Document Description
The purpose of this project is to develop and demonstrate two high efficiency, near-zero NOx emission, micro-scale combined heat and power systems. The systems, sized at 4.5 kW and 25 kW, will first undergo laboratory testing in order to verify compliance with California Air Resources Board (CARB) Distributed Generation (DG) emissions standards and obtain CARB DG certification. The 4.5 kW and 25 kW systems will then be demonstrated at a commercial building and recreation center, respectively, in order to generate real-world operational data.
