CoGen
This is, like, wow. I've seen stuff about fuel cells and such but this is something I just cannot wait to see on my door step. The Peak Oil Optimist give me this little treasure:
- The new MCHP system uses natural gas to provide residential heat efficiently, with the added benefit of producing electric power for residential use.
Honda will supply its compact home-use co-generation unit to Climate Energy who will combine it with a furnace or boiler, and market the entire system as an alternative to conventional space heating and electric power in new and existing homes. Working in coordination with state and local authorities as well as energy utilities, limited in-home field test installations will occur by late 2005, with more widespread distribution planned from fall 2006.
