Gas Malaysia Bhd (Gas Malaysia) remains steadfast in its commitment to solidify its position as a provider of innovative energy solutions through its Combined Heat and Power (CHP) technology.
The CHP system, also known as cogeneration, generates both electricity and heat from a single fuel source.
Gas Malaysia chief executive officer Ahmad Hashimi Abdul Manap said this technology is particularly beneficial for industrial sector customers who require both electricity and thermal energy, such as steam or hot water.
"Gas Malaysia Energy Advance Sdn Bhd (GMEA), a joint venture between Gas Malaysia and Tokyo Gas Engineering Solutions Corporation (TGES), is spearheading the CHP business. GMEA operates three plants with a combined capacity to generate 41.7 MW of electricity, 165 tph of steam and 1,684 kW of hot water, with a potential to reduce about 72,261 tonnes of carbon dioxide per year," he said in a statement today.
