A brief description of cogeneration technologies deployed:
The SIUC steam plant produces steam for campus heating and cooling from natural gas and coal boilers. Our circulating fluidized bed (CFB) coal boiler produces high pressure steam, all of which is directed through a back-pressure turbine and 3.5 MW generator before leaving the plant. Electric co-gen production depends entirely on the campus steam load. Co-gen provides roughly 16% of main campus electric energy annually at a generation efficiency of roughly 80%, compared to roughly 31% for electricity purchased from the grid.
