Principle
A Combined Heat and Power (CHP) unit basically produces electrical power with a combustion engine. The heat, which is normally lost in vehicles, for example, is recovered from the generator, engine and exhaust system and can be used for local heating purposes. http://www.marathonengine.com/cogeneration.html |
Whats the point of the system being efficient, & no insulation on the air ducts?
