B&ES publishes CHP guidance
B&ES, the Building & Engineering Services Association, has revised its guidance on good practice for the installation of combined heat and power. TR37 offers a practical overview on CHP for building-services engineers.
It aims to place the installation requirements in the context of the overall construction process and enable effective delivery of an efficiently functioning system and building.
The revised edition is available as an online publication, enabling quick cross-referencing to other useful guidance. Readers should gain a strong understanding of the technology and factors involved in the application of combined heat and power.
Bob Towse, head of B&ES technical and safety at B&ES Publications, said, ‘Climate change, energy costs and energy-supply security are high on the UK Government’s agenda. CHP can help address these issues by reducing CO2 emissions, alleviating fuel poverty and lowering the cost in delivering public services, thereby making energy go further, whether renewable or fossil.’
