CONTACTS LIBRARY CAMPUS MAP SITE MAP ... Public Affairs and Development UNSW Wins 'Green' Energy Award 18 October 2002 The University of New South Wales has won an Energy Smart Green Globe Award for the installation of co-generation to power the university swimming pool. The award recognises UNSW as a key player in the renewable energy industry. "I believe that co-generation has the potential to make the single largest (immediate) contribution to our greenhouse targets, and further reduce our energy costs," said the Vice-Chancellor, Professor Wyatt R. Hume, who accepted the award from the New South Wales Minister for Energy, Kim Yeadon. Co-generation at the swimming pool was a pilot project for larger scale installations on campus, according to Mr Simon Ruben, the Manager of UNSW Engineering Services. The co-generation plant is integrated into the existing solar heating system and operates as a hybrid co-generation/solar heating system. Presently, the annual UNSW energy bill is $5 million and rising. Co-generation and photovoltaic cells will increasingly be installed, with participation from Photovoltaic and Solar Energy Engineering students, in a move to environmentally friendly energy. Other energy-saving activities on campus include solar water heating, unswitch promotions (which encourage the turning off of computers and monitors overnight) and upgrading the Library airconditioning system to become more efficient. Mr Robert Grimmett, UNSW Energy Manager, said the co-generation system at the pool could save up to 710 tonnes of CO2 per year.

Introduction Objectives Thrust areas Major Objectives ... Activities of PEDA Introduction The government of any country or state should ideally be the foremost practitioner of safe environmental practices that serves as an example to others to follow. Thus Punjab Energy Development Agency was formed in September 1991 as a nodal agency for promotion and development of non-conventional and renewable energy programmes or projects in the State of Punjab. The mission statement of Punjab Energy Development Agency says a lot about itself "PEDA - Working towards a Sustainable Energy future" With growing energy demand and concern for depletion of conventional fuel resources and associated environmental pollution, there is an urgent need to develop alternative non-conventional sources of energy in Punjab. The state is fortunately favourably endowed in this regard. The Punjab Energy Development Agency (PEDA) has recently been set up to give a fillip to these technology areas in the state. Objectives: Promotion and development/implementation of alternative nonconventional Energy technologies programmes/projects.

Independent Energy Supply Does ENERGIESTRO produce free energy ? What is co-generation ? What is biodiesel ? How does a flywheel store energy ? ... When will it be possible to buy an ENERGIESTRO system ? Does ENERGIESTRO produce free energy ? No, the principle of energy conservation is not violated! A fuel must always be provided. The interest of the ENERGIESTRO system is to allow a much more efficient use of this fuel than with existing systems, thanks in particular to the cogeneration. What is co-generation ? A conventional power plant runs at a global efficiency rate of 30%, which means that 70% of the fuel used is wasted as heat dissipated in the environment. Cogeneration –also called Combined Heat and Power or CHP- simply consists in using this heat instead of getting rid of it. However, since it is more difficult to transport heat than electricity, cogeneration is only possible when electricity is produced locally i.e. in the building itself. Thanks to cogeneration , more than 80% of the fuel can be used, which considerably reduces consumption, and consequently operating cost. With fossil fuels

Co-generation, Ethanol Production and CO2 Enhanced Oil Recovery: a Model for Environmentally and Economically Sound Linked Energy Systems Martin K. Dubois , Petroleum Research Section, Kansas Geological Survey, University of Kansas, 1930 Constant Avenue, Lawrence, KS 66047, phone: 785-864-2178, fax: 785-864-5317, mdubois@kgs.ukans.edu, Scott W. White, Energy Research Center, Kansas Geological Survey, 1930 Constant Ave, Lawrence, KS 66047, and Timothy R. Carr, Kansas Geological Survey, University of Kansas, 1930 Constant Ave, Lawrence, KS 66047. An electrical co-generation, ethanol fuel production and carbon dioxide (CO2) enhanced oil recovery (EOR) project in central Kansas is a unique scalable model for linked energy systems. Waste heat from a 15-megawatt gas-fired turbine municipal generator provides heat inputs for a 25 million gallon per year ethanol plant. Carbon dioxide, a fermentation process byproduct of ethanol production, will be utilized by a CO2 miscible flood demonstration project. Efficiencies gained in byproduct utilization and energy use by linking traditional and alternative energy systems enhance the economics of each while creating environmental benefits through geologic sequestration of CO2. The Kansas project is the first to use CO2 emissions from ethanol production in an EOR project. The full CO2 stream from this single ethanol plant could supply a small commercial project capable of producing five million barrels of oil and sequestering 1.5 million tons of CO2 over twenty years. Currently the U.S. ethanol industry is directly, or indirectly, releasing five million tons of CO2 per year to the atmosphere. However, ethanol production (and associated CO2 emissions) is projected to double by the year 2005 as ethanol replaces MTBE as a gasoline oxygenate. Through linked systems of power generation, ethanol production and CO2 enhanced oil recovery, opportunities exist for "value added" geologic CO2 sequestration. Strategically locating and scaling "Kansas models" near CO2 EOR target reservoirs that are distant from traditional geologic CO2 sources could add significant EOR reserves throughout the U.S., strengthen the ethanol industry and cost-effectively sequester CO2.

68. Innovative Co-generation System Saves College $1,200 - $1,500 A Day But church officials found an innovative answer to their energysaving prayers ina unique, award-wining chilled water system that was designed by Carpenter http://www.bellgossett.com/Stories/ChurchCuts.html

The cost of air conditioning a 167,000 sq. ft. facility can be extremely expensive. But when the facility happens to be one of the largest churches in America and is located in humid Central Florida, the costs can be sinfully expensive. Situated on a campus-like 100-acre site, Carpenter Home Church in Lakeland, Fla., has a sanctuary the size of three football fields (167,000 sq. ft.) that seats 10,000. The overall church building complex includes three multi-story buildings and covers some 300,000 square feet. Within the structure are an elementary school, cafeteria, radio and television stations, a bookstore, foreign ministry and administrative offices. When construction plans were being finalized in 1984, church officials became concerned about the cost of cooling such a large facility via conventional electric air conditioning methods. City of Lakeland officials told church administrators that monthly electricity charges could approach $35,000. Basic electric charges averaged 4.7 cents per kilowatt hour, but peak rates in the area surged to 7.36 cents per kilowatt hour. So, utility costs alone for a special event in the sanctuary could add up to several thousand dollars. I've always been interested in reducing utility costs because they're recurring costs, said Joe Perez, Carpenter Home's general manager. We couldn't do much about the fixed unit cost of electricity, but we thought the peak demand charges could be reduced through a more efficient use of natural gas energy.

71. ENERGY FACTS: COGENERATION In Canada and most industrialized countries, the biggest single wastage of energyoccurs at power plants when fossil fuels are burned to produce electricity. http://www.iclei.org/efacts/cogen.htm

COGENERATION Figure 1 illustrates the increase in efficiency. In Case A, 100 units of fuel produce 40 units of electricity (40% efficiency). In Case B, 200 units of fuel produce 40 units of electricity and 120 units of heat (80% efficiency). Cogen Power Plants The concept of cogeneration can be applied to power plants of any size, from 'micro cogen' units for individual houses to full size grid connected utility generating stations. Micro cogen units ( <500 kW) are usually based upon a spark ignition internal combustion engine burning gasoline, diesel or natural gas. Mechanical power from the engine turns a generator to produce electricity (like portable generators seen on construction sites). The hot exhaust gases are passed through a bank of pipes to heat the water in them before being released into the atmosphere. The Italian automobile manufacturer FIAT produces a micro cogen unit based upon a small automobile engine which produces enough electricity and heat for a large house.

Utility Power Distributed Generation Types of Plants Technologies Codes and Certifications Fast Facts ... Home Distributed Power Generation: compare Solar Energy with alternative energy sources Solar Energy is often talked of in the context of other Renewable Energy technologies that also have Distributed Energy Generation potential. Distributed Generation is defined as the generation of energy close to the point of use. Distributed generation typically ranges from 1 kilowatt to 5 Megawatts in capacity. This contrasts with Central Generation , which is associated with large 500 to 3000 Megawatt generating plants that are usually located at a distance from where the energy is consumed. The electricity is then transported through the transmission and distribution infrastructure to the customer/user. Distributed generation has these advantages: it can reduce or avoid the necessity to build new transmission/distribution lines or upgrade existing ones it can be configured to meet peak power needs it can diversify the range of energy sources in use and increase the reliability of the grid network it can be configured to provide premium power, when coupled with uninterruptible power supply (UPS)

Europa The European Union in the World Delegations The European Commission's Delegation to Colombia and Ecuador [EN] - ES home what's new? links ... EU Guide What's new? Commission proposes co-generation Directive to save energy and combat climate change A proposal for a Directive aimed at saving energy and combating climate change by promoting the co-generation of heat and power was presented by the European Commission today. Co-generation is a technique through which heat and electricity are produced in one single process. New co-generation plants save at least 10% of the fuel otherwise used for separate production of heat and electricity. "We are determined to continue meeting the challenges of energy security of supply and climate change we set in the November 2000 Energy Green Paper " said Vice President Loyola de Palacio, Commissioner for Energy and Transport. "This new proposal would help limit the growing external dependence for energy and harmful greenhouse gases emissions. It complements the Renewable Directive and our recent proposals on energy efficiency in buildings and biofuels, in setting up a new regulatory framework to encourage energy saving and the use of new energies". The production of electricity through co-generation represented 11% of the Union's total electricity production in 1998, leading to energy savings comparable to the annual gross energy consumption of Austria or Greece. The potential for co-generation is however much greater and huge energy savings could be made if high efficient techniques were more widespread. If, for example, the co-generation share in electricity production increased to 18% of total electricity supply, energy savings in the range of 3-4% of the Union's total gross inland energy consumption could be yielded. Subsequent reductions in greenhouse gases emissions could amount to 65 million tonnes of CO2/year, which would go a considerable way towards meeting the Union's Kyoto commitment .

Implementing decentralized co-generation: The Frankfurt case study Case Study (57 Kb) Introduction As one of the founders of "Climate Alliance", a group of municipalities in Europe formed to protect the climate, Frankfurt am Main decided in 1991 to set a global objective of cutting CO by 50% till 2010. To organize the process of CO2 reduction and to develop an energy concept for Frankfurt, the "Energiereferat" was founded as a local energy agency in 1989. To achieve the ambitious goal on CO2-reduction, activities concentrated on the following areas: designing low-energy homes with a heat consumption 20 % below the actual national regulations - at present 50 to 75 kWh/m² a - and define strict heat consumption standards for the urban area saving electricity in housing, offices and industry promoting solar thermal- and photovoltaic energy and systematically help implementing small or medium size decentralized co-generation units Summary of Results Experience in Frankfurt demonstrated that co-generation could assist communities in reducing CO -emissions and improving energy efficiency. The 53 plants in operation reduce CO2 in Frankfurt by more than 60.000 tons per annum.

An inherent property of the steam cycle is that much of the heat energy contained in the steam cannot be converted to electricity but must be rejected as low-grade heat to cooling water. In conventional power generation, up to two thirds of the energy input can be lost in this way. In combined heat and power (CHP) or cogeneration systems, low-grade heat generated in the process is recovered and utilised via suitable heat recovery equipment for a range of purposes including industrial processes, district heating and space heating. In the most optimised applications, a CHP plant can also export electricity to another user. This can result in considerable energy savings. Due to the utilisation of heat from electricity generation and the avoidance of transmission losses because electricity is generated on site, CHP typically achieves 35% reduction in primary energy usage compared with power stations and heat-only boilers. This can allow the host organisation to make economic savings where there is a suitable balance between heat and power loads. However, CHP can represent a considerable investment and, to maximise the benefits, the system must meet the heat demand for the application it serves. For most users CHP needs careful examination during the feasibility stage. A further benefit of the reduced energy requirement is the pro-rata reduction in carbon dioxide (CO ), sulphur dioxide (SO

CII News Press Releases : 2000 : MARCH 3500 MW CAN BE GENERATED THROUGH CO-GENERATION: SECRETARY, NON-CONVENTIONAL ENERGY SEVERAL CO-GENERATION PROJECTS TO BE TAKEN UP IN NINTH PLAN 3500 MW of power could be produced through co-generation if all the sugar mills in the country switched over to modern co-generation techniques, said Mr. N.N. Mookerjee, Secretary, Ministry of Non-Conventional Energy Sources (MNES), Government of India at a "National Workshop on Co-Generation" jointly organised by CII and the MNES today. This workshop is concurrent with CII's Sugar Tech 2000 exposition being held in New Delhi from 2nd to 5th March, 2000. Maharashtra and Uttar Pradesh can produce 1000 MW of power each through bagasse co-generation, Mr. Mookerjee added. Co-generation projects comparable favourably in cost with conventional energy projects, Mr. Mookerjee pointed out. The capital cost for these projects range from Rs. 2.5. crore per MW to Rs. 3.5 crore per MW, and the unit cost of generation ranges from Rs. 1.50 to Rs. 2.75 per unit. Costs could be further reduced in cases where a higher plant load factor is generated through longer availability of bagasse and alternative biomass, he added. Surplus power generation through sugar mills did not receive as much importance as it deserved until 1994, said Mr. Mookerjee, as at that time there was not a large market for the power produced. The MNES has worked actively with state governments, State Electricity Boards, sugar mills and financial institutions to create an enabling atmosphere for the growth of power through co-generation, he said. There are several schemes and incentives in place for co-generation projects now, at both the Central and State level, Mr. Mookerjee added.
