Carbon Reduction

ReliaFlex systems leverage carbon reductions by up to 10x previous energy systems by increasing efficiency and shifting to clearer fuels.

The implementation of a ReliaFlex Combined Heat and Power (CHP) system provides an efficient path to the gradual reduction of fossil fuel use in the United States.  Buildings account for over 40% of the energy use in the United States and are voracious users of electricity. 

A great deal of the value provided by Combined Heat and Power results from the onsite generation of electrical power, which reduces the fossil fuels required at central utility plants.  According to the Department of Energy, for every 1 unit of electricity generated and consumed onsite, 3.6 units of fossil fuel energy are saved.   Since clean burninging Natural Gas contains only 25% of the carbon content of typical Coal fuel, every unit of electricity produced by a ReliaFlex CHP system can reduce carbon intensity by a factor of 10. 

Leveraged Carbon Reduction occurs when energy efficiency is increased and electricity generation is shifted from a carbon intensive fuel like coal or heavy oil to a less carbon intensive fuel like natural gas.

BHP Energy will work with you as part of the consulting process to determine if carbon intensity reduction can add financial value to your project either immediately or in the future.
