Abstract

The current energy policy requires a constant technology development towards more sustainable energy transformation systems. Cogeneration and the use of renewables are two important solutions available to achieve this goal. If cogeneration is applied locally, e.g. as CHP (combined heat-and-power generation) modules with internal combustion engines, it leads to additional advantageous effects due to the decrease of energy transmission losses. To analyse such systems from the point of view of resource efficiency, the pure energy analysis is not sufficient since the quality of particular energy carriers is not evaluated.
