Principle The principle is that a gas or oil fuelled engine drives a generator that produces electricity. The heat from the engine block, oil cooler and exhaust, which would normally be wasted is absorbed by coolant water throug a high efficency heat exchanger specially developed by EC Power. This energy, stored as hot water is then usable directly for central heating, hot domestic water, or indirectly for air conditioning. In general, the production of 1 kilowatt of power creates 2 kilowatts of usable heat energy. All EC Power solutions consist of a co-generation unit powered by natural gas or diesel, a heat storage system and an advanced computer management package. Accessories such as heat pumps and / or boilers can be added to become an integral part of the complete control system. The EC Power solution is an open platform that can be implemented into any new or existing installation. Improve Efficiency by 100% The extremely high efficiency of EC Power Micro CHP systems is dramatically superseeding ordinary energy technology. By comparison, traditional electricity production has an efficiency of only 30 - 40%. Thus, the EC Power Combined Heat and Power solution can reduce energy bills by 40 - 60%, or increase efficiency by more than 100% - a considerable improvement. Furthermore, the EC Power solution will reduce future investments in the energy infrastructure. By decentralising energy production, the need for new, regional transmission systems for heating and power will be diminished and transmission losses, a substantial cost factor in any centralised energy supply system, will be greatly reduced or become non-existent.

Simple Installation Installation is simple and fast, occupying only minimal space. Our largest system, the XRGI 17 only requires 2 square meters (18 square feet) of floorspace, even though it is capable of producing 17 kilowatts of electricity and 24 kilowatts of heat. The system arrives pre-engineered and fully automated. It consists of a prime mover cabinet (comprising an engine, generator and exhaust heat exchanger), a heat storage system and an advanced computer management package. Accessories such as heat pumps and/or gas/oil fired boilers can be added to become an integral part of the complete control system. Commissioning is carried out by our qualified engineers to ensure a quick and effective installation. The EC Power solution is an open platform that can be implemented into any new or existing installation.
