The Maine National Guard project came online four years ago, and the Combined Heat and Power (CHP) system provides energy resilience and enhances Army readiness to directly support the warfighter.
CHP, or cogeneration, is the use of an engine or power station to generate electricity and to use waste heat for heating or cooling purposed. This method is more efficient than conventional systems where the heat from generating electricity is wasted.
The Army must be ready and be prepared for the threats of tomorrow, while caring for our Soldiers, Family Members, and Army Civilians.
The Army’s top priorities are Readiness, Modernization, and Reform.
Energy and water resilience enables Army Readiness.
