2030 CHP – Proposition: 20% of US Capacity 240,900 MW Reduced Annual Energy Consumption with CHP 5.3 Quads Total Annual CO2 Reduction 848 MMT Total Annual Carbon Reduction 231 MMT Number of Car Equivalents Taken Off Road 154 million 1 CHP Installation Database developed by Energy and Environmental Analysis, Inc. for Oak Ridge National Laboratory and U.S. Department of Energy, 2007. www.eea-inc.com up CHP to account for 20 percent of US electricity capacity—several European countries have already exceeded this level—would be equivalent to the CO2 savings of taking 154 million cars off the road. The generating capacity of the more than 3,300 US CHP sites now stands at 85 gigawatts (GW)—almost 9 percent of total US capacity.1 In 2006 CHP produced 506 billion Kilowatt Hour (kWh) of electricity—more than 12 percent of total US power generation for that year. If the United States adopted high-deployment policies to achieve 20 percent of generation capacity from CHP by 2030, it could save an estimated 5.3 quadrillion Btu (Quads) of fuel annually, the equivalent of nearly half the total energy currently consumed by US households.2 Cumulatively through 2030, such policies could also generate $234 billion in new investments3 and create nearly 1 million new highly-skilled, technical jobs4 throughout the United States. CO2 emissions could be reduced by more than 800 million metric tons (MMT) per year, the equivalent of taking more than half of the current passenger vehicles in the US off the road.5 In this 20 percent scenario, over 60 percent of the projected increase in CO2 emissions between now and 2030 could be avoided. While the benefits of added CHP capacity are promising, current market conditions and technical barriers continue to impede full realization of CHP’s potential. Challenges include unfamiliarity with CHP, technology limitations, utility business practices, regulatory ambiguity, environmental permitting approaches that do not acknowledge and reward the energy efficiency and emissions benefits, uneven tax treatment, and interconnection requirements, processes, and enforcement. Addressing these challenges will require a holistic approach involving policy, regulatory, and technical solutions. Improving the fuel efficiency and fuel flexibility of CHP and developing optimized, integrated packaged systems can also lower costs and expand the application of cost-effective CHP. Increasing worldwide energy demand, rising energy prices, and concerns about climate change are driving interest in energy efficiency and renewable energy. There is growing recognition that energy efficiency must be part of any realistic strategy to ease short-term US energy prices and stabilize the long-term energy future. Energy efficiency and renewable energy are key components of a portfolio of promising supply- and demand-side resources that can provide the Nation with clean, affordable energy and support continued economic prosperity. CHP is first and foremost an energy efficiency resource. The cost-effectiveness and near-term viability of CHP development establishes this exciting technology as a leader among other clean energy technologies such as wind, solar, clean coal, biofuels, and nuclear power. As the United States continues to transform the way it produces, transports, and uses energy, it should capitalize on the vast and valuable benefits of CHP. A strategic approach is needed to encourage CHP where it can be applied today and address the challenges discouraging its deployment. A history of success here and abroad proves that a balanced set of policies, incentives, and technology investments can bring sustained CHP growth and realize its enormous potential. 5 2 Based on Energy Information Administration AEO 2008 figure of 11.58 QBtu consumed in the residential sector in 2005. 3 Based on assumed cost of $1,500 per kilowatt-hour installed cost. 4 Based on four jobs created for every $1 million in capital investment. Based on Bureau of Transportation Statistics figure of 251 million registered passenger vehicles in 2006. 4 Combined Heat & Power: Effective Energy Solutions for a Sustainable Future
