American DG Energy and Pepco Well Positioned as Coke eBay and More Employ Cogeneration Systems
ACCESSWIRE - Tue Mar 11, 9:08AM CDT
Whitefish, MT / March 11, 2014 / For decades the world has depended on inefficiently burning fossil fuels for its energy needs, but with the boom in U.S. shale gas production recently and government support of cleaner technologies, combined heat and power (CHP) systems are rising in popularity. CHP, also known as cogeneration, more efficiently and reliably supplies energy needs in commercial and industrial applications where there is continuous demand for both electricity and heat. Navigant Research stated this month that "the confluence of a number of drivers points to renewed interest in this proven technology [CHP] platform across all regions." The market research firm forecasts worldwide revenue from industrial CHP to rise from $19.7 billion in 2013 to $29.8 billion in 2023. On that point, the increased use of CHP has created significant growth opportunities for leaders in the industry, such as Pepco Energy Services, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Pepco Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: POM) and American DG Energy, Inc. (NYSE MKT: ADGE).
