The preliminary design and cost analysis of a proposed Integrated Community Energy System (ICES) to serve a multi-million square footage medical complex of the Health Education Authority of Louisiana are presented. This ICES is designed as a multi-fuel plant (coal or natural gas), operation is to begin in 1982, and the system will initially supply 40 x 10/sup 6/ kWh of electric power and 854 x 10/sup 0/ lbs of steam annually to meet the heating, refrigeration, and power demands of the complex. The total construction cost of the ICES is estimated as $35 million. (LCL)
