It is important to evaluate the potential costs and benefits of your planned installation before you buy any equipment.
There is a step-by-step guide to evaluating CHP projects posted on this Web site, most of which is applicable to other distributed energy projects. It takes you through the data required for project evaluation, project feasibility studies, cost calculations, and the criteria for a go-no-go decision on project implementation.
There are also a variety of software tools and on-line guides that provide assistance with evaluating and developing distributed energy projects posted in our Toolbox. Tools include software for conducting life-cycle cost analyses and assessing the environmental impacts of distributed generation technologies.
