CCGT (Combined Cycle Gas Turbines) have widely been accepted as the BAT (Best Available Technique) for large-scale embedded generation. With the recently released emissions drivers from the Environment Agency, there is increasing need for new, emerging technologies for a higher efficiency rating. That solution could be Combined Cooling, Heat and Power (CCHP).

A Few Home Truths About Hydrogen

Hydrogen has considerable potential for the data centre industry. It is very energy-dense, and burning a kilogram of it provides 2.6 times more energy than burning a kilogram of natural gas. When burned in air it produces none of the sulphates or carbon monoxide through which fossil fuels damage air quality both outdoors and in (although it does produce some oxides of nitrogen). Even more attractive for data centre backup, when used in a fuel cell, which uses the reaction between hydrogen and oxygen to produce electricity without combustion, it produces nothing but water.
