LBM and Combined Heat and Power (CHP) - new problems, new fuel
There is much debate and concern relating not only to the cost of energy but also the availability of supply. As part of energy strategy, decentralised grids will form an essential role in ensuring supplies and reliable costs base. LBM is the only waste-derived, storable, renewable energy source that is capable of separation in both time and geography from its place of origin. As such its use as a fuel source for decentralised Combined Heat and Power (CHP) provides for carbon neutral heat power for key buildings and installations essential for supporting commerce and the community.
This application qualifies for environmental subsidies such as the benefits derived from Renewable Obligation Certificates (ROCs) while effectively reducing the carbon footprint of the operation it services.
The fuel burns cleanly and quietly and therefore represents a preferred fuel for the 21st Century, which could form the foundation on which renewable power systems can be established.
