Description

In 2019, a factory specialized in plastic products together with DTC Soluciones, implemented a cogeneration system with natural gas to cover part of its electrical demand and, at the same time, feed an absorption chiller by recovering waste heat. This integration allowed them to achieve significant operational and energy benefits.

A 600 kW distributed generation unit, fueled by natural gas, was installed and configured to operate in cogeneration with heat recovery. The waste heat was channeled to an absorption chiller, reducing the electrical load on the industrial air conditioning system.
