Hospitals and Care Facilities

CHP is an excellent energy resource for hospitals as it can provide all of a hospital’s energy services efficiently and indefinitely during grid outages. In addition, CHP helps hospitals reduce costs and meet sustainability, reliability, and emissions reduction goals. CHP can provide a hospital’s entire energy supply year-round. Often, a hospital’s electricity and heating, cooling, or steam needs come from separate power systems. CHP combines those systems to create a more efficient, cost-effective facility.

Benefits of CHP at Hospitals:

• Resilience
• Efficiency
• Cost Saving
• Emissions Reducing

Save Money.

Increase Reliability.

Be Sustainable.
