The 28 pages that link to Combined heat and power, each with the reason it gives.

• Internal combustion engineRelated: Stationary engines can supply electricity while their waste heat serves buildings or industry.

• Steam turbineRelated: Turbine exhaust or extracted steam can supply industrial processes or district heating.

• Fuel cellRelated: Stationary fuel cells can make use of both electrical output and reaction heat.

• Anaerobic digestionRelated: Engines can use digester biogas to supply power and recoverable heat.

• BiofuelRelated: Biomass and biogas can supply both outputs in one installation.

• District heatingRelated: Power stations can supply district networks with heat that would otherwise be wasted.

• Combined-cycle power plantCompared with: It also captures heat, but typically delivers heat for use rather than converting it in a steam cycle.

• MicrogridRelated: Capturing generator waste heat can improve a microgrid's overall fuel efficiency.

• Distributed generationBroader topic: Facilities can use local generators for electricity while capturing heat that centralized plants often discard.

• BoilerRelated: Some boiler-based plants supply both turbine power and recoverable heat.

• Stirling engineRelated: A Stirling system can supply electricity while recovering heat from its cooler.

• BiogasRelated: Biogas engines can generate electricity while recovering engine heat.

• ExergyRelated: Exergy distinguishes valuable electrical output from lower-grade heat output.

• Waste heatBroader topic: It makes rejected heat a planned output alongside electricity.

• ElectrificationCompared with: It illustrates the efficiency tradeoff between electrifying heat and using fuel onsite.

• Solid oxide fuel cellRelated: High-temperature exhaust can serve heating or industrial processes alongside electrical generation.

• Electricity generationRelated: It uses thermal output that conventional electricity-only generation often rejects.

• Waste heat recoveryRelated: It makes use of power-generation exhaust that would otherwise be discarded.

• Load followingCompared with: Heat demand can constrain how freely a combined heat and power plant follows electricity demand.

• Fossil fuel power stationRelated: A station can supply nearby buildings or industry with heat that would otherwise be wasted.

• Thermodynamic efficiencyBroader topic: Counting both useful outputs can yield a higher total fuel-use efficiency than electricity alone.

• Building services engineeringCompared with: It offers an on-site generation option with different efficiency and emissions trade-offs.

• CogenerationRelated: This is the standard engineering name for cogeneration systems.

• Small modular reactorRelated: An SMR could supply process heat alongside electricity to nearby facilities.

• Gas-fired power plantRelated: Gas-fired plants can supply captured heat to nearby buildings or industrial processes.

• MicrogenerationNarrower topic: Micro combined heat and power is its small-scale form.

• Energy engineeringBroader topic: Using both outputs can reduce wasted energy at suitable sites.

• Energy sourceRelated: Using both outputs can make fuel-based generation more efficient.
