Combined Heat and Power Generation
Leverage the Full Potential of Combined Heat and Power Generation for Your Business.
Whether power generation (continuous, standby or primary power) or combined heat and power (CHP): MWM gas engines are efficient, reliable and precisely tailored to your needs.
Reuse of Waste Heat for Industrial Processes
MWM generator engines and cogeneration power plants simultaneously generate heat, power, and waste heat via cogeneration to supply the company and critical production processes with energy.
Combined heat and power generation achieves much better utilization of primary energy, as both the heat and the power are generated in a single process. Unlike conventional power plants, the waste heat generated by the engines is not lost in combined heat and power generation, but can be used for heating or industrial processes.
Higher Efficiency and Lower Fuel Consumption
CHP plants with MWM gas engines achieve efficiencies of up to 90 percent, while power plants with separate heat and power generation usually only achieve efficiencies of up to 50 percent. Thanks to the efficient use of primary energy, fuel consumption and emissions are significantly lower with combined heat and power generation than with conventional power plants.
Be on the Safe Side with Combined Heat and Power Generation
High Energy Efficiency
- Simultaneous generation of electricity, heat and waste heat
- Much better utilization of primary energy compared to separate energy generation
- Efficiencies of up to 90 percent achieved through combined heat and power generation with MWM gas engines
- High security of supply
Reduced Operating Costs
- Lower energy costs thanks to in-house energy generation with a CHP plant
- No dependence on external producers and their electricity prices
- Faster amortization of the CHP plant thanks to efficient energy generation
Flexible Operation
- Flexible adjustment of the output of the MWM gas engines and the CHP plant to changing energy needs
- Long service life and high operational reliability
- Ideal for companies with seasonal fluctuations in energy demand
