The PUC adopted a policy statement and formed the Working Group at its meeting on April 5 to engage with stakeholders and encourage the deployment of, and reduce barriers to, CHP initiatives in the Commonwealth.
CHP captures the waste heat energy this is typically lost through power generation, using it to provide heating and/or cooling for manufacturing and business.
“CHP offers a variety of benefits,” noted Chairman Gladys M. Brown in a supporting statement at the PUC public meeting,” First and foremost, CHP supports environmental stewardship through increased efficiency. Also, it provides economic benefits to its adopters through reductions in energy consumption. Further, it supports reliability and resiliency as a distributed energy resource.”
The meeting will be held in the Forest Room, Keystone Building, 400 North Street, Harrisburg starting at 1:00. A call-in number will be published, Click Here.
