Cogeneration of energy
Session
Energy Efficiency Engineering
Description
Cogeneration is the process of producing electricity and thermal energy at the same time. Generating energy through this process means using only one energy source, which results in higher energy efficiency. In the energy crisis the world is facing, cogeneration is being considered as a promising alternative for reducing environmental pollution, increasing energy security, supporting the energy transition and economic stability. This paper will describe the cogeneration process and its role in the energy sector, how cogeneration affects energy efficiency and what are the main benefits of this process.
