To promote Cogeneration, energy cascading, heat recycling and cogen-based Eco Industrial Networks, ThermoShare Inc., has launched COGENCanada, a Federally Incorporated, Ottawa based Non-Profit Association. Cogeneration and Combined Heat and Power (CHP.) are synonyms. Cogeneration is a bilingual, euphonic word. There are links with all parts of Canada & Cogeneration or CHP Associations world wide. There will be advocacy and training functions.

Single purpose thermal electric power plants reject between 50% and 65% of the fuel heat to rivers, lakes, the ocean or the atmosphere. Cogeneration systems use this rejected heat for purposes such as paper drying, chemical processing, food processing, space heating or cooling (absorption chillers).

Target Membership COGENCanada will target industrial process heat and electricity using plants and mills; power plants; Independent Power Producers; equipment suppliers; engineering firms; EPC contractors; electric power utilities; natural gas utilities and marketers; educational institutions; regulators; environmentalists and researchers. There will be appropriate Government links.
Governance-ThermoShare will manage COGENCanada until there are members from which to elect a board of directors. There is a Board of Advisors with world class expertise in gas turbines, steam turbines, boilers, combined cycles; fuel supply and biomass cogeneration. They will help with training. Initially Gordon Robb, Bruce Brown and Charles Robb will be directors. Some members of the board of advisors will likely become directors as will member representatives.
COGENCanada has a data base of all large thermal energy users, all cogeneration systems and all thermal power plants in Canada in some detail. There are equipment information and contact names. The Association has a mailing list (some 8000 names) developed in connection with courses. These COGEN Canada assets and a membership directory will facilitate networking among members
Objectives of COGENCanada
- Strengthen financial incentives to promote combined cycle, biomass, fuel cell and other forms of cogeneration. Class 43.1 is not nearly strong enough to offset economies of scale. A key objective of COGENCanada is to promote policies which ensure that developers building combined cycle power plants take advantage of available cogeneration potential. Work with other associations to develop a common position. Two members of the board of advisors have been involved in developing financial incentives for COGEN at the federal level.
- Ensure that cogeneration is appropriately dealt with in setting emissions caps and in trading emissions credits
- Eliminate barriers to cogeneration such as limits to connection to distribution systems or grids. Support distance-based transmission and backup charges
  • - Convince Governments that Cogeneration can enhance Industrial Competitiveness.
  • - Convince, regulators and grid planners that the appropriate forms of flexible cogeneration near load centers with islanding and selective load-shedding arrangements can avoid costly plant shut downs and help eliminate extended electrical blackouts.
  • -- Develop an appreciation of cogeneration among economists, accountants, industrial developers, financial analysts, lawyers, and politicians.
    • - Work with Economic Development people and other Associations to promote Eco Industrial Networking
  • - Work with Statistics Canada to develop cogeneration statistics for Canada. Also, work with cogenerators and heat users to help them improve cost accounting for cogeneration.
    • - Promote COGEN related Research, Development and Demonstration - Condensing heat recovery, biomass gasification, coal gasification, black liquor gasification, fuel cells etc. COGENCanada has developed and will acquire software for cogeneration cycle analysis and use it to help members
    Benefits of Membership
    - A periodical, COGENCanada Digest ( paper, & email) will provide concise information, analysis and news. Included will be case studies of Canadian & foreign plants, information on fuel supply/price, cogeneration technology, cost accounting for cogeneration plants, policies influencing generators & thermal and electrical energy users, information from ThermoShare courses; case studies, news, analysis, industrial energy, management, summaries of presentations from COGENCanada Conferences and other conferences, new developments, Board of Advisor contributions; & regulatory proceedings related to Cogeneration. Short summaries with references to more detailed sources
    - COGENCanada will deliver Cogeneration courses, workshops, seminars and conferences. ThermoShare’s course attendee list reads like a whose who of power and process Industries. These are now being delivered in the name of COGENCanada. There are testimonials confirming the usefulness of the first COGENCanada Cogeneration Technology and Policy Conference. There are discounts for members. Continuing Education Units awarded and there are opportunities to learn from each other.

  • - Access to Cogeneration related information through COGEN Canada’s Board of Advisors.
  • - Opportunities to network with international contacts including The World Alliance for Decentralized Energy (WADE), COGEN Europe whose membership includes more than 160 power companies, national cogeneration associations, power authorities and companies involved in cogeneration in 30 countries. They have working groups on Policy, and Emission Trading. WADE helps coordinate all this, promotes cogeneration world wide and provides information + advice.
    • - Given environmental benefits of Cogen. COGENCanada membership will bring P R Benefits.
    APPENDIX I


    Benefits of cogeneration:- Single purpose thermal electric power plants reject between 50% and 65% of the fuel heat to rivers, lakes, the ocean or the atmosphere. Cogeneration systems use this rejected heat for purposes such as paper drying, chemical processing, food processing, space heating or cooling (absorption chillers). Cogeneration produces given amounts of electricity and process heat with much less fuel than when they are produced separately. Significantly lower emissions are ensured. Transmission losses are reduced. Cogeneration enhances industrial competitiveness. Gas turbine exhaust can be used in applications where the temperature is too high for steam turbine cogeneration. With appropriate arrangements Cogeneration systems and selected loads can be kept running during grid failures (blackouts). This avoids costly plant shutdowns.


    Cogeneration-based Eco Industrial Networks are the right road to sustainable industrial development. The concept involves grouping industrial processes. Outputs and waste from one process become inputs to others. A utility center with cogeneration obviates the need for proponents of processes to invest in utilities. Economies of scale reduce the cost/kW
    With most steam turbine only systems the electrical output depends on process steam use. Revenue per kWh is much less than if the power were firm. Gas turbines allow combined cycles to generate far more electricity per unit of heat to process than do systems using steam turbines only. The added revenue justifies the use automatic extraction condensing steam turbines. This allows combined cycle cogeneration systems to provide firm power, peaking power and spinning reserve despite changes in process heat flows. Far more electrical revenue is produced than if electrical output depends on process steam flow. Revenue from the high value electricity allows a lower cost steam price. Additional flexibility can be provided by duct burners and steam injection for power augmentation.
    -Quantify the Benefits and Convince Policy Makers The increment of electrical output related to process steam (true cogeneration) should be base loaded. When the grid calls for more load during certain periods, the non COGEN increment is hot and ready to deliver. The kW or kWh of true cogeneration can be determined from steam and condensate flow measurements. Incentives should apply to the true cogeneration increment regardless of total plant capacity.

    If the fuel which would be used by a high efficiency conventional boiler (no cogen) supplying the process steam heat is deducted from the total fuel used by a cogeneration system, the difference is allocated to electricity. In the case of the true cogeneration component of electrical out put this will be about half that used by a single purpose steam electric plant. It will be significantly less than the fuel used by a single purpose combined cycle plant.

    The benefit of cogeneration depends on the fuel displaced from a single purpose power plant by the electrical output of the cogeneration plant. Hydro will not be displaced due to storage and export options. Biomass cogeneration produces no more emissions per unit of fuel burned than would be produced if the material were incinerated or allowed to decay. Biomass cogeneration displaces fossil fuel otherwise used to generate electricity and process steam. Strive to have incentives based on benefit
    APPENDIX II
    The training team includes world class authorities on gas turbines steam turbines boilers and combined cycles. Distance (internet) learning and CDs will be included.
