Cogeneration at Iowa Methodist Medical Center
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
The Iowa Methodist Medical Center of Des Moines, Iowa, is installing two 1,500 kW Fairbanks-Morse
turbocharged dual-fuel reciprocating engine-generators.
The system will be installed with recovery
of exhaust waste heat ...
The Role of Feasibility Analysis in Successful Cogeneration
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
Although the energy crisis has given
new impetus to cogeneration, many of the
considerations that led to its decline
during the 20th century still remain. The
long hiatus of cogeneration, its
reintroduction in new ...
Innovative Utility Pricing for Industry
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
The electric utility industry represents only
one source of power available to industry. Although
the monopolistic structure of the electric
utility industry may convey a perception that an
electric utility is unaffected ...
New Technology and Energy Alternatives
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
This paper discusses cogeneration, peak shaving,
interruptible power and "on-site" generation as
alternatives to purchasing traditional electrical
power. Equipment used and case histories,
including economics of the ...
The Influence of Regulation on the Decision to Cogenerate
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
This paper will be primarily on the Public
Utility Commission of Texas' Substantive Rules
that explicitly address cogeneration
(Section 23.66). The original rules, which were
implemented following the mandate of the ...
The Effect of Variable Quality Fuels on Cogeneration Plant Performance
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
The variable energy characteristics of solid wastes,
biomass and other low grade fuels, when utilized in
cogeneration applications, introduce several additional
plant design considerations. The effects of
longer term ...
Design for, and Evaluation of Life Cycle Performance
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
Project evaluation necessarily requires
performance estimates over the project life
cycle. In contrast to new and clean conditions,
extended life performance inherently
introduces additional complexity and variability
in ...
Industrial Cogeneration Application
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
Cogeneration is the sequential use of a single
fuel source to generate electrical and thermal
energy. It is not a new technology but an old,
proven one whose interest has been reawakened.
American Standard has had ...

(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
This paper presents an overview of
General Motor's energy efficiency
program over the past decades with
special emphasis on current activities
and a crystal ball look into the future.
Included is a description of the ...
