Combined Heat and Power

Combined Heat and Power Technologies

Combined heat and power is a technology which enables the simultaneous generation of clean and usable electrical power, heating, and hot water for the home from a single local source. Combined heat and power (often referred to as CHP), is a very efficient way to to heat and power homes using fossil and renewable fuels, reducing both energy bills and the CO2 emissions.

We have extensive experience in the supply and installation of energy efficient central heating systems, including combined heating services. We can install combined heating and power systems in your home, with some modern systems taking up a similar amount of space as a traditional combination boiler.

How do combined heat and power technologies work?

Whereas traditional heating systems transport energy from centralised plants and networks, combined heating and power systems produce energy - heat, hot water, and electricity - directly from a single local source.

What are the benefits of combined heating services?

The benefits of combined heating and power are wide ranging, including environmental and economic improvements. Combined heating and power systems generate heat and electricity locally within the installed unit, producing fewer carbon emissions and saving money on energy bills in the long term, by providing energy at a lower cost and offsetting electricity consumption. In addition, combined heating and power systems make extensive use of the heat produced during the electricity generation process, achieving efficiencies of over 70 per cent, even reaching 90 per cent according to some boiler manufacturer claims. Due to its high efficiency levels, combined heating and power is an effective way of meeting the UK Government's targets towards zero carbon homes as well as other Carbon Reduction Targets.

Although ongoing expansion plans are in place, our renewable energies and combined heating services, team currently operates within a local area, comprising Cheshire, Manchester, Wirral, Shropshire, and North Wales.
