Cogen

Cogen, short for cogeneration, is a highly efficient energy system that produces both electricity and useful heat from a single fuel source, such as natural gas or biomass. Unlike traditional power plants that waste heat, cogen captures and uses this heat for heating buildings, industrial processes, or hot water, improving overall energy efficiency. This integrated approach reduces fuel consumption, lowers operating costs, and minimizes environmental impact. Cogen systems are commonly used in factories, hospitals, and campuses where consistent energy and heat are needed.
