Cogeneration for a utility-co-owned industrial park. Volume 1. Executive summary. Final report
This is volume one of a four-volume final report presenting the methods and results of a feasibility study of four proposed cogeneration industrial/business parks located near existing electric generating stations. Three utilities participated in the study: Baltimore Gas and Electric (BG and E) with a site near Baltimore, Maryland; Southern California Edison (SCE) with two sites near Ontario, California; and Virginia Power Company with a site near Richmond, Virginia. The BG and E site provided thermal energy from an existing power station and also from a new facility burning corporate solid waste and sewage treatment plant sludge. One SCE site provided a portion of the thermal energy from an existing power station and a portion from a new combined-cycle facility. The second SCE site provided all of the thermal energy from a new combined-cycle facility. The Virginia Power Company site provided all the thermal energy from an existing power station. The concepts were all technically feasible and all met the economic criteria set as a minimum by each utility.
