CHP and Fuel Cells: local and reliable energy
Technologies and components
Bloom Energy has implemented a significant project at the Energy and Innovation Park (EIP) in Connecticut, combining fuel cells with a total capacity of 20 MW and 5 MW of CHP. The heat generated by the cogeneration system provides hot water to a nearby cement plant and supports the local utility, Eversource, in managing electricity production. The project required coordination among multiple stakeholders, including fuel cell and transformer manufacturers, CHP suppliers, utilities, and end users. Thanks to the synergy between CHP and fuel cells, the system delivers clean, reliable, on-site distributed energy. The project has resulted not only in energy savings but also in significant additional revenue.
