anti-freeze cycle on my mitsubishi ecodan heat pump. The warranty is apparently fine with that combination, and it...
