Description
In this paper, the role of the utility in promoting mechanical heat recovery systems and their effect on industry/utility load profiles, thermal economics, and alternative fuel selection are discussed. These systems include applied heat pumps, thermal storage, and load control. The discussions will compare these systems to boiler operations and cogeneration.
The paper will explain how mechanical heat recovery systems can be integrated into the overall thermal plant of an industry to obtain maximum thermal efficiency, low-cost energy, and production improvements and / or redundancy. It will also show how existing boiler plants are improved and cogeneration potential is reduced. The steps a utility should take to influence acceptance and installation of these systems is developed.
