Combined heat and power for the home

Jump to Comments

lrg_microchp_roomshot.jpgBaxi are talking up their new micro-CHP boiler:

“The combined heat and power (CHP) unit generates 1kW of electricity per hour using a Free Piston Stirling Engine. Any extra electricity needed can be supplemented from the National Grid. In addition, any electricity generated by the unit that is surplus to requirement may be sold back to the National Grid.” 

It would be nice to see some published figures from their test houses where they have been in use for 12 months or so. Available early 2009.
