The need for a resilient, agile and reliable energy infrastructure is critical for the growth of the economy and its decarbonisation of infrastructure. Developed and developing countries both have their own challenges to address; while the cost of grid reinforcement is significant for developed countries, reliable grid availability is what developing countries require to flourish. In both scenarios, successful deployment of efficient distributed power generation systems will play a significant role. However, distributed power generation deployment has its own barriers; high cost of ownership and long return on investment time. The outcome of this project will be a semi-renewable micro combined heat and power system called the SolarTurbo-CHP, capable of generating 3.44 kW of power and 25 kW of heat simultaneously. SolarTurbo-CHP will be tailored to South African market needs and its high solar irradiance opportunity. SolarTurbo-CHP aims to improve energy accessiblity in remote locations, increase energy efficiency (up to 90%), reduce CO2 emission by 30%, and reduce energy cost by 30% by generating power as by-product of heat as well as taking advantage of free solar energy when available.

对弹性，灵活和可靠的能源基础设施的需求对于经济增长和基础设施的脱碳至关重要。发达国家和发展中国家都有自己的挑战需要解决;虽然加强电网的成本对发达国家来说很大，但可靠的电网供应是发展中国家蓬勃发展所需要的。在这两种情况下，成功部署高效的分布式发电系统将发挥重要作用。然而，分布式发电部署有其自身的障碍;拥有成本高，投资回报时间长。该项目的成果将是一个名为SolarTurbo-CHP的半可再生微型热电联产系统，能够同时产生3.44千瓦的电力和25千瓦的热量。SolarTurbo-CHP将根据南非市场的需求及其高太阳辐照度的机会进行定制。SolarTurbo-CHP旨在改善偏远地区的能源可及性，提高能源效率（高达90%），减少30%的二氧化碳排放量，并通过发电作为热量的副产品以及利用免费的太阳能来降低30%的能源成本。
