Gas Cogeneration

Energy self-suffiency and operational savings

Cogeneration is a process that allows the simultaneous production of two or more forms of energy from a single fuel. The most common process is the production of electricity and thermal energy by using natural gas or biomass.

How does it work?

In addition to energy generation, cogeneration consists of recovering the heat dissipated by using the exhaust gases to produce steam, hot air and refrigeration, which can be used in the production processes.

The cogeneration system produces more reliable energy, since the customer generates its energy in a decentralized way, that is, in the place of consumption, resulting in a redundancy in the system that turns the power grid into a backup.

What are the main advantages of this system?

Reliable

In addition to offering more than one power source, it may work as a backup power source.
Cost-efficient

Reduction in the total costs of energy by ensuring a solution for several end uses.
Sustainable

Reduction of environmental impacts due to lower emissions of pollutants and CO2 compared to other sources of energy.
Custom-made

This solution is designed and custom-made for the customer so that it is suitable for its end uses.
