CHP: A Key Part of Our Energy Future
- Form of Distributed
Generation (DG)
- An integrated system
- Located at or near a
building/facility
- Provides at least a
portion of the electrical load and
- Uses thermal energy
for:
– Space Heating/Cooling – Process Heating/Cooling – Dehumidification
CHP provides efficient, clean, reliable, affordable energy – today and for the future
SLIDE 4
Defining Combined Heat and Power (CHP)
The on-site simultaneous generation of two forms of energy (heat and electricity) from a single fuel/energy source

Common CHP Technologies and Generating Capacity Ranges
SLIDE 7
What Are the Benefits of CHP?
- CHP is more efficient than separate
generation of electricity and heat
- Higher efficiency translates to lower
- perating costs
- Higher efficiency reduces emissions of all
pollutants
- CHP can also increase energy reliability and
enhance power quality
SLIDE 8
CHP is Used Nationwide in Several Types of Buildings
81 GW installed at > 4,300 sites Avoids 241M tons
- f CO2 each year
SLIDE 9
CHP Today in Ohio
- 527 MW of installed CHP at
- ver 59 industrial and
commercial facilities
- Primary Metals comprises 226
MW of CHP capacity

AEP Ohio’s CHP Program
AEP Ohio is offering incentives to customers for eligible CHP projects
- AEP Ohio business customers
- Targeting Industrial, Institutional and
Commercial
SLIDE 11
Ohio Law states what systems can receive an incentive
As Defined by SB 310
- Combined Heat and Power is “the coproduction
- f electricity and useful thermal energy from the
same fuel source…”
– “…designed to achieve thermal-efficiency levels of at least sixty percent” – “…with at least twenty percent of the system's total useful energy in the form of thermal energy”*

AEP Ohio CHP Program Incentives
Systems > 1000 kW
- Incentive rate – 3.5 cents per Net kWh generated in the 1st year
- Payment may be split over 1 to 5 years
Systems < 1000 kW
- Incentive rate - 5 cents per Net kWh generated in the 1st year
- Payment period of 1 year
Caps
- $400,000 cap per project per year
SLIDE 13
Current Projects
2 projects have completed 2 projects are in the 12- month metering period 4 projects are under construction 3 projects are pending application completion
Increasing interest in CHP technology Projects total 302,000,000 kWh generated annually
