\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The Maryland Energy Administration (MEA) developed a new resource guide on Combined Heat and Power (CHP)<\/a> to fully explain this dynamic technology. CHP systems <\/span>combine technologies to maximize energy efficiency and reduce waste. Traditional fossil fuel power plants run only at a 33% level of efficiency but a CHP system can operate at an 80% efficiency level.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

CHP is a technology that provides continuous electricity and thermal energy from a single fuel source to power a facility\u2019s operations. CHP systems provide a clean, efficient, affordable and resilient energy solution and\u00a0 come in many different forms, sizes, and setups, designed to meet the unique energy needs of each facility they power.
