IP develops a range of CHP & CCHP energy systems with technologies such as micro gas turbines, reciprocating engines, fuel cells, etc. Our CHP systems can run on single fuel sources, like natural gas, or can be dual -fired by adding hydrogen to the natural gas. Using NG or hydrogen in the first cycle generates electricity, and the second cycle can use the thermal energy of the exhaust gases to generate hot water or provide heating or cooling, significantly elevating the overall system efficiency.
To provide exceptional control and efficiency for micro-grid solutions, IP uses an advanced real-time AI application, which is managed by a DER agent network that controls the integrated generation systems. The system includes a smart consumption database as well as forecasting algorithms that predict future energy consumption. This real-time mechanism provides a rapid demand response mechanism and an instantaneous energy-use optimization strategy. Analysing real-time performance helps balance consumption and generation, maximizing cost savings and efficiency.
Energy from surplus generation can be stored in batteries to provide a wider range of system configurations and applications. The stored electricity can be consumed as needed or provide energy for electric vehicle fast-charging stations.
Surplus thermal energy can be stored using thermal storage technology that can serve as a buffer to balance CHP or CCHP systems or can be consumed as needed.
An AC or DC EVCS can be used for slow, fast, or ultra-fast EV charging. With a hybrid energy system, the EVCS can be supplied by solar or CHP/CCHP systems, providing a 100% sustainable transportation solution with no electrical consumption from the grid.
