OSTI ID:5816905

Objective of the study was to provide details for the distribution of technically and economically feasible cogeneration opportunities by prime mover type, fuel consumed, and nameplate capacity, with cross-cuts according to location (state) and industrial sector. Thirteen combinations of prime mover/fuel type were considered: steam turbines (coal, residual oil, distillate oil, natural gas), gas turbines (residual oil, distillate oil, natural gas), gas turbine combined cycle systems (residual oil, distillate oil, natural gas), and diesel engines (residual oil, distillate oil, natural gas). The cogeneration systems investigated all represent commercially available, state-of-the-art technology.
