This page comprises links to an archive of papers relating to micro CHP, the technologies,
applications and potential impacts on the home and the energy supply
infrastructure. It also includes some papers on related subjects
such as other microgeneration technologies.
Although papers will be added on an ongoing basis, please note that the
actual, individual
papers will not be changed, so check the publication date to see how
relevant they are...and to see how wrong my predictions were! |
