The global combined heat and power (CHP) market for commercial buildings is forecast to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of nearly 8 percent from 2015 to 2019, according to a new report from Technavio.

Johnson Controls joined with U.S. Army senior commanders at Aberdeen Proving Ground (APG) in Maryland to break ground on a new combined heat and power (CHP) plant designed to save the Army nearly $113 million over 19 years and provide reliable energy service to mission-critical facilities.

Policymakers, utilities, and building owners in a growing number of countries are becoming more interested in commercial CHP systems due to concerns about grid reliability, demand for electricity, and greenhouse gas emissions. 

A $2 million grant through Pennsylvania's Alternative and Clean Energy (ACE) program will help Duquesne University upgrade its Energy Center, which generates the bulk of electricity for the campus, with a clean-burning, natural gas turbine generator. This marks the largest state grant that Duquesne has ever received.

GE and project partners Kofler Energies and BELECTRIC announced they are putting a hybrid power plant into operation in Berlin that combines solar photovoltaic with combined heat and power (CHP) technology and battery storage.
