CHP in Newcastle upon Tyne

The paper covers the development of a combined heat and power scheme, with an associated community heating network, in the centre of the city of Newcastle upon Tyne. The scheme would comprise a gas fired gas turbine driven electricity generator to provide electrical energy to a major hospital complex and the adjacent university. Waste heat from the gas turbine would be used to displace or supplement existing boiler plant in the hospital and university and also in those municipal buildings (including a second university) in the centre of the city connected to the community heating network
