7. Fuel Cell micro Combined Heat and Power systems (FC mCHP) 1/2v
System description
Produce both heat and electricity for a building using a single fuel. Primarily produces electricity with heat being produced as a by-product.
Well suited to the retrofit market and compatible with new build properties.
Noise and vibration free source of power.
Low local emissions
When heat demand is too large for the system the peak demand boiler will switch on and provide heat. This peak demand boiler operates like a conventional gas boiler.

10. A growing interest at the European policy level
Energy Efficiency Directive (2012/27/EU)
Defines micro-CHP as a cogeneration unit with a maximum capacity below 50 kWe.
Member States shall conduct a comprehensive assessment of introducing high-efficiency CHP & DHC, which shall also consider the potential for micro-CHP.
Member States are encouraged to facilitate the grid connection to micro-cogeneration units.
Simplified notification “install and inform” procedure for the installation of micro-CHP is recommended.
Energy performance of Buildings Directive (2010/31/EU)
Cogeneration, including micro-CHP, is part of the toolbox of energy efficient measures to improve the energy efficiency in buildings.
European Parliament Microgeneration Resolution (adopted on 12th September 2013)
Calls on the Commission to put more emphasis on realising the potential of small scale technologies, including micro-CHP.
Micro-CHP is mentioned as an important small scale technology to save energy in buildings, contributing together with renewables to zero- or positive- energy buildings. v
