Dalkia delivers CHP cost and carbon benefits to Tesco

08 December, 2009

Cogenco, Dalkia’s specialist CHP subsidiary, is adding to the 20 installations at Tesco stores.

As part of Tesco’s plans to halve carbon emissions from its buildings by 2020, Cogenco has installed 20 CHP units in a number of stores, with more planned. Typically, a saving of about £45 000 a year can be made on a site operating a 200 kW CHP plant, resulting in a carbon saving of 325 t.

David Shevioff, sales director of Cogenco, the specialist CHP subsidiary of Cogenco, said, ‘The installation of small-scale CHP is ideal for retail sites such as Tesco’s stores due to the high demand for both heat and power throughout the day. This provides a financially viable alternative to off-grid energy procurement, while also contributing to Tesco’s green agenda.’
