Dalkia provides a full spectrum of energy efficient technologies and services to commercial and industrial companies nationwide.
Tecogen CHP products are among the most efficient ways to provide
electricity and heat to a building. Fueled by plentiful and inexpensive
natural gas, a proven internal combustion engine provides on-site
generation of electricity while its high-grade waste heat is recovered and
purposefully used to serve the building’s hot water needs. This boost in
overall efficiency translates into immediate dollar savings of up to 50% for
building owners.
Extraordinary efficiency translates into less fuel consumption for the same
amount of electrical and thermal energy produced. This results in a
considerable reduction in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of more than
40%. Also, with Tecogen’s patented Ultera system, pollutant emissions are
nearly eliminated, meeting the toughest air emission standards in the
United States including in California and the Northeast. In New Jersey, for
instance, the Ultera system is air permit exempt. With Ultera, the resulting
NOx/CO emissions levels are comparable to, or lower than, those from less
efficient gas-consuming generation technologies, such as microturbines
and fuel cells.
TECOGEN™ modules are ETL-Listed for product safety certification and
have been type tested to comply with the interconnection standards of
IEEE P1547/D07 and NYSIR, and are certified by UL as Non-Islanding. All
units are factory run-tested at full-load prior to shipment to ensure superior
quality.
Modules come fully pre-packaged from the factory, including engine,
generator, oil/ jacket/ exhaust heat recovery, controls, electrical switchgear,
emissions controls, and modem for remote monitoring and data-logging.
This allows for standardization and minimizes installation cost and
complexity in the field. Also, the comprehensive third-party (ETL/IEEE/
NYSIR/UL) certifications provide streamlined interconnection permitting
with the local electric utility.
