Sterling Planet has been involved in multiple facets of the renewable energy asset development including solar, biomass, combined heat & power (CHP) technologies through a sister company, Sterling Energy Assets. Currently Sterling Energy Assets is focusing its development efforts on biomass gasification, combined heat & power applications and solar distribute generation projects . All of these technologies increase improve end user economics and energy efficiency, while reduce carbon emissions.

“Encouraging investments in CHP offers the opportunity for increasing the efficiency of energy-intensive manufacturing, while simultaneously meeting the need for new electric power generation capacity.” - Neal Elliott, associate director at the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy

Combined Heat and Power

Combined Heat & Power (CHP) is an efficient and clean approach to produce useful thermal energy and generating electric power from a single fuel source.  An industrial or commercial facility can use CHP to provide both energy services in one energy-efficient step instead of purchasing electricity from the distribution grid and burning fuel in an on-site furnace or boiler to produce thermal energy.  The enhanced efficiency comes from a system that produces both electrical and thermal output can be utilized.  Sterling Energy Assets can help your facility evaluate the feasibility of on-site CHP and work on your behalf to develop and install CHP systems for host end users where technically feasible and economically viable.
