Fuel Cell micro Combined Heat and Power systems (FC mCHP) 1/2
System descriptionProduce both heat and electricity for a building using a single fuel. Primarily produces electricity with heat being produced as a by-product.Well suited to the retrofit market and compatible with new build properties.Noise and vibration free source of power.Low local emissionsSource: Fuel Cell Handbook (fifth edition), EG&G Services Parsons, Inc., 2000. and Fundamental physics and chemistry of direct electrochemical oxidation in SOFC (see www.ene.field.eu)
When heat
demand is too large for
the system the peak
demand boiler will switch on and provide
heat.
This peak demand boiler operates
like a conventional gas
boiler.

A growing interest at the European policy level
Energy Efficiency Directive (2012/27/EU)Defines micro-CHP as a cogeneration unit with a maximum capacity below 50 kWe.Member States shall conduct a comprehensive assessment of introducing high-efficiency CHP & DHC, which shall also consider the potential for micro-CHP.Member States are encouraged to facilitate the grid connection to micro-cogeneration units.Simplified notification “install and inform” procedure for the installation of micro-CHP is recommended.Energy performance of Buildings Directive (2010/31/EU)Cogeneration, including micro-CHP, is part of the toolbox of energy efficient measures to improve the energy efficiency in buildings.
European Parliament
Microgeneration
Resolution (adopted on 12th
September 2013)
Calls
on the Commission to put more emphasis on
realising
the potential of small scale technologies, including
micro-CHP.
Micro-CHP is mentioned as an important small scale technology to save energy in buildings, contributing together with renewables to zero- or positive- energy
buildings.
