Alternative Power: Benefits of Combined Heat & Power, and Landfill Gas

*********************************
There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups.

Full Summary: A panel discussion sponsored by the Georgia Tech Clean Energy Speaker Series. 

A panel discussion sponsored by the Georgia Tech Clean Energy Speaker Series. 

Abstract:
Combined heat and power (CHP) technology can provide critical facilities (e.g. hospitals, wastewater treatment), businesses, institutions, and communities with more resilient and reliable heat and power, while at the same time reducing energy costs and harmful emissions.  Complimenting CHP technology is methane gas from landfills, which is often overlooked as a viable, cost-effective input for generating power via CHP.  (Landfills are the third largest source of anthropogenic methane gas produced in the United States.)

Speakers include:

  • Marilyn Brown, Professor, Public Policy Georgia Institute of Technology
  • Richard Crowther, PE, Manager, Sustainability Coca-Cola Refreshments
  • Isaac Panzarella, PE, Director, U.S. DOE Southeast CHP Technical Assistance North Carolina State University
  • Richard Sedano, Director, Regulatory Assistance Project
