Combined Heat & Power Using the Infinia Concentrated Solar CHP PowerDish System

Abstract

This Project, hosted by the Department of the Army at Fort Carson, Colorado, during of Fall 2011 through early 2013 demonstrated the capabilities of the Infinia PowerDish? CHP technology to generate clean solar thermal and electric energy compatible with domestic and forward operating base (FOB) power, domestic hot water and space heat requirements AND was a successful step in the development of a commercial Combined Heat and Power (CHP ) PowerDishTM system for potential use in military, commercial, and residential applications.
