There are SIX solution sets available for Onsite Generation:

♦  Cogeneration
♦  Hydrogen
♦  Microgrids
♦  Solar PV
♦  Solar Thermal
♦  Standby Generation

For large and small businesses, on-site power generation can be an attractive alternative to buying power from your local electric utility.

Large on-site generation facilities that use large natural gas turbines can have capacities of several hundred megawatts. Smaller on-site generation systems, however, can be installed at commercial facilities, such as laundries, schools, hospitals and hotels.

On-site generation can be used both in the power generation mode only, or in the combined heat and power mode (cogeneration) where thermal energy that would ordinarily be rejected is cost-effectively used.

♦  Onsite generation in conjunction with storage systems can offer improved power quality. Harmonics, voltage sag and momentary outages can all be prevented through the use of such systems.

♦  Onsite generation can provide an essential redundancy to power provided by the local electric utility. This provides a dual source of energy that can provide for health and safety, industrial process continuity or significant protection from computer and information technology upset, resulting in significant cost savings.
