Abstract

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 industrial installations, are included. Sites range in size from 650 kW to 22.0 MW. All systems use reciprocating engine generators as prime movers.
