随着全球燃料储备的枯竭,将需要更有效的替代能源生产和输送方式。热电联产与区域供热(CHP-DH)提供了一种替代能源生产和输送机制,与许多流行的替代方案相比,这种机制资源密集程度较低,能源效率更高,能源安全性更高。本文介绍了英国几个运行的CHP-DH网络之间的比较分析,这些网络包括:阿伯丁,巴肯廷,沃金,南安普顿,诺丁汉和谢菲尔德。我们将会发现,热电联产网络的经济可行性取决于几个因素,即:(1)工程和设计原则的优化;(2)组织和监管框架,最后;(3)金融经济因素。研究发现,从长远来看,水电与电力和天然气等其他能源供应和分配技术具有竞争力。然而,在中短期内,经济风险、监管不确定性和现有技术的锁定是实施CHP-DH网络的最大障碍。
As global fuel reserves are depleted, alternative and more efficient forms of energy generation and delivery will be required. Combined Heat and Power with District Heating (CHP-DH) provides an alternative energy production and delivery mechanism that is less resource intensive, more energy efficient and provides greater energy security than many popular alternatives. This article presents a comparative analysis between several operational CHP-DH networks across the UK, these include: Aberdeen, Barkantine, Woking, Southampton, Nottingham and Sheffield. It will be shown that the economic viability of CHP-DH networks depends on several factors, namely: (1) the optimisation of engineering and design principles; (2) organisational and regulatory frameworks, and finally; (3) financial and economic factors. It was found that in the long term DH is competitive with other energy supply and distribution technologies such as electricity and gas. However, in the short to medium term it is shown that economic risk, regulatory uncertainty and lock-in of existing technology are the most significant barriers to the implemention of CHP-DH networks.
