2 Cogeneration Definition What is cogeneration Cogeneration: simultaneous production of power and heat, with a view to the practical application of both products

3 Cogeneration Definition What is cogeneration Integrated system Located at or near a building/facility A way of local energy production Uses heat that is lost otherwise (cooling, heating, dehumidification and process heat) Way to use energy more efficient Different areas of application Different technologies

4 Cogeneration Synonyms Cogeneration Combined Heat and Power (CHP) Cooling, Heating and Power (CHP) Trigeneration (Trigen) Integrated Energy Systems (IES) Building Cooling, Heating, and Power (BCHP)

5 Benefits of Cogeneration Improves energy efficiency Conserves natural resources (fossil fuels) Lower emissions (including CO 2 ) Lower energy costs If heat fits demand, cheapest way of electricity production Improves security of supply Reduces transmission and distribution losses Enhances competition

6 Thermodynamics and Cogeneration Thermodynamics: To produce work from heat is necessary a thermal cycle and part of the energy (heat) obtained from the hot reservoir is release to the could reservoir. Carnot Cycle Efficiency T B - Cold reservoir temperature T A - Hot reservoir temperature Cogeneration: Is necessary produce heat at an appropriate temperature (Q u useful Heat).

7 Combined Gas Turbine Cycle The combine Gas turbine cycle can be used as a cogeneration system. Even when useful heat are not produced, there are a recover of heat of the gas turbine in the recover boiler. The generated steam is used tor produce electricity by a Rankine Cycle. The efficiency of the combined cycle is the sum of the efficiency of both Cycles

18 How cogeneration Saves Energy?

19 Thermodynamic Cycles Classification Depending on the temperatures at the thermal energy is used -Bottom Cycles (Heat Power/Work) -Top Cycles (Power/Work Heat) Depending on the Technologies Gas Cycles Gas turbines, Diesel/SI Engines with recovery boiler to produce steam or with the use of flue gases direct on a process (greenhouses, drying processes) Steam Cycles (Rankine cycles) Water/steam is the work fluid. The hot water/steam could be used directly on a process or as a energy transport fluid. Back Pressure Turbines/ Turbinas de Contrapressão (process that need steam at an elevate temperature or at high pressure) Extraction Condensing Turbines/ Turbinas de Extracção/Condensação to maximize the Electric generation Gas turbine combined cycle Gas turbine cycle with a recover boiler to generate steam used in a Rankine Cycle Others: Heat Pumps, Fuel Cells

20 Technologies Main Properties Technology Power (MW) Electric Efficiency Extraction/Condensing Steam Turbine Back Pressure Stream Turbines Gas Turbines Cycles (0.15) Internal Combustion Engines Fuel Cells The efficiency of a Rakine cycle can reach 40 % and the gas turbine combined cycle 55 % For all cases the global efficiency is near 80 % in CHP CHP whit heat pumps have normally a Global Efficiency greater than 100 %

21 Turbine Cycles used on Electric Power Generation Cycle W Q The electric efficiency increase Gas Turbine Steam Turbine Combined Gas Turbine The cycle with the lower electric efficiency allows the use of heat at a higher temperatures Source: Horlock, 1987 In the steam turbine and combined gas turbine cycle to maximize the electric efficiency the heat should be reject at the lower possible temperature

27 DL 23/2010 de 25 de Março de 2012 Adaptation of the European directive 2004/8/CE Defines benefits/premium to the cogenerations sector based on: 1) Reduction of the primary energy consumption and CO 2 emissions 2) Promote the high efficiency cogeneration plants and renewable cogeneration based on renewable sources of energy 3) Promote the integration of Cogeneration in the electricity market Define two exploration regimes General regime (all capacity): The market define the energy price (temporary-benefit/premium for Plant with Electric capacity < 100 MW) Special regime (Electric capacity < 100 MW): The market define the Heat price The tariff of the electricity have benefit/premium based on the efficiency

28 Portaria 140/2012 de 14 de Maio de 2012 Review of the Cogeneration Electric Tariff Reference tariff for the Natural Gas, LPG or liquid Fuel (except Fueloil) Cogeneration Plants: /MWh for Electric capacity < 10 MW /MWh for Electric capacity between 10 MW and 20 MW /MWh for Electric capacity between 20 MW and 50 MW /MWh for Electric capacity between 50 MW and 100 MW Reference tariff for the Cogeneration from renewable sources: /MWh for Electric capacity < 2 MW /MWh for Electric capacity between 2 MW and 100 MW Reference tariff for the Fueloil Cogeneration Plants: /MWh for Electric capacity < 10 MW /MWh for Electric capacity between 10 MW and 100 MW Hora ponta/hours with high electricity demand + 10% Vazio e supervazio/ hours with low electricity demand -13 %

29 Prémios de eficiência / Efficiency premium a) PEm Efficiency premium value in month m b) PC Reference costs for the valorization of Primary Energy saving /MWh c) PEP Primary energy savings (certified) d) EEPlm Net electric energy generated by the cogeneration plant in month m (total electric energy generated electric energy consumed by the Cogeneration Plant) e) K Primary energy saved differentiates factor (0.5 to high efficient cogeneration plant and 0.3 efficient plant) f) EP/EE Ratio between the Primary Energy consumed by the Cogeneration Plant and the Electric energy generated (typical values)

30 Ratio EP/EE i) Natural gas Internal combustion engines: 2.86 ii) Gas Turbines (Natural Gas) eclectic capacity < 20 MWe: 3.70 iii) Gas Turbines (Natural Gas) eclectic capacity > 20 MWe: 3.12 iv) Fueloil Internal combustion engines: 2.60 v) Steam turbines: 5 vi) Combined gas turbines: 2.5 vii) Renewable cogenerations plats: 5

31 Portaria 140/2012 de 14 de Maio de 2012 Transition Regime: Plants with electric capacity > 20 MW The transition to the new remuneration regime occurs at the beginning of the month following the EEGO audit (EEGO - entity that certifies the primary energy savings) For all other cases the transition occurs in the following quarter During the extension period, the reference tariff for no renewable installations is depreciated annually by one percent, for installation with a capacity of 20 MW or less

32 Portaria 140/2012 de 14 de Maio de 2012 Cogeneration Classification: According to capacity -< 1 MW Small Cogeneration -< 50 kw Micro Cogeneration (Biomass Plant Electric capacity < 3.68 kwe have a subsidized regime DL 363/2007) introduces efficiency levels : -high efficient cogeneration plant: -Efficiency: Other cases

33 Electric Energy Certification The electricity produced in cogeneration plant with high efficiency is certified based on a series of data (fuel, amount of heat used, PEP, CO 2 emissions) EEGO Is the entity responsible for certificates the Cogenerations electrical energy (and control the CO 2 emissions) DGEG Is the entity that identify the high efficiency Cogenerations Plants. For the installations type a) and c) the annual global efficiency as to be > 80 % For the installations type b), d), e), f), and g) as to be > 75 % When the annual global efficiency are lower, the C implicit value is used to calculate the: E CHP = H CHP /C

34 Cogenerations Installations Types Implicit ratio C = E/H a) Combined gas turbine cycle with heat recover 0.95 b) Back pressure steam turbines 0.45 c) Extraction/condensing steam turbine 0.45 d) Gas turbine wit heat recovery 0.55 e) Internal combustion Engines 0.75 f) Microturbines g) Stirling Engines h) FuelCells i) Steam Engines j) Rankine Organic Cycles l) Other technologies Technologies for small plants

35 Economics Cogeneration Economics Analysis Costs: Capital Operation and maintenance Fuel Benefits: Heat Electricity less purchase sell to grid Economic value of cogeneration Depends very much on tariff system Heat: avoided cost of separate heat production Electricity: less purchase (kwh); sale of surplus electricity and peak shaving (kwe) Carbon credits

36 Economic Analysis PT-Payback Time \ Tempo de retorno do investimento NPV - Net Present Value \ VAL Valor Atual líquido IRR - Internal Rate of Return \ TIR Taxa interna de Rentabilidade The Payback time in a first approach is determine by: PT = Initial Investment / Annual Cash flow Cash flow= (Revenues - Expenses) NPV/VAL: CF i Cash Flow in year i I i Investment value in year i a i Discount Rate (the rate of return that could be earned on an investment in the financial markets with similar risk.); the opportunity cost of capital i time period TIR/IRR- The discount rate that makes the net present value of all cash flows from a particular project equal to zero. Generally speaking, the higher a project's internal rate of return, the more desirable it is to undertake the project.

37 Economic Analysis IRR - Example Year (i) Cash flow (i) In this case r = 5.96%

38 Economical Parameters The Fuel price/cost The Electricity price/cost The useful heat price/cost The cost of the useful heat depends of the temperature level at the heat is used. Price-weighted Global Efficiency / Factor de utilização de energia ponderado pelo preço Heat approximate costs (Investment costs not included) Fuel Heat /kwh(η T = 90 %) Propane/Butane Gas LGP 0.09 Natural Gas 0.05 Diesel for heat 0.05 *Heat pump (Cop = 4) 0.03 *Heat pump produce heat by a compressor cycle (using electricity) PE = 0.1
