At Dalkia Aegis, EDF Group, we are recognized for our energy efficiency solutions, primarily combined heat and power (CHP). In fact, CHP has been acknowledged by the U.S. Department of Energy as a solution for a greener tomorrow. As we lead the charge on efficiency, it is also crucial that we use it in conjunction with renewable energy strategies like wind and solar power.

How well do you understand Combined Heat and Power (CHP)? If you’re not sure, then it’s time to take you back to school for the CHP Basics. In this blog we’ll teach you the ABCs of CHP so you can learn how Dalkia Aegis, EDF Group can utilize this system to benefit your facility. 

Senior living homes saw a steady occupancy decline in 2020. To compensate, facilities have had to find ways to cut costs, without sacrificing the quality of life standards for their tenants.

Through this blog, we’ll explain how Combined Heat and Power (CHP) can provide cost-savings during periods of low occupancy at senior living homes.

Believe it or not, 2020 has come to an end, and it’s time to start working toward your New Year’s resolutions for 2021. If energy efficiency isn’t topping your business’ list already, it could be a smart and cost-effective option to consider. We’ll explain how you can make energy savings a top goal for 2021, and how we can help.

Being in the business we are in, we’ve done a good job helping our customers prepare for unexpected energy issues, suggesting Combined Heat and Power (CHP) as a reliable solution—in terms of both energy production, consumption—and costs.
